GT3 Back-Up Camera Installation - Porsche 911
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Another video in my GT3 series, this one shows you a job I did recently where I installed a back-up camera and tied it into the #Joyeauto Apple CarPlay / Android device I installed a few weeks prior for its owner. Working on my own 911 is anxiety-laden enough, working on someone else's #GT3 dream car is at a whole other level of pulse-inducing mayhem. Enjoy!
As ever, thanks so much for watching my videos and supporting my channel. Keep the comments and chat coming! More videos coming soon. Cheers!

Nice clean and methodical installation you've done on the GT3.
Thanks! 👍
You’re loving that gt3 a little bit too much. Oooh it fits on your hoist and everything. How about that James 😂 😂 😂
Haha. I know right?! I'd be lying if I said I hadn't been seriously considering an upgrade... ;-) Just need to convince the wife. Haha.
I love a white Porsche! Wish we saw more around
Maybe Doughnut needs to become a member of Project 996? Looking good for sure, and the lift is really the way to go.
Cheers Keith!!
Excelent job, made it look super easy. Must be great to have become so confident working around on the 991 gen. One day these videos are gonna be reference for professional car stereo shops. And that lift comes in so handy!
That’s really kind, thanks so much Elliott! 🤩🙌
Nice work James!
Cheers John!
I saw that the exhaust is in the middle, hope that won’t blur the camera when you cold start...!!!(gas emanation).
It looks easy to install but actually it’s not obvious at all.
Well done 👍
Cheers!
Thanks Jason! Good observation about the exhaust tips. I'll guess we'll find out...!
James, another great install video! Question, how does the Joyauto box know when the car is in reverse? if your only hooking up power and the video connection? Does the PCM put off a signal that somehow tells the Joyauto device your in reverse and to switch to the camera on screen?
Good question! For automatic transmissions there is a trip in the PCM that the JoyeAuto can use to detect the reverse gear position. For manual transmissions for some reason it has to trip from the reverse light. When the reverse light gets power; the wire tap gets it too and JoyeAuto flips the view on the PCM. I don’t fully understand it, but that’s basically how it works.
Good work buddy, was a tiny bit on edge for the bumper coming off, definitely some potential to scratch the body of your mates GT3 but you handled it 🙏
Cheers mate! Yeah, nerves! 😳😂👍
Hi, made it look easy! Which camera can you advice and where can I find it? thnx in advance

@@AutoAmateur THNX!
Nice job James, you make it look effortless. 👍
Cheers mate!!
Hey at least you didn’t stab the gt3 with a knife yet. Lol. Love the videos.
Ha! Right. I call this a win! 🤣🤣 Thanks!!
Hi, two questions if you don’t mind.
1) I have a GTS 991.2 and can’t remove the wheels, am I correct that once the camera is mounted I can run the cable around the rear wheels arch, along the inside of the sill and out to the front arch without removing any wheels, assume jacking up will help.
2) can you bend the front wheel are trim enough with the wheel in place to get the cable through to the frunk.
From there I assume there is a grommet to get the cable into the footwell.
Many thanks
Your best bet is to bring the wire in through the back of the engine bay where there is a grommet on the right hand side behind the spoiler. It brings wiring in behind the trim under the rear window. It’s much easier to do that running the wire around the wheel arch and in through the front.

@@AutoAmateur amazing, thanks very much, I'd rather run the cable internally.
One further question if you don't mind (I'm new to 911's), is there then enough room to run the cable to the PCM without removing seats etc, I'm hoping I can tuck behind panels/carpet in the rear and just pop off the door sill at the front to get to the footwell, at which point I'm hoem and dry?
Thanks
What if you have to remove the bumper? Where do you disconnect the cable ?
There is a breaker by the camera which you zip tie to the factory power cabling. This way anyone removing the rear bumper will see they have another wire to disconnect before fully removing the bumper.
@@AutoAmateur 👍🏼🙏🏼
Its a PDK...in a GT3. We gotta talk.
Hahah!! Fair.
Hey! Can you answer a few questions regarding aftermarket backup camera setup? I see on this video there’re both guidelines and red-yellow-green lines. Can those colored lines be disabled leaving only the guidelines?
Most often yes, for the cameras I install - absolutely. There are several looped wires by the camera which can be cut to break a connection which deactivate the guidelines. Each camera is slightly different, just look at the instructions provided with the camera you purchase.
@@AutoAmateur Thanks for reply 🙏 One more question. I have Carrera S 2011 (991.1) PCM3.1 with parking sensors but without backup camera. So I’m going to order Joyeauto CarPlay module and some aftermarket camera. But I want to setup it to look like the factory one - with proximity view and guidelines (whiteout red-yellow-green). Can you recommend some viable options please?🙏
Absolutely! Buy the camera I sell on my website and the JoyeAuto unit (20% off with free shipping!) www.autoamateur.com/shop - it's 100% compatible with JoyeAuto and works exactly like factory. You would never know you had an aftermarket back-up cam.
Great video - Would this be a similar job for a 2014 911 Carrera ?
Identical!
Hi James, is that a Natika camera you installed in the GT3? Thx Andy
Yes that’s right!!
Hey there, awesome videos. I just bought a GT3 and I need to add carplay and a backup camera. If I get the Joyeauto module which backup camera would you recommend that works with it that also give you the guide lines for when you turn the wheel? Any help here would be great.
Hey David! Check out my website I sell the cameras that work with the Joyeauto module. They give you the lines for when you turn the wheel and the picture quality is excellent.
Ps. Congratulations on your GT3! That’s amazing.
@@AutoAmateur I actually put in my order last night. Thanks again. Too bad I can’t pay for overnight shipping. I’m excited and ready to install it.
Nice job
Cheers James!
Happy holidays, I was installing the backup camera and ran into an issue. I have the exact same one youre using for my gt3 and the rca wire is connected to the joyeauto, the red power is connected to the red wire on the joyeauto. I double checked to make sure the connector that you said had to be pushed twice was connected. However when I go in reverse there is no video. Can you think of why this may be? Also the carplay video shows perfectly however none of my sound works. The sound just comes through the normal radio. When I push the source button there is no AUX option for me to choose. Any idea would the issue could be?
Glad we got this figured out David! For anyone else watching, we just needed to cycle to power to restart the JoyeAuto box.
Do they make front camera kits?
Yes!
Same camera just installed on the front.
You have gotten better Grasshopper..Hmmm?
Haha. :)
What kind of lift is that may i ask? Thanks
You bet!! It's a Cavalier scissor lift (120v, 3000kg / 38in max lift) from Toolots.com
Soooo, did you let the owner watch this installation video?
It's a public video! :-)
Oh heck, I'm never first!
🤣🤣🤣👍
