Thanks Buddy, your page is the best. U didn't show or say what wire u spliced into on the taillight ?

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Thanks. It was the power wire to the reverse light.

[@wesroberts8020]

Red? I'm not a electric guru lol. I got a small one off ebay I believe will fit the wiper hole?

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I'm not either! Lol. The power wire (red) from the camera gets wired to the reverse light (white). When you put your car in reverse, power gets sent to the camera, it turns on, and sends a signal to the headunit and tells the headunit to switch to the backup camera screen and turn on. Once you shift out of reverse, power gets cut to the camera and it turns off. Does that make sense?

[@naughtysmurf64]

same as I did mine. Reverse light power wire!

[@wesroberts8020]

@@ExtremeDailyDrivers thanks thats perfect as I was expecting from you. I already saw u have a cruise control. Wish you could find a local in your area that needed one and do a video. That would be a good one.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Thanks dude!

[@jaymaniak407]

I did today, used your fishing technic but didn't remove the whole rear. I just pulled the gray cover from one side at the top, fished the cable down and used the little hole for replacing the light bulb to connect the wire (couldn't find the part were you say wish color wire it connects to 😠 ) then took off the rubber seal by rear passenger door/quarter panel and fished my wire through there, saved me a ton of time. I couldn't have done it without watching your video, so Ill give you all the credit due. This crap was hard and had me annoyed, but I did it!!

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Congrats! Glad it worked out!

what unit do you have?

Great vid, and thanks for the sub.... Just an FYI, Ill be installing one of these head units in our Commander in the next week or so, video to follow!!!!

[@dannymunoz7679]

I did mine a few months ago. It looks awesome and it’s one of the best things I’ve added. Love your channel I’m a big fan.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Awesome! Thank you! I'm starting to really enjoy the camera. My trust in it is growing everyday. Thanks for watching!

[@Ahmad-pu9ci]

I didn't have to remove all of that window trim when I installed mine. All I did was fish from the top of the trim down to around where the back seat is. I love having a backup camera on my xB. More often than not, those Android head units accept a dash cam. I installed one on mine and it works really well.

[@omarayman3443]

How did you power the camera?/ give it a reverse trigger?

[@kevintoepper7640]

I got the same radio same backup camera I'm not sure what I did wrong but it's yet to work that's why I'm watching this video again 6 months later but how do you get the head unit to have that home screen personalized like you do hopefully you see this and able to help thank you

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I just changed the theme, if I remember correctly. You can go to the Play Store and search on "android theme". Then download the app and make any changes you want. I emailed that pic of the engine bay to myself and uploaded it on the car stereo and saved as the background. It's real easy. It just like a cell phone. Good luck.

[@scooterschaefer6668]

Hey bro love the content! Check out Home Depot and grab an extra long zip tie , cut the square end off and you have a perfect tool for fishing wires thru grommets and anything else in the car without risk of damage or scratching something 😎

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

That's a great idea and have actually done that in the past. If you watch my overhead console video you see we do it there. Thanks for watching.

[@hstambler8344]

Thinking about buying a used xb 2013 or 2010 Ill need to install bup camera. Thx for the info

[@89crix]

Ran my wires from the hu to the camera up along the headliner and down the A-pillar, also instead of removing the rear garnish thingy I just removed the passenger side plate light to get to the grommet. Like you I would run back and forth to the net to find clearer info on hooking what wire to what. Yours came came out good and I'm sure it'll help a lot of first timers out.

[@eddiebello3717]

I like the idea to run it along the top and drop down the Pilar. Thanks for the idea.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I considered that and originally what I was planning, but having never removed the headliner before, I didn't want to go down that road.

[@89crix]

@@ExtremeDailyDrivers No need to remove the headliner I used the coat hanger to run it along the side. Iirc I removed the grab handles and pulled the tops of the b and c pillar plastic pieces down too.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I was going to say, how long is this freakin' coat hanger!! Lol

[@89crix]

@@ExtremeDailyDrivers used it to go slightly up and around a couple spots on the headliner edge iirc sorta like sewing I guess. It's been a little while since I've done mine.

[@gioflores3427]

Have you checked out the reverse camera that goes on the wind shield wiper ?? The camera is $10 off eBay and I use the grommet fro the wiper to install

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I've seen it, in my opinion it's ugly. I wanted something that was more discreet. Thanks for watching.

[@slaternapier1640]

I tried using guitar string....it go stuck on the frame of the trunk lid....i ordered wire hangers from amazon, not entirely sure how im gonna get the guitar string out lol

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Lol. Whatever works!

[@carlosdaniel718]

friend, one question, the camera cable that comes out of the back of the radio comes with two small yellow cables, what is done with them? because when I install the red cable with the purple cable it does not give me a signal

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I believe they need to be installed at both ends. It's been years since the installation. You might want to rewatch that part of the video.

[@philjean9403]

I got the same license plate nice 👍

[@sisforslow2198]

I did the same thing on the rear grommet when I did mine. Absolutely no way you'd get an eca cable through that easily. Glad you got it done and figured out the red wire. I'm glad Mines done as well.

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

Yeah, I don't know how else you could do it. Now that I have been using it a couple of days, I love the thing. Thanks for watching!

[@sappk4908]

Did you connect a any power wires from the camera to a “reverse gear wire” anywhere? How is the head unit detect that you are going in reverse for the back up camera screen to come on? I’m a lil confused about the power camera wiring part. Or does the android radio auto detects someone that you are in reverse? (I have a 9 inch android radio I’mma trying to install a backup camera on)

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

I can't remember, but you might want to watch the video again and check out the directions on Amazon. It can be confusing. Thanks for watching.

[@bigpumpsea]

The reverse light you tap at the rear end powers the signal telling the camera to come on. I have watched a bunch of you tube videos to get this info. I am no pro.

[@eddiebello3717]

Also , when fishing the rear cam wires- is it just me , or did it seem like the end that terminates at the actual camera, can be fished through the sleeve without the surgery?

[@ExtremeDailyDrivers]

If you are talking about the red power wire, yes, but not easily and I would still cut it open to fish the yellow RCA cord.
