Pioneer Reversing Camera Install and Review | Part 5 | T5 Camper Conversion

Hey KZbin, welcome back my channel ‪@sanjdesigns‬ . where I'm converting a VW T5 Transporter into a full on camper van
In this video I'm focusing on safety and security by showing you how to install the Pioneer reverse camera to your Pioneer SPH or AVIC Head unit.
This was relatively straightforward. Once you've fixed the camera, its just a case of wiring up to the headunit, finding the reverse wire and you're ready to go. its a great safety feature for any type of vehicle - especially one where you cannot see out the rear!

Thanks for explaining this so well - my next job on my T5 (which I have been putting off for a year) :)

[@sanjdesigns]

Thanks mate and sorry for the late reply. Hope your project goes well. I’ve done some more updates but just haven’t had time to edit and post the videos. Hopefully will do soon

Nice job Sanjay - hope you’re doing well

[@sanjdesigns]

Thank you Nick & nice to hear from you. Hope you’re doing well too 👍

Hey mate, what do you call the connectors that you use to splice into the wire? They are fabulous but I cannot find them online to purchase some for myself

[@sanjdesigns]

Thank you mate. They are called 'T tap wire connectors' and are really good when doing stuff like that. You can find them on Amazon - just type in T tap wire connectors. Hope that helps

Are you reverse sensors linked to head unit ?

[@sanjdesigns]

Hi mate, the reversing sensor were installed by the previous owner using an aftermarket kit. This is activated using the reverse light signal wire (green and black). The pioneer head unit uses an input signal from the reversing light and there is no output signal so I don’t think it will trigger the reverse sensors. Hope that helps

Fairly crap image quality on the pioneer, we have two exact cameras and my mate has a chinese android unit and his quality is far superior, I had to cut a cable and use a different standard signal otherwise no image at all

[@sanjdesigns]

Don't disagree about the image quality on the pioneer mate. It could be better, but to be honest it's fairly old tech, and I'm happy with it as it's better than no camera at all!

[@krzysiekv12]

@@sanjdesigns sure, much better than nothing and the wiring is more/less universal when new unit goes in
