Has anyone managed to retrofit a reverse camera on the 2019 models?

 

 

Did you see this thread? Maybe will help you.

 

I've recently done this on my Octy, current kits now use Bluetooth do no need to run cable through the car.

 

You may need to use a relay to isolate the feed from the reverse bulb from the canbus system. I did this, and took the power feed from the rear wiper, with the relay switched on by the reversing bulb.

Hi,

 

Did you need any coding?

 

Did you use something like below?

I used this, but it was only £40! Similar stuff available though:

Only unforeseen job was using a relay to isolate the feed from reversing bulb from canbus.
