Hello,
I have ordered a genuine VW reverse camera to install with my RCD510. Apparently the RVC option isn't available for vans with barn doors probably due to the lack of mounting options. My caddy has a mechanical door release rather than an electronically controlled one, so a handle replacement isn't suitable.
Anyway, I'll be modifying the camera to work in my situation and I have a reasonable plan for what I'm going to do.
My main concern is installing the cabling and ensuring I do it in a way that doesn't damage the trim. Some parts are tricky/impossible to remove in modern vehicles! I thought I'd see if anyone has installed cabling from the back of a barn door Caddy to the front head unit area? There is the option to go down the passenger side or through the roof bulkhead.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
