Install Rear camera into itelllink system facelift insignia

[jem]

This is how I Install Rear camera into itelllink system facelift insignia



Get a cup of coffee



Remove the two side trims that run along centre console that run up to the radio they will pull of









Remove ashtray then pull the main ashtray cover off there is 2 clips at the bottom of it beware



Then remove the black or wood trim that runs over the glove box and the small one on the other side best way I got them of was start with glove box side open the glove box then at end near door pull trim out and work a long when you get to the bottom it is hooked in just lift up just do the same on other side









Then remove glove box 4 bolts holds it on you have to remove the end cover to get to 1 of the bolt







Now hard bit the screen



There is 2 bolts 8mm below the screen left and right side remove them then I pulled from the side above the bolt hole the screen will move a bit work a round the screen and it will un clip from the dash then you have to un clip the rest work down I used panel remover tool to un clip they are hard to get out when that is done you will need to remove all the plugs and yes there is a lot of them







in the picture above??in the vary is top plug which does the switches like park sensor and so then there is two under that??one, this is were you??plug your cables to the interface box as it is a loop wire



this is just just help see the clips that hold to the dash







I then started the wiring and the location of the video box that I found drivers side to be the best place for the box because one of the cables you have do is vary short

I then ran rest of the cables to n/side with the factory loom??







I had yellow wire which needs to be live all the time used a piggy back fuse into the glove box fuse

Red wire needs to be acc live again used piggy back fuse

black is earth which I found a good point which is under the side trim which runs from the front to back doors









Then you to run two cables to the back of the car

\Cam live and video cable

I ran them in with factory loom into the boot















What I then did was put the car back together when you have done that I tested all the buttons to make sure they were working ok when happy I connect the cam live cable to the camera and earth cable to the car and connect the reverse cable to the battery and watch sat nav show picture



I have spent 16 hours just doing this camera will be put in next weekend

hope this help

Where do the cables plug into on the back of the screen. You really need to use the IMG codes from ph*****cket so we don't have to keep clicking through.

If you look at the 4 picture you see were the plugs go in



ralby This the first time i have done this i did not know about IMG CODES FROM ph*****cket??i have put it right for you now

jem where did you put the interface box?

[jem]

I found that I had to fit my box on the drivers side up the top

so were you put it on gloveboxs side but on drivers side because the usb cable comes from the loom feeds from the drivers side

Very good write up and I was considering having a go at this myself but it looks far far to technical for me so think I will need to pay someone to do it now!! More cost! Lol

Get a vary small flat blade screwdriver push in on the top and pull out plug

[jem]

[dave798]

[sjpope78]

ive not got any pics at all on any page

[jem]

Well done guys for getting the pics on
thanks

[marko301]

No problem. The initial site copy didn't pick up the photos so we need to add them manually. We will get around to adding them to all the how 2s.

[jem]

Is there a like or thanks button anywhere

i remember watching this thread on ie site but there was different pics where somebody added to jems posts but did it differently and only removed the top section of the screen ie not the heater controls etc have tried looking for it but cant find it now am sure it was either cmor or bad-melt but i could be wrong does anybody else have a link to the pics i am talking about? as this is a mod i plan on doing as soon as we get a good weather weekend in manchester
