Retrofit reverse camera
« on: 21 May 2016, 13:56 »
Hi

I have an aftermarket Kenwood dab/nav etc.
How easy is it to retrofit a reverse camera? I know when an optional extra, the VW badge lifted yo reveal the camera....

Which kenwood system do you have?

The kenwood cmos camera is about £90 and you fit in near number plate

Thanks Sunny, will have a look of exact model.
I wonder if the Kenwood camera is as good as the OEM VW one. Must admit, I do like the idea of the camera behind the badge
