JDM Reverse Camera Adaptors For New Head Unit ?

[castigan]

i cut the entire cable, and its very easy to find the video one and splice a rca plug into it.. mine now plugs into anything.. all you have to do is hook i think its a brown wire up to the reverse, maybe a pink.. that opens the door over the camera..

I DID IT

What a nightmare fitting a new head unit was. I had to get the wiring diagram from the US vehicross and turns out its different to the JDM

Also the addaptor i got to go from Isuzu to the new headunit had a female connector and guess what.......so did the isuzu!!!! so had to make a new connector off the old and new ones!!!! took ages but my advise is follow the wire colours on the wiring diagram and NOT their position number on the connector block as they are wrong!

For the camera feed, there is a yellow RCA video out on the metal box located where the jack is, simply run that to the headunit camera in. For the headunit to show the camera when putting it in reverse you simply connect it to a reverse light feed (which i found under the passenger seat )

So everything still works without the OEM head unit, i was worried the power for the reverse camera and its motorised flap came from th head unit but it doesn't. It all still works fine with the new head unit.

Awesome news!
wish i kinda explored into this all drama before i went and got another headunit. with mine i just ended up chucking in a single din down below where the cubby hole normaly is.

Oh well its fine how it is. Might change it later.

I always wondered about that little box in the back for the camera but havent had time to piss with it. Glad you did

I brought a small little camera to put up in the rear window. Tho shame the stock addzest unit is the wrong hertz so all i see is black and white fuzzy lines and a repeating image.

What headunit do you go with in the end

just one i have moved from car to car for the last 3 cars

its a Halfords branded ripspead' unit. inexpensive (?450) and packed with features in my opinion!!!

I now need to make a cover for the head unit as its now a sigle DIN in a double hole!!
