How to retain factory camera on aftermarket radio
Learn how to retain your factory/OEM back up camera even if you swap radios to something aftermarket. A lot of new cars come with factory rear back up cameras but the radio/stereo sucks. But when you buy a new radio you dont want to loose your rear back up cam. In this video I show you how to retain that cam with your new radio using the metra ax-cam6v which is a 12 volt to 6 volt converter.

    Hands down simplest to follow yet most detailed video I've seen. I watched it once and doubt I have to even go back and watch it again because I don't remember something. Other videos throw too much filler in with the important stuff it's hard to keep track

And it comes with factory backup camera thank you, I understand for you it's an everyday thing but we'll give it a try, where can I find the inverters that's really all we need right tap into the ground power and then video receiving, delivering RCA video signal to stereo

    Hi JP, I am using this exact harness for my install. Here is my question - I want the factory camera to be able to come on even while driving. Where do I hook up the power wire for the harness (Blue/white). If I put it with the reverse wire, wont the camera only work on reverse? Can I add it to the red power wire for the radio? It has the steering wheel control on it too.

    1. Every car doesnt have a camera retention harness. 2. Most Camera retention harness only retain signal not power so it's only an rca in a harness and still come with step down converter cause all factory cameras are 6v. 3. If your Camera image is in the rear view mirror you'll have to use the same steps to re route signal to aftermarket radio if you want image on different screen. 4.this shows people how to do it if they vehicle doesn't have those options.
