Reverse camera retrofit ?

[182_blue]

Anyone done this on the MK7, i did it on my MK5 but just wondered if there is a guide for the MK7 ?

Can be done but the kit from Kufatec is pretty expensive (500£).

Then needs coding with VCDS.

I know it can be done and can get the full kit for just over £200, just wondered if there i a guide knocking about.

to enable cam just code:
10 Einparkhilfe Byte 02, set Bit 4 to 1
5F Informationselektr. Byte 19, set Bit 4 to 1

Thanks but was thinking more the wiring/ routing

Wiring is usually down the right hand side of the car when looking at the car from behind (drivers side in other words)

Even on the MK7 ?, just thinking that it now connects up to the unit in the glovebox now and not the headunit..

You may need to look then but to be honest what's the difference between behind the head unit or in the glovebox, about three inches??

In cabling routing terms its a lot more than 3 inches but i get your point.

Afaik VW route down the driver's side if fitted in factory but dealers have been known to run down the passenger side when retrofitting (on the continent at least).
