help on oem reverse camera retrofit

i got the Wire Harness /camera and installation guide from the forum. before i started, just want to make sure i got everything ready

pic1: the installation guide on wire harness: it mentioned yellow/grey line to reverse light





pic2: what i got in the kits on yellow/grey line







pic3 &4 : it mentioned i need to have a potential distributor to connect the yellow/grey line together with the same color line that has been there (reverse light) but seems all sockets are full..









question: where do i get the potential distributor and how to fix it?


pic5 & 6: do i need to open the fuse carrier in the kit and insert in the fuse carrier on the car? a bit confused why they supply with sth. already there








thx for patient for the stupid question and let me know if you have any ideas

There are plenty of resources for this on the forum. Search.

Also, in the DIY sticky, there are 3 links about it.

Usually for common DIY's, you can find them already made with a little searching.
