So on the custom circuit board for the reverse cam I am assuming you didn't have the Resler IBus interface at that time so you needed a different path to trigger the reverse event. I like the added feature of the PDC button command but I am not sure it is needed for me with the newer evolution of android HU I can simply bring up the rear view through the app within the HU. Still a nice feature you with TerminatorX and Smokey53 figured out. Kudos. I design, build and install data and video acquisition harnesses for the motorsport environment and it was nice to see someone with the same OCD for fit and finish as I have. It makes all the difference in the world when you stand back and look at your efforts and results. When I look at this picture, all I can say is one word. Professional. Thanks for sharing.

On the DVR accessory the front camera is the master with the card slot and recording processing and the rear is the slave. Both video images are fed to the android but it really doesn't do anything other than display the video images on command. (Reverse or manual app command) The recording process is cyclic so when the card fills up, it starts writing over the oldest recordings. I never need to pull the card unless it is needed. The latest videos are always accessible through the app or directly from the card. I posted this video of the DVR accessory that AVIN is currently using. The lane departure alerts and closing speed of the vehicle ahead alerts are something I really would like to have. More like the sophisticated electronics of the cars now. Watch the video from the 8:00 mark through the 15:30 mark. The director has a hard time staying focused or on topic but worth the view anyway. You will get the idea. In his video he states he has it wired to the reverse lights but I am not sure this guy even did his own install... https://youtu.be/x90ED5zboro

I'll do a test fit of the new unit and take some pictures in the parts car since the OE nav is already out. Will post a new thread about my build and will include them later today.

My install is very similar to the M3 video except I went down the driver side. I had installed a Dice Mediabridge many years ago so I knew that route would work and be factory like.
I have a Seicane unit that I don't recommend because of total lack of customer service. But from going through the problems of that install I would never even suggest trying to customize the unit features unless one is a pro. My view is to buy something that already has the features you want and one you won't be breaking new ground. I think Android based is the only route to go. At least there is half a chance of keeping up with emerging factory features that might come available as an android app to stay state of the art.

I guess it depends mostly on the routing. The wiring boot from the tailgate is in the right corner so it ultimately ends up on the right side and the fuse box is right there so it just made sense. From there it is just a straight run towards the front glove box area so rather than crossing over to the left running down the left side and then crossing back to the right behind the dash, I am choosing to run it down the right side for a shorter run.

Nice! Is that a proprietary type plug I see there for the camera feed wires? If that harness is long enough to make it from the hatch to the body of the truck through the trunk/snorkel it could make running wires simpler/quicker.

I already have a camera installed with the same wiring as this one. I like this one better and so will be an easy swap for me. Could you please provide the amazon link for it?
Thanks!
