dimmer cable and Backup Camera Wiring
Hello

I just replaced my stock command with JVC KW-V940BW . Everything is working great but I had to run my own microphone and GPS (did not know what cables to use for stock and if I can use them) so I have a couple of question if any can help in :
  • FM Antenna did not work perfectly even though I did connect the blue wire to the antenna , but i am not certain of antenna cable and GPS cable
  • I am still missing parking wire (i did ground it though) and dimmer wire (if any have a picture or what is that cables colour)
  • I still need to replace the factory camera with another one I bought so was checking if any have done this so he can show me what did he disable and where did he put the wire ).

Thanks
