Here we step you through how to install a reverse camera on the Toyota 86, Subaru BRZ or Scion FR-S. This shows how to integrate it to the factory screen but the installation would be the same for an aftermarket stereo for the most part minus the 4pin plug to RCA that plugs into the factory stereo.
OH YEAH! This was extremely helpful. Made my installation super easy. He shows how to get thru the all the not-so-obvious routing opportunities, which panels need to be popped out, where to hide and protect the cables. I have USA LHD model so I ran wiring under steering column to head unit but otherwise US model wires run exactly the same way. So glad I spent an afternoon installing the backup Camera; it's worth it! The camera sees way more than you can see in the mirrors.
Great to hear.
I like the full demonstration video but I like to give you some feedback and say that maybe installing the camera first to the unit would be best so you know the camera is not defective and work before you drill a hole in the back.
Exceptionally good step-by-step tutorial. Many other DIY's on YT show power to the camera via reverse light hot wire, not taking into account the ECM remembering the device.
My previous camera broke, just did a complete reinstall using this video and the kit provided, this guide was insanely helpful and made the process very very quick. Thanks for a awesome guide guys.
Great to hear!
Did u have to do the complete rewiring or did the new camera just connect to the existing cable??
Followed your instructions & installed my camera & works fine. If you didn’t point out that red wire from the head unit it definitely would have taken longer to work out.
Thanks m8… 👍
My plan isn't to integrate into a factory system as mine is an early unit without the touch screen. I'm using an aftermarket unit, but I'll be using this as a guide for routing the camera cable through the car. Excellent instructions.
This was super helpful, thank you so much! Just successfully installed mine yesterday thanks to your detailed video!! :D
Idk if I missed it but do you also show how you connect the cables to the reverse light/rear lights? I have a kit that came with a little paper explaining what wire goes where but I lost it so now I have a bunch of cables and no idea where to connect them😩
So jelly of your aussie iron - soldering iron. Badly want one!!
Camera cable you provided that goes from fhe camera in the boot lid is way shorter than the one in this vid
Would this camera work with aftermarket head units? (idoing, Sony, Kenwood, pioneer)
That was dope thanks but at the end I think it’s better to get a 12v to 5v converter with a double fuse. That would make the end part peachy perfect
Hi! Very nice video. Camera is mounted approximately 12-15 cm away from centre of tailgate. It will not coverup the farthest corner. What’s your view.
Me too installed backup camera in my Mahindra’s XUV5oo having tailgate opening switch at centre. But I mounted camera just immediate after that switch so as to allign the view.
The camera cable length (the slim connection) is too short on mine and doesn't reach the gromet that goes from the boot lid to the boot itself so it can't be fed through cause the other half of the cable is too thick. I'm gonna have to cut the car length cable and feed the chopped half though that gromet
awesome video !!! really helpful and instructions are very well explained
Two months ago build in a DX Chinese HD 170 Degree Car Rearview Parking Backup Reverse Camera for 9 € and bought a 16 wire extension with video lead (20€ ) for the radio and it worked like a charm. My Europe car radio was different than in this video. So it seems I saved near 100 € . only thing was the wire for the cam was a bit short so made a splice before installing in the booth. greetzzzz PM for details if your interested
hi i'm trying to install aftermarket cam to same head unit i got the trigger from reverse light and i connected to the adaptor plug and didnt work ! also tried to get the trigger from acc, red wire didnt work as well ! can you assist plz thanks.
I am looking at buying this kit but I have a few questions. 1, if I were to install an aftermarket head unit such as the Kenwood DDX920WDABS(from the kit you sell), do I still need to solder the wire. 2 as a person with no soldering or wiring experience, would it be easier to use a crimp or posi tap and if I did, what size tap would be required for these wires. Thanks
It seems this camera kit is out of stock, will it be coming back in stock any time soon? Or is it discontinued now?
Good detailed explanation. Well done!
Is it possible connecting the camera to a switch so you can look behind when you feel like it
Ya that's what I did
Would this work for a 2018 Toyota gt86??
Hi excellent video and a proffesional job. I have the gt86 2017 factory car from cyprus .where can i find the installation kit that match your video?
