best video on this by far needs more credit for sure

[@IAM_HC]

Thanks, I’m trying to get caught up on some projects for more content.

[@elevate32767]

This guy knows what he’s doing. The other videos I’ve seen are mickey mouse shit

[@IAM_HC]

Thanks homie, i finally got a job doing 12v professionally too. I’ll take all the validation I can’t get lol.

[@may0r19uana3]

We need more tutorials on TH-cam with this attention to detail and dope Hip-Hop vibe. Much respect from Montana.

[@IAM_HC]

Thanks brother that’s exactly what I was goin for, thanks for the feedback! I wasn’t sure if it was too much detail

[@CHEVYK10]

Great video
Keep up the good work

[@IAM_HC]

Thanks my friend, getting ready to drop a short update on this build

[@alexandermeimer5168]

Tapping into the black/red reverse trigger wire is a real winner, especially since on this model the reverse lights are in the trunk lid.

[@fulldecent]

There are MULTIPLE red/black wires back here. I tried the one in the top bank and the middle bank-left. Both are always hot.

[@IAM_HC]

Exactly, I prefer not to make unnecessarily long runs of wire whenever I don’t have to. Thanks for gassing me up here lol 🙏🏽

[@IAM_HC]

@@fulldecent gotta keep testing wires while cycling the shifter to see which one has matching voltage. Sometimes different years or different factories have anomalies. These cars were made in both the US and Japan so you never know.

[@tessmanator]

Hey can you tell me what color that wire you sliced into on the passenger side for reverse camera trigger

[@IAM_HC]

It is a red wire with a black stripe. It’s unwrapped in the harness running along the lower trim just below the glove box.

[@fulldecent]

I would trust this guy on my Camry. *checks for his zip code

[@IAM_HC]

Im in NJ, servicing the tri state area.

[@toontown633]

good instillation but the sticking out screen is an eye sore

[@IAM_HC]

Yeah I had it laying around from another build. My taste has changed but was layed off at the time and desperately needed an upgrade. Next it’ll get a hand me down from my work van, a double din with Apple CarPlay. Stay tuned

[@toontown633]

@@IAM_HC good man

[@kenciardullo7925]

So is there no need to tap into the reverse light at the back of the car because you tapped in via radio in the front panel?

[@IAM_HC]

Correct, run the reverse wire from the receiver, usually purple, to the in this case red wire with black stripe in the harness under the glove box behind that lower trim. This wire feeds signal to the reverse lights. Generally this is this shortest run option and doesn’t put an uneven resistance load in the system which may cause issues on sensitive vehicles.

[@kenciardullo7925]

@@IAM_HC thank you! This video was invaluable to me for installing a new radio and backup camera. I really appreciate it.

[@IAM_HC]

@@kenciardullo7925 thanks for the feedback, hoping to start filming again soon. Just did a bunch of work to this car too

[@717Chris]

What part # is the pocket underneath the radio?

[@717Chris]

Where did you get the pocket for underneath the radio?

[@IAM_HC]

It comes with the dash kit, sorry for the delayed response

[@lindseytunk6621]

What if it has an airbag?

[@IAM_HC]

Could you elaborate more? I just want to better understand to help otherwise, none of the features installed here can affect the airbags in the vehicle.
