Did you manage to do this? Looking to do the same.

Had some wires damaged and want to do some clean up. Anyone know what type of crimps I need for the wires that connect to the connectors for the Columbus? Thanks!

I bought one. But now I don't know where to find the correct "firmware" file to upload. Any ideas? Thanks!

Bump?

Hi, I bought a higline RVC (5TA827566B) to retrofit to my S3. After much struggling I found out on ross-tech forums that the camera was not initialised and needs to be and this cannot be done from VCDS. Does anyone know how I might do this? Been over 6 months now and now the summer is here the kids play in the driveway and that freaks me out! Thanks!

I need to code a highline RVC for an S3. VCDS cannot do this (no factory init IIRC). Anyone in west of Ireland who has a VCP cable I could borrow? Thanks!

Ah. I think that is the lowline version. Not sure it needs as much coding.

How did you do it?

Darn. €240 on top of the 300 I paid for the Ross Tech one.

Anyone know where I can get a vcp vag connector? Googled a bit and don't see later skodas down as supported.

They sold it claiming VCDS was all that was needed. Anyways the issue here is the lack of response. It took me 2 weeks to get a response form my first 10 emails. Then I got give instructions for how to install it with VCDS from them. When I replied over a week ago they sent in last couple days saying (and I am quoting!) - "Hi You need go to VW dealer for on-line. On-line system will load sw to camera. Or you need vcp vag Can programmer" So why send me the instructions in the first place etc? Anyways - I am going to try and source someone to do it for me. I just wish it was not the best part of 3 months trying to get it going.

For some reason I was not get notified of updates here. Looks like I will have to get a vcp setup but I wonder how pistonbroke managed it? Anyone with VCP in Galway area? If not I guess there might be soon :-(

Hi all, I bought a highline rear view camera (http://www.cars-equipment.com/www/en/shop/rear-view-cameras-12/oem-rvc-mqb-rear-view-camera/) from this site. I installed it but it is not coded. I have mailed these guys multiple times and have not got a response. Just flat out ignoring me! Does anyone know if I have any legal recourse etc? Thanks.

I get a black screen when I go into reverse now (plus the OPS on the side). I guess that means the video feed but I have that cabled into the blue connector using pins 6 + 12. Also I used the CAN on the grey connector for high and low and the power from the main power to the head unit. The handle works in the boot so power seems fine.

Thank you! I found them by trawling through google for about 2 hours on Russian sites.

Ok - I sort of figured it out - All I need now is is CAN+ and CAN-. Not sure how to find them.

Hi all, I'm trying to figure out the cabling for a highline 5TA827566E. It has the standard 2 pin Video connection that goes into the blue plug in back of the glove box. It has 4 other cables that i assume are power related. There is a orange, black, red and brown cable. I have all cables routed to the front at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Milanj - Did you ever figure this out? I am trying to connect a 5TA827566E at the moment.

Not sure that pic attached right. http://picpaste.com/2016-12-28_16.19.00_HDR-fQQryZvI.jpg

So I eventually got around to this. I have fitted the camera and now have the cable ends at back of glove box. Not sure what connections I need now as I have lost any original docs I may have had and the company has not answered me in over 2-3 weeks. The camera was : http://www.cars-equipment.com/www/en/shop/rear-view-cameras/oem-rvc-mqb-rear-view-camera/ So can anyone help me with the connections? I'm assuming the 2 crimped connection (2nd and 3rd from right in the pic) go to pins 6 and 12 on the blue block at back of DVD unit. Not sure on rest. I assume I need a +12v and a GND, maybe a control cable. Appreciate any help. Thanks.

Thanks - I just need to figure out what I need to fit http://www.cars-equipment.com/www/en/shop/rear-view-cameras-3/oem-5q0980556-rvc-inner-highline-camera/ or http://www.cars-equipment.com/www/en/shop/rear-view-cameras-3/oem-3v0827566c-highline-rvc-with-washer/ Wondering will I need some sort of mount etc.

Is the 5Q0 980 556 not an audi part? Does it fit ok to the boot? Is this all I need? http://www.cars-equipment.com/www/en/shop/rear-view-cameras-3/oem-5q0980556-rvc-inner-highline-camera/ Thanks!!

Oh - and what is the difference between lowline and highline ?
