help installing.
so, i was planning on installing the VIM i ordered from JHP which seems like it should be fairly easy. the backup camera doesn't look like it's going to be that hard as long as i know where to wire it's power from. problem is i don't. now, i haven't opened up the panels to expose the side of the radio yet or done any other sort of prepping. i just want to know for sure where everything will go and plug into before i actually start.
here's the license plate frame camera:
here's the 23' extension cable the camera plugs into:
and finally the adapter cable where i'd have to wire in the power which has to be near the radio because the way this camera cables are setup:
ok.. so, obviously i'm not gonna want a constant 12v feed to the camera as i'm only going to want it powered on while in reverse. where will i find the reverse power signal near the radio where i'll be hooking it up? if there's not one near the radio what's my next best option(in the trunk, maybe? if i must?). how has anyone else wired theirs?
