No mate I taped into the rear wiper. It is currently permanently live with ignition. I will be looking at taping into the reverse for the switch signal but that’s a job for tomorrow

@Barrington. What is it exactly that you’re struggling with mate? I’ve done a rear cam install and I may be able to help.

@ Pat, nice work mate. They look good
