Feel free to ask any more questions. I pretty much just replaced everything but the factory wiring on the stereo (Dash kit, head unit, all speakers, amplifier, sound deadening).

Thanks, I already have the pac kit so looks like I'll be tapping the wire. So I will need run a wire from the stereo to the light green wire in the trunk or is there a place to tap into closer to the stereo? Is there a reverse activated wire in the diy harness that could be tapped into by chance since that is somehow activating the mirror?

Looks like there may be a wire above throttle pedal i can tap into according to one of the diy threads. Just need to confirm location.

On another note, anyone with a front camera, where did you decide to mount? I was thinking the lower grill, and possibly the lowest slit?

Here is where I just mounted mine. Won't have it hooked up for another week or so so not sure what the image looks like.
