[@javisuave1354]

Cómo has sacado el motor,para acceder al pulsador?

[@amirdjellab13]

My tiguan dont have that and no sensors so hard to drive i wanna do it but scared break it lol. Good video bro im gonna buy and risk it

[@laymandiy]

This is minimal. Adding sensors is harder

[@DanielRodriguez-cw6cl]

Does it work on Audi a1 2019?

[@nunofreire2054]

I tested my camera and ir work with no coding on a seat Leon 5f st 11/2015, but when i unmont and put everinsing stock the parkpilot stop working.. the sensor make sound but the image of the sensores note apear.. hope ir work again with the camera

[@laymandiy]

Do you have back up?

[@franciscotavorasanchez7609]

me puedes decir la pagina de aliexpres donde la compraste?,por favor, quiero comprarla perno necesito saber cual es el modelo exacto

[@laymandiy]

You need to order the right one. Measure the dimensions of your exact handle and check the curves of the handle I used was MQB CAM A which fits Skoda Superb

[@Finessetheartofdriving-nr9nb]

Do you have to run rca leads etc or does it just use existing looms? I have a 2017 octavia and want to install one

[@laymandiy]

2 part video. You'll have to run it, unless in the unlikely event they accidently installed the harness

[@Selim70007]

Hey nice work. I want this for 2020 Superb estate. Is it also plug and play, or doe I need obd with vcds software. Tnx

[@laymandiy]

Plug and play

[@Selim70007]

​@@laymandiyI also received and installed it. Now my screen goes black. You get 3 options to adjust the light color, but the screen remains black. It says parking camera not available now. Any idea what this could be due to?

[@laymandiy]

Sounds like your video connection is either faulty or not in properly

[@ximdyy9495]

Hi man. I’m wanting to install this to my Seat Leon 2017 do you know which one of the options from the link I would need?

[@laymandiy]

You need to measure your tailgate button and compare against the link.

[@Aym4n98-cc9gm]

Did you end up doing it? I'm looking to add one into my 65 reg FR?

[@BrucePain-_-]

Is it not possible to install this to Fabia 3 2015 pre-facelift?

[@laymandiy]

Not this particular one there maybe other aftermarket solutions

[@glennmuggleton4084]

Great video sir! Where did you get your kit?

@@laymandiy did you select camera A,B or C. I also plan on installing in a mark 3 superb (estate version)

You need to check the measurements of your existing boot handle. I selected mqb camera A for the saloon / hatchback install I did..

Normally infotainment stays on even after car turns off but the screen should turn off as well after opening the door

No coding required, this was plug and play.