Hi, do you have front camera kit for 2014 Lexus RX270? Also, do you have distributor or rep in Perth? Cheers m8.
Siz qaysi davlatdansiz
Thank you for the video and your time keep the good going
No problem John !
Hi. My head unit is different it’s Toyota 86 trd 2016 model. Will it work? Please advise
very nice video, i have a 2013 Scion FRS from the states; wire connection to the back of stereo is similiar to this video ?
How does the camera know when to turn on without the signal cable ? Will this work with other toyota using the same headunit ?
Hi, after I stick the camera behind the car, I found that the image in the screen is a bit crooked, how should I adjust it?
I have a SONY XAV-AX100 HU on my '13 FRS. Would this be compatible? Also, I thought the FRS needed a reverse trigger wire? The back of the HU has an RCA plug. Thanks in advance!
So u didn't connect the red wire to the reverse light 12V+?? Straight from back to front?
The reverse trigger is behind stereo on 86 it’s just as easy to get there
@@AutoChimp i am using exactly same radio on my Prius 08, I was told the trigger wire to be connected to pin 2 on 28pins connector. But still car can't see it when I reverse...
Hi, will this work on 2018 model? I noticed your head unit is different from mine
Same here, the 2018 does not have that connector that the rca plugs in to.
Son of the Southern Cross I bought a 24-pin connector from aliexpress for usd5. Works like a charm
@@BlueBracelet202 Thanks Hadri, my 86 camera also sits in a recess so I am also looking at replacing the panel that it sits in, the view from it is really poor.
Son of the Southern Cross how so? I followed most of the instructions from the video. It’s just the head unit part that differs. I used nautica camera from amazon, looks totally oem. One thing that I hate is the media / radio will be muted when I shift my gear to R. Do you know a way to get around it?
I have a question I was hoping you'd be able to answer for me. The red/silver wire you soldered onto for power... you claimed it was Accessory Power, correct? My question for you is does that Acc Pwr get switched back off when you start the car? So what I'm getting to is: does the camera then turn off once the ignition is no longer set in Acc mode? Sorry, in advance, for my ignorance as to how ignitions work in a push-to-start vehicle.
Yes the camera turns off when the cars turned off. This is actually standard for all Toyotas they designed their camera to always be on when the cars on. This is also why we suggest a good quality camera as it is technically always active. Cheap ones burn out. Its only the screen that flicks over when put in reverse.
Hey Carbon,
Is it possible to view this camera even when not in reverse?
Or also hook it up to a dashcam so it's always recording. I have a couple spare dashcams I could tinker with.
@@XArtisan In theory, will depend on if your head unit/DVR has that input though. I think you can on the Joying head unit I have for instance.
Thx for the video, can you tell me how to close the guideline for the reverse screen?
Cut the green loop on our cameras will remove the guidelines.
Will this work On 2014 SCION FRS, USA MODEL?????
Will this work with the 2017 brz? The HU looks different
How about how to use the factory camera with the factory receiver? Currently the camera displays on the mirror and I'd prefer to have it on the receiver
Thats not a genuine camera in the factory mirror thats a dealer fitted aftermarket option Toyota never released a genuine camera in the mirror for the Toyota 86, you could move the signal to stereo if you have a stereo with screen yes.
@@AutoChimp what do you mean? 2019 86 came factory with rear view monitor and the deck also has a display. I want to see about getting it to play on the display instead of the rear view
@@CENTAUR559 I'm not sure which of you is correct, but what he is saying is that it did not come that way from the factory, but that the dealer installed it before selling the car, so you might have thought it was that way from the factory. Hard to know... mine came from the dealer with a head unit I haven't seen in any other 86, but that is used in the Rav4 in South America.
Any idea if this will work with the US 2014 radio?
do you have to buy that black video connector or is it already on the car?
Our kit comes with the 4pin plug to RCA connection for the video in, or can buy the plug on its own for $44
I have the camera, but the cord from the camera is too short to pass through the rubber boot that goes from the trunk lid to the car. Does anyone know of a source of an extension that I can use? It just needs to be a couple of feet long...
Our camera kits have plenty of length in fact almost 1 Metre to spare. There are no extensions required.
