wiring question

okay this may be a dumb question but i rather be sure then mess it up and reinstall my back up camera!

i have ofers harness and theres a green wire im going to t-tap that into my reverse lights...
heres my question
i have a sony camera and theres a power unit. The directions says the positive wire "to the 12v power terminal of the car's back up lead"
Does that mean to tap it into my reverse lights? or a 12v source?

and is it safe to t tap twice into the same line?

i attached a pic of the positive connector!
im thinking i need to tap it into the reverse lights but i rather be safe then sorry so i decided to ask
Thanks everyone

They want you to tap it to the power wire for the reverse lights, and you will need to add a long wire back to my harness green wire too.

Good luck.
