Default Rear View Cam hook up?

I have a AVIC-Z130BT and I need to hook up the reverse wire.

Where do I find the reverse cable I need to tap in to any one know?

It's a pain to get to but it's worth it. If you have big hands like me expect to curse a lot but once you tap into it you will be jumping for joy.

Look way back there you will see 2 wiring harness. The top one you will see the red wire. The red wire is your trigger.

This was the single most frustrating modification I've ever had to do to a car. almost 2 hours later, I finally got the f****ng wire tapped into it. Partly my fault for not checking the actual wire tap for which side which wire goes into.... yes, I had the red wire on the blocked side so I was trying and trying so hard to get the clip to close... fml

But yes, jumping for joy when I put it in reverse and the screen came on and said to check my surroundings! The actual camera hookup will be waiting for another day. It's going to be raining for at least today.

Thanks Creepur!

Hey everyone I have a 2011 tc and I bought the 2015 tc touch screen motor and a camera online. I have the touch screen working fully bit the camera does not come on when I go into reverse. The harness I plug into the radio has a 16 pin connector that says some model use it. Does your model use it and if no what could I have done wrong haha?
