Retro fit reverse camera on 2021 superb

[Davi]

Hi Guys,

 

Im about to buy a superb sportline plus (2021 facelift model) and it doesnt have a rear view camera. 
 

The dealer mentioned that they could fit it for me but have now said they cannot.

 

Does anybody know if it is possible?

Im based in london if that helps. 
 

Thanks in advance!

 

Kind regards,

Davi

Yes it's possible, but it is a complete pain.

 

It's easy enough to retrofit the camera onto the back of the car (and then to re-code the car to tell it that it has a reversing camera), but then you have to wire it all the way to the head unit at the front. You can't use the existing wiring.

 

For this reason, I haven't bothered on my car. It really is a great feature though and is annoying not to have (I have it on my Focus).

Hi Chris, thank you I really appreciate the message back. 
 

Ive noticed many people have mentioned TPS but they no longer deal with the public. 
 

Given my wife really wants this and it looks like it needs to be programmed, I may wait to find a car that has it. 
 

super challenging to find a retro fitter near London.

 

Thanks again.

I’m based in north London if it’s any good to you.

 

with the 2021 it can be done but need to confirm the radio and camera type required.

feel free to PM me

Hi thanks for reaching out. Ive managed to purchase an L&K model. Thankfully this has the reverse cam already available. I will keep you in mind in case i need other retro fitting.
