2007 Dodge Ram 1500 Double Din Headset

I am in the process of installing a new Pioneer Double Din headset in my 2007 Ram 1500, extended cab, short bed. In conjunction with this install, I am installing a backup camera and Sirius/XM receiver. What is the best way to route the wiring from the back of the truck to behind the dash for the camera? What is the best way to route the wiring for the antenna for the Sirius/XM receiver? Also, are there any good graphics that show the correct wiring of the original wires behind the dash to the new headset?:grd:

I think the general consensus for the backup camera wiring is along the frame rail into the engine bay. Then through the grommet in the firewall. That's how I routed mine. For satellite radio I have no idea.

I did mine like this, also. Fresh after pulling the dash for the doors/cores, I made it a point not to run anything that was going to be in the way of future servicing. Not that I plan on getting rid of this truck, but I also wanted to route stuff logically so someone else wouldn't need to guess how stuff was run.

Also, are there any good graphics that show the correct wiring of the original wires behind the dash to the new headset?

Please please please get the right wiring harness for your truck and don't cut into your factory harness. Didn't know if that's why you wanted the wiring diagram above or not. Also since yours is an 07 the wiring harness for your truck will provide reverse signal for your backup camera, e brake signal and vehicle speed sense for your gps.

Also not sure if the diagram above is correct since 07 radios are switched on and off through the can bus and will have no switched accessory wire.
