Someone has a procedure for removal of the trunk trim for F20 ?

I found a good picture to place the cable between the camera and the TRSVC module :

I saw on a diagram that the bus K_CAN_H/L can be connected on the module "X382*1B".
You think it's possible to do that?
Of course for this to work it is necessary that the bus K_CAN is also connected between the module "X382*1B" and "FEM".

I saw the information here:

Hello everyone,

Yesterday I managed to install the cable between the module TRSVC and the camera.
I disassembled the rear lights and the rear bumper to drill a hole with a hole saw.
I made a location for the camera to pass.
I also connected the power cable (+ 12V) in the fusebox (pin 6 of plug Z2 * 6B : F154).
Next Monday I look for the cables "FBAS" and "K_CAN".

Here are the photos :

Nice work! Cutting the bumper is never much fun.

RE: Rear View Camera retrofit (F20) - simonchs - 04-05-2019

Ar.... the hole for rear view camera should be "square" instead of "circle"

RE: Rear View Camera retrofit (F20) - hugo325 - 06-05-2019

Yes, I first drilled a round hole, then filed down to make a square.
I needed only to disassemble the left wheel to drill and run the cable.
I save time ^^

good work , I am interested to see the picture angle , I love F20 but one of the reasons preventing me of buying one is rear view camera , OEM is placed in the middle of the bumper between the PDC's . installing camera are the number plate i believe will give you more angle to the ground and the near car behind .

please post some pictures of the screen once the camera is ready and active . yes
