I recommend something like this

 

Well what's the requirement exactly for it to work with this unit?(vs like stock)

 

I'm not sure mine didn't come stock with a camera. But this does have a similar look to stock. Here's what you get for tge extra 10$

 

Did you end up just grabbing the one from amazon? GOt any pics? Also any other cables that are good to have?(Usb, new aux?) My old aux plug is broken so prob gonna have to replace it anyway.

 

the tesla unit comes with two usb cables and has Bluetooth so no real need for an aux. Here's how the camera looks installed

 

Did you have to run the cable all the way since it's just reg rca? Or just splice into the existing connector?

 

I give pretty detailed steps somewhere here, its step by step, just need to read through the thread.

 

do you have a video operating the AC controls

 

Yeah was a little confused since there's a few wrong ways to do it but I was mostly curious about the rerunning of wire completely or just reusing existing wires with a new camera. Did you try downloading offline maps for google and using that? I personally think i'm going to run a usb/aux where my current aux is then run another usb where my ashtray is so I'll have a few options for usb music/files and charging.

 

I found a video on YouTube that explained really well how to wire it. And yes I had to run the rca all the way to the front. I don't think you can just tap into the existing wires.

 

Alright cool appreciate it.

 

Did you have to cut the metal to get the camera screwed in? I'm prob just gonna install mine in the same spot as my existing which is the middle.

 

just had to drill a hole, and it's fibre glass so it's easy to drill

 

any videos

 

oh man! I'm so glad I found this thread!! I would really love to get this unit to replace my old one, I think I saw a oem camera in the rear but mine unit doesn't have GPS or reverse camera option so this would be awesome.
