I'm sure this is on here somewhere, but for the life of me I cannot find it. I recently installed a pioneer deck into the ol girl. On the back of the factory deck there are three total harnesses. The left harness is all of the stereo wiring. I'm wondering if anyone knows which wires in the other two harness provide the camera signals, as I would like to splice an rca connection on, but do not want to screw anything up too much. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I got the pac audio rp4-ch11. This one retains all factory stereo components and works with the amplified system. I seen there was an adapter to do the camera as well, but i was unable to find any around where I'm at without ordering online. Through researching I seen it is possible to splice into an rca and would love to save the money as this has already cost enough... I may have also done enough research to think I knew what I was doing and started the process lol

Thank you I will have to take a look at it. I don't have the camera in the mirrors so I'll have to see if their suggestions work. The harness that seemed to work the back up camera was the harness in my hand. The one in the center I have no real clue what it does, but it does have the green orange cable, so possibly a grounding harness. Even with the Green orange and the green brown hooked to the RCA I would assume there would be a camera power wire that I would need to also splice into the harness to provide the power.

Not sure if this will help, but this page has listings of all the factory connections.

Thanks! only thing that sucks compared to the old site that listed them is on the old site it was also say the connector part number so you could go to the actual manufacturer of the connector and get an un-pinned connector.
