Scion xB 2nd Gen Reverse Camera Install

Hopefully this wasn't too confusing lol. I originally filmed this before the pandemic so I was definitely more unorganized back then. Feel free to ask me any questions for more clarification as I'm more than willing to help.
I plan on getting back into making KZbin videos more regularly so thank you to all my subscribers for sticking around during these rough times.
Also, I will be making more tech videos since that is what my channel is based on. I'm planning for more iPhone and other Apple product repairs and restorations very soon. I've also been working on gaming console repairs too so I'm excited to share that all with you!
Thank you all again!!!

Awesome video bruh!! Got a xB... time to mod this gem.

[@LuminousPlasma]

Yesssss that’s awesome 👏🏽👏🏽

[@DanO-xy8wh]

@@LuminousPlasma quick question, what screen/module did you buy for the new console?

[@LuminousPlasma]

@@DanO-xy8wh oh I just seen this it’s a Sony XAV AX5000

Pretty nice set up. For me I never used the rear wipers so it was a perfect area to mount the camera and has that more clean JDM look I was particularly going for. The reason I didn’t install it there is because I didn’t want to do any solid drilling into the body. Another thing is the lip of that plastic cyst out so much of your camera view. If you’re ok with that it’s perfect 🤙🏾 it’s definitely a pain in the arseee to fish that wires in the chamber on that hatch! Oh, and I did mine go my reverse bulb. I didn’t want to tap into the main. Just me tho

[@savage_han]

You never ever drill holes in sheet metal like that. Dude! You ruined your hatch. No silicone, patch, or bondo will help you with rust now

[@LuminousPlasma]

I figured as much. The camera kit came with that little hole saw and instructed to use it like that. Looking back on it now, that was definitely one of the worst decisions I made but there's not much I can do about it as of right now. I'm sure there are preventative measures I can implement still so all hope is not at all lost, but I wish I would've taken a stab at it from a different approach.

[@ottallman]

@@LuminousPlasma so what did you figure out?

[@LuminousPlasma]

@@ottallman to not drill a hole like that ever again 💀😂

My favorite release XB..Great vehicles. Even with some that burn oil they still go 350 to 400k. Parts are cheaper theyre pretty easy to work on they look cool and get good mpg. Plus theyre so fun to drive. They are an optical illusion its unbelievable how roomy and what you can fit on the inside. Great Toyota vehicles!

[@perrabiker909]

perfect,,,,,, aaaaaahh ha ha ha ,,, you got to be kidding me aaaaaaaaahhh ha ha ha😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@ottallman]

Can pick up a panel pulling tool at almost any autoparts store or even WalMart. Can pull those clips without breaking them when they get stuck like that 1.

[@matiasgentili2178]

Where can i get that shift knob??

[@omarayman3443]

Awesome video. Your setup came out look good. I had an electrical question. So I’m going to do the 13:55 pro tip and connect a wire from down there to the head unit Power cable for the camera. That will provide power and reverse trigger? At the backend of the car w the original 12V cable for powe and ground cable, did you just ground those since you’re getting power and signal from 13:55? I would’ve liked to connect the back end wires to the reverse light but it’s too far to make that connection. Or did u connect to the light as well? Thanks

[@Mister_Y]

Today’s install is brought to you by the word, “PERFECT”👌👌👌

[@kadenlugo6678]

what up G

[@poonkinlok]

Can't help but notice with 75% fuel, your range is 162 miles. How far can you go with 1 full tank of gas? I'm getting 325 miles per tank on my 2012 xB.

[@LuminousPlasma]

Mine only says like 232 max but I think it’s been acting up lately idk

[@LuminousPlasma]

I also don’t use highways also

[@javiermelendez1398]

13:55 best pro tip ever 👌👏👍got it to work both ways

[@LuminousPlasma]

I’m glad it worked out for you!!! Congrats 👏🏽👏🏽

[@omarayman3443]

Does the front connection provide power? Did you extend you tailight cable to reach the tailight for power, it’s at a far location

[@tdog7326]

wait so, would taping into the reverse signal up front have the same effect as taping into the reverse light in the back?

[@omarayman3443]

Did you figure this out?

[@sirkflip]

what do you call those colour cable clips?

[@StreamlineSuccess]

Best video out there

[@LuminousPlasma]

LMAO THANKS

[@kashif283]

What is the red wire connected to on the back of the radio. Red wire with the yellow rca cable.

[@LuminousPlasma]

That’s for sending power along the rca cable

[@sanlee5921]

Great video. What brand and model head unit are you using?

[@LuminousPlasma]

Sony XAV AX 5000

[@andretafoya1996]
