What is the micro-usb port on the stereo for? Like what does the existing plug going into that port run from. I'm trying to install a backup camera and looking for video input solution. Thanks!
I'm thinking that might be the video in. I'll have to check my books later.Blue is unknown to me; possibly MyLink touch screen input
I should add, this mention in the manual makes it less likely that a factory camera can be added to a car that came without it. Because now you're replacing the harness for the trunk lid. But if the wires are there all the way to the trunk, it still should make it easier to add a camera then trying to run the wire all the way to the head unit.However, the bad news is it looks like the harness for the trunk is different. In cars without the backup camera, the "license harness to rear compartment lid harness" is only 4 pin. With backup camera, it's 10 pin.
Does it have the wires in the connector at the radio end? You could try splicing it. But it's probably coax, which wouldn't be easy.I already have wiring all the way up to my dash with an AV video make end all the way in front but had no means of connecting it.
I don't know. I'm not sure how far you can push things without visible problems.If I was to cut that connector off and just feed the wires into the mentioned pins, any idea how I should do that best?
last issue to address, one guy posted he got it to work then no more posts from him.If I'm reading it right, it looks like a replacement harness for the trunk is $50 or so. P/N 95166042. The camera is about $105. P/N 95407397. (Both part numbers are for a 2013.) The real question is if the wires are there between the trunk and the head unit, and what kind of programming might be needed for the head unit.
Edit: Crud, you'd need a license plate wiring harness. Another $60 or so.
What year you looking? Try 15/16 limited.The harnesses you mentioned seem to be discontinued. They're unavailable on every single OEM parts store I've checked online.
