Reverse camera

[dubhead]

Hi all,

I was planning on changing the stock highline stereo for the aftermarket pioneer, but as it bluetooth streams, I am quite happy to keep it as use my phone for nav generally.

For this reason I didn't get the reverse camera fitted. I have the stock highline stereo.

Does the own reverse camera work with the stock standard small screen stereo?

It was an option on order..so thinking it will work. If so will order from the forum shop?

Thanks in advance

It depends on the stereo part number I believe, there is a thread ref this somewhere.. But go into stereo system menu, and find the part number and post up.. Pauly will know..

Its the final digit on the stereo part number that seems to be important, the kit works on the 'C' version but not on 1K8035150 B/D/E/L
You can find the part number in the stereo menu under system info or version info something like that

@Pauly I have the Discover Navigation with a part number ending with a C and was just searching to see whether it'd accept a camera.
Will the camera have to be an OEM VW camera, or will it take any camera that has the same connection?

Cheers.

All other headunits work fine with the camera it only the small screen units with the part number(s) listed above that dont and yes it needs to be the VW unit, it may be possible to get an interface box to take the yellow RCA plug from an aftermarket camera and convert it to the input wires on an OE unit but i have no experience of this

I've just had a camera fitted today to tie in with my Discover Nav unit by Neil at ASC in Minworth 07969 585292 . Cracking job and he kindly pulled my rear F770 camera cable through at the same time so I've just wired that up too..

Now I see this

So looks like I have the part number above ending with L, gutted tbh.

Is there any other options anyone knows of prior to me changing the head unit to an aftermarket version?

Thanks in advance

How much does this cost @JimVee
