@mitchellhaid7779 Жыл бұрын

Still trying to figure out the backup camera, what I know is that you need to buy an adaptor and plug it to unit and also to the rear tail lights, but the adaptor is sold out everywhere and the only ones you can get are rom China, and sometimes they do not work. Ppl sometimes buy 4 adaptors until they find one that works, but what I do know is that you cannot connect it to the cigarette lighter or the yellow and red cords together, but have to send a wire through your whole car!
