Aftermarket wireless backup camera for W204
Hi Folks,

I'm new to MBWorld and saw this thread. I've purchased this camera and was looking to install it this weekend however I needed a fakra to RCA cable for the Comand system. I've ordered the cable but don't expect to get it this side of Xmas. I did manage to test the wireless camera and receiver on my TV and it worked fine. Will keep you posted on progress.

Could you post some more pictures of it? And am I right that you just replace the stock housing with this and the put your bulb into this new housing?

Thanks

Most modern cars use a Fakra series of plugs for electronic devices

Where do you guys plan on running the video to? I'm assuming that I can't run it to my regular video screen as it is rather small and certainly not the nav/media package. Insight, anyone?
