It was hard to get the bolt tightened with that grounding fork on there and there was a great place to ground next to the toggle switch but the cable just wasn't long enough. Just a small suggestion, I really appreciate you providing that extra piece.

I was thinking that it could be grounded to one of the screen screens or the AV casing (that is where I did it on a Murano). I need to add a way for people ordering to let me know this is being used with a factory camera so I can include the extra ground wire for simplicity.

1. There's a black box on the kit which I'm guessing is a relay. It's not that big but finding a place for it behind the head unit can be tricky. There's a place behind the start button wire or the airbag wire it can easily fit. This really helped getting the head unit back in place properly.

Yes, that is a relay. I'm pretty sure with Jeff's install the relay was under the AV unit basically on the floor/carpet.

I've added this to the instructions, thanks.

Thanks and glad you are pleased.
