3. Wedge Shaped Mounting Shims
Note: The parts and supplies included with the camera are sufficient for most
installations. However some installations may require other parts and/or supplies to be
purchase separately.
WARNING: This device, as well as all other wireless devices, may be subject to
interference. Interference may be caused by cell phones, Bluetooth headsets, Wi-FI
routers, power lines and other various electrical equipment, etc. And you could not hold
the GPS unit and mount cradle in your hands because this may results in interference
too.
Camera Installation
You may mount the camera using the license plate’s top or bottom mounting bolts or
screws. When mounting the camera you must make sure that it’s field of view is not
obstructed. Depending on the vehicle, you may mount the camera on the top or bottom
of the license plate. To adjust the angle that the camera is mounted to the vehicle use the
supplied wedge shaped shims.
1. Loosen the license plate bolts/screws, then remove the rear license plate.
2. Insert each license plate bolt into a supplied
wedge, then through the bolt holes of the
camera, then through the remaining wedges
and the license plate. (Fig.1)
3. Align with holes on vehicle and temporarily tighten the license plate bolts/screws.
The wedges will angle the camera down.
4. You will need to choose a route for the camera’s power cable through the vehicle’s
body to the reverse light circuit.

5. Some vehicle’s may have a hole available to pass the wire through, you can use an
existing opening (Fig.2) like where a license plate light is mounted, or drill a hole
close to where the power cable is attached to the camera. (Fig.3) Once you have
chosen where the cable will enter the vehicle’s body, remove the camera. If you
able to use an existing opening, skip the next two steps.
6. If you are going to drill a hole, choose a location as close to the camera where the
power cable comes out of it. BEFORE YOU DRILL A HOLE YOU MUST CHECK
AND SEE WHAT IS BEHIND WHERE YOU ARE DRILLING. If there are any
vehicles components, such as electrical parts or fuel system components behind
where you are drilling, you must take whatever precaution is necessary not to
damage them. Remove the license plate and camera before drilling.
7. After you have drilled a hole, insert the supplied wedge (Fig.4), and then pass the
power cable through the wedge into the vehicle (Fig.5). You must use the wedge to
prevent the metal edge of the hole from cutting the power cable.

8. Next you’ll need to find the vehicle’s reverse lights. Turn the vehicle’s ignition key to
the accessory position, engage the parking brake and put the car in reverse. Look
at the vehicle’s tail lights to see where the reverse lights are located.
To locate the reverse light’s 12V+ wire it will be necessary to gain access to the rear
of the vehicle’s tail light.
For help locating the vehicle’s reverse light circuit contact your vehicle’s
manufacturer for vehicle specific wiring diagrams.
9. Once you have located the reverse light circuit you
will have to route the camera’s power cable to that
location. You must securely fasten the power cable
to prevent it from being caught on any vehicle
component such as the trunk hinge (Fig.6). Never
route the cable on the outside of the vehicle.
10. The sockets for most vehicle’s reverse lights have two wires connected to them.
One is positive and one is negative, to determine which is positive you will need at
least a 12V test light available at any auto parts store, or a multi-meter. Using the
test light, attach the negative lead to a spot on the vehicle that has a chassis ground,
with the reverse light on touch the other lead to one of the wires on the reverse light
socket. When you touch one of the wires and the test light comes on that wire is the
positive wire, if the test light doesn’t come on, that wire is the negative wire.
11. After determining which wire is the positive and which is the negative, turn off the
ignition key, then remove the battery’s negative cable.
12. Following the Scotch- Lok

slip joint pliers to squeeze the TAP and insure good connection.
13. Next splice the black wire of the camera’s power cable to the reverse light’s
negative (-) wire or ground.

with cable ties or electrical tape. Re-attach the negative battery cable to the battery.

Testing the System
1. Reattach the vehicle’s negative battery cable.
2. Engage the parking brake and turn the ignition key to the ON position. DO NOT
start the vehicle. Put the gear shift into reverse.
3. The camera will start broadcasting, and the GPS unit screen will detect the signal
and enter the Back-up camera mode automatically. The image will be displayed on
the screen and it should match your rear view mirror.
4. When you take the gear shift out of reverse the camera will turn OFF, and the GPS
unit screen will turn back.
After testing the unit and you are satisfied with the route you have chosen for the cabling,
you must permanently install it.
Fully tighten the license plate bolts.
Route all wires behind interior panels or under carpeting so they are hidden.
Use supplied cable ties to neatly gather all excess wire.
Note: Keep camera lens and the GPS unit screen clean to ensure optimum picture
quality.
