0906 rear camera fitting

[polygonuk]

Some photos fitting the rear camera on my girlfriend's Corsa today. I'd already fitted the front camera a few weeks ago. Goodbye sweet 60fps from front camera heh. I carefully avoided covering the front and rear side airbags by deciding had to route along the bottom instead of the top. It took me lots of patience and GT85 to get the cable through the rear boot hose, and I managed to squish the connector a bit. Luckily I don't think I damaged the pins and it still works ok. Comments and criticism (constructive) welcome.

I like your install, I did something similar on a 2002 Toyota Sienna, I also used the flexible wire run to run my rear cable so that I would not have a floppy loop of wire needed to allow the hatch to open otherwise, check out my thread:

On your install I think that I can see screws that hold on an access cover to the Center Brake Light, you might be able to hide more of the wire if you like. I see that your install is great but I have issues with wires all over the place and am taking very antipsychotic medicine for that, "I'm Better Now"

Thanks for the feedback, yours looks good too. That's a great suggestion - I did give it a try and fished the connector through to the indicator housing, but then couldn't work out how to get the connector through the space between the metal and glass (there's no plastic trim at the top), so I abandoned it. I'm glad you're "better" now haha
