Reversing camera and rear tailgate trim


Recommended Posts

I know this topic has come up before but I did search and couldn't find the answer to my questions.

 

I have a dash cam mirror with rear camera that is attached to the back of my caravan. I am about to take delivery of a new Octavia and thought I might take the opertunity to add a 2nd rear camera on the car to use when not towing and backing up to hitch the caravan.

 

Has anyone fitted one of these numberplate cameras

I know there are better options but the adjustable angle of the camera would be good for hitching.

 

My other question is to fit this I would need to remove the tailgate trim. (Hatch version) Are there any good instructions any where for removing this trim

I was thinking I could take it up through the edge of the number plate light. Just cut a slot in it. I am not one for drilling a new car but the lense could be easily replaced if I make a mess of it or remove it later.

 

But any suggestions welcome.