Did you get the camera elsewhere? You would have to buy an extension from the company that sold you the camera as all wiring for cameras is different based on brand.
Great video! Don't need a reverse trigger wire?
The reverse trigger is already hooked up standard on the 86 its just not activated till the unit detects the camera installed it has signal sensing.
Interesting. Not on the USDM Scions. We have to add a reverse trigger and splice into the loom near the fuse box. The BRZs have it preinstalled.
Check behind the stereo there is a 5 pin plug that has the reverse trigger in it. In Australia this is a orange/white wire. If its not connected on the Scion then its just loomed up behind the stereo.
Thanks!
I have a 2014 Monogram FRS and i can't seem to get the reverse to detect that the camera's installed. Is there a 5 pin plug hidden in the back of my US Scion? The instructions from my kit says I have to plug into #2 pin on 28Pin + power the reverse camera via footwell or another power source. Is this necessary or am I missing something here? Thanks
Need this in white!
Universal black blends in well mate!
What's different for the BRZ? I saw that on checkout the wires are different?
The mounting of camera is the same the plug st back is different.
That being said there is 3 x different styles that came out for BRZ so if it’s the same style as in this video our kit will work.
in the night how is it? can we show?
i would like to by the kit but i'm in France?
sorry currently do not ship overseas
Any of these kits available for a US 2013 frs with bespoke radio?
We working with our US partners to create one stay tuned.
What is the price
Any plans to do US shipping?
We are releasing the kits in the USA later this year but its a month or two away.
this fit 15 frs?
Just installed this but as usual it was nowhere near as simple as it looks when pros do it. Install in the boot to the footwell was relatively straight fwd. I struck issues when trying to get the head unit out far enough to access the ACC wire described as red in the video but which is actually red/silver spots. I’m thinking CarbonCarSystems have had their unit in and out many times and have released the stereo loom to the point where their head unit comes out as far as it does in the video.
If your car is a virgin with regard to the head unit being removed it comes out a fraction of the distance shown in the video, and there is no way known one could cut then solder the cameras red wire to the acc wire with this little space. Keep in mind that these are not wires you want to put to much force or strain on. Using a far better quality wire tap I had left over from another project, that incorporated a female spade connector in the housing, I was able to complete the install.
The camera itself works fine but just be prepared for a little more effort and bitching when you attempt this.
Oh an use masking tape or similar on the silver pieces that are on both sides of the climate control to protect them. I managed to scratch mine slightly while trying to get the head unit far around to the left to get to the ACC wire. Fixed with a silver touch up paint pen so all good.
It's because their loom has been cut it will fall out further because the wires aren't bound. It clearly shows in the video the wire is red with silver spots..not sure how you missed that, unless you're blind. Don't know why you had to use another wire. A twist job with tape would've done it good enough
do you ship to sweden, and i have a diffrent stereo it has nav and no markings.
Sorry we only sell in Australia, the screens overseas can vary.
ok, thx for quick answer, could you help me id my stereo if i send a pic
on it to a emailadress and if your camera kit would work for it on the
same way as the the one in the video.
i have a friend that have lived in Australia, and i bet he has friends that can order and send it to me.
I will not be able to help with overseas models as we cannot test or work on them and we do not want to give incorrect advice.
ok so its only this exact modell in the video you know works.
thx for you patience and help, have a nice day :)
You did not shaw how you powered the camera from the back of the car ! I think it is from the reverse light
As far as I remember, Toyota’s/Subaru’s with this headunit receive the reverse signal via the 4 pin plug that goes in the head unit, as it’s always powered via accessory power and the screen switches when reverse is engaged
brrilllllllllllllllliant!!!!!!!!!!!!

YOU GUYS NOT CLEARLY ON THE MARKET TO MAKE MONEY, I HAVE EMAILED Y'ALL AROUND ALMOST 2 MONTHS AGO AND STILL WAITING
So i installed everything, camera was working for a while until moisture got in. Then, it eventually stopped working. I thought it was the camera, so I bought new one and connected it, and it doesn't work. All wires are still connected, camera is getting power, RCA is hooked up. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Does this work for the 2013 frs and can it work with a different head unit ???
