here is the rest of the license plate backup camera install PART 2
from routing the cable from the front foot well... continuing on from part 1 where we left off after i dropped the signal cable behind the stereo unit and dropped it at the passenger foot well whee the center trim meets the carpet....

in this video i show you how to route the cable from the front passenger foot well all the way to the rear boot area next to the fuse panel in the trunk
how to remove all necessary parts to run the cable safely and securely all the way to the rear SAM fuse panel
i also show you how to modify the camera housing in order to fit the camera into the license plate light slot... depending on the type of camera you have and how it is made , you may not need to do so...i show you my way of tackling the issue where the cable was in the way of fitment

due to the length of the video i decided to break it all up into 3 parts
so in the next video i will show how to wire your backup camera to your reverse light so that
you can prolong the life of your camera
have it only running once you engage reverse gear
rather then using a 12v switched power source, which would have your camera running as soon as you switch your ignition on....
which would in turn degrade the life of your camera
hence why its important to wire it to your reverse light
i will show how to use 3 methods of wiring to eliminate the chance of introducing inconsistent video, noise/fuzzy lines and or error messages on you instrument cluster due to wiring it to your reverse light...
due to the nature of European cars especially Mercedes with their SAM units Signal Acquisition Module...all signals sensors and electronics go through the SAM and if it detects anything that is inconsistent from amp to voltage drops to sensor changes and etc....it will send an error message and display a fault.... basically any electrical fault can be detected by the SAM module...
hence why you should never splice or cut factory wires.... unless done right it will introduce issues with inconsistent electrical readings.... which is why when tapping into your reverse light you will need to use either one of these methods to wire it correctly...eliminating errors....
these methods are
using a rectifier
using a capacitor
or a relay
any of these methods will suffice and work
being the safest and best way to wire it

all this will be shown in part 3
so be sure to tune in for the final part of this reverse/backup camera INSTALL
