Added OEM back up cam to aftermarket radio

[NathanJax]

So my truck didn't come with the Nav so it didn't have back up camera. I purchased a factory back up camera off eBay for $40. Purchased a 12v to 5v converter from a member here (was an extra that he got it off eBay)


Factory camera


I cut off the factory plug. There were 4 wires. Red, Black, Yellow, and White.

Red = 5 volt
Black = Ground
Yellow = Positive (inside RCA) video output
White = Negative (outside RCA) video output

Wired up the 12v to 5v converter as the sticker shows, and soldered a male RCA end to the yellow and white.



I kinda went with these instructions as to dremel the rear applique

Adding a back-up camera


Outside like OEM...





and inside when I go in to reverse, or I can hit the camera button on the screen and the camera will stay on indefinitely.

If your applique doesn't have a camera now, it has to be cut. I have 3 appliques at the house now that I've been messing around with...

They make two different appliqués. One with the camera cutout and one without.

You can cut the non-camera one and it will attach just like the camera one. The indention is already there. Just not the holes. I took a piece of construction paper and made a template to cut my OEM one.

Serious internet business question, How close are you to having the parts laying around to build another Yukon?

Just a bunch of parts. I've sold off a lot though. Need to sell off a bunch more. Just lazy and haven't gotten around to posting stuff on Craigslist or eBay.
