Reverse trigger
Where are people finding a reverse trigger for reverse camera/monitor?

About to go double din, and camera so need a connection onto the reverse connection ideally as near to the head unit as possible.

Although part of me is thinking of just put a switch in.

Thanks
Andy.

That’s what I thought Big Cry

Was hoping there to be something inside, or even bulkhead.

You can also tap into the reverse light at the back. I used the continuous power back there and the reverse light as the trigger.

As above you can take it from the rear. (If you want to & prevents damaging factory wiring).

If you’d like to have a plug and play option, you may wish to contact PaulMC on here to help with that.
He is a great guy to deal with, and very knowledgable. Thumbs Up

You can run the cable behind the headlining and down A pillar with 1mm2 thinwall. Thumbs Up ⭐️⭐️God Bless the USA 🇬🇧🇺🇸 ⭐️⭐️

You can if you want, I have mine on all the time that the HU is on, and will auto pop up on screen if the reverse is selected.

That way you can select the camera any time as it’s on anyway, but will still come on screen when reverse is selected. ⭐️⭐️God Bless the USA 🇬🇧🇺🇸 ⭐️⭐️

Or just plug this into the reverse light to supply the camera and extend it forward to the headunit.
