1) You have to connect the positive (red) power wire of the camera to both the reverse light within the tail light and to the reverse output signal of the head unit (pink wire). Yes you are tapping the same red wire into 2 places.

2) You have to connect the ground (black) power wire of the camera to the chassis of the car ( I hooked it up on the rear where a bunch of ground wires are already connected).

3) You have to connect the RCA cable (yellow) wire of the camera to the camera input located behind the headunit.
But there are TWO red wires that need to be connected near the hatch area (I'm good @ the head unit)

One with the Yellow video RCA (bit thicker gauge red wire)
One on the power unit (thin red wire spooled with the black ground)

Sorry...that's what has me a bit confused when you mentioned tapping a singular wire???


I am guessing the thin red should be connected to the ignition/switch power
Thicker red to reverse signal lamp or the "orange wire" option as previously mentioned?

BTW THANK YOU for the quick response.
