This is BY FAR the best video on RUclips for installing this reverse camera on a Sprinter. There is no need to tear apart your dash OR wire anything into your fusebox. Keep it simple.
Great vid guys! to anyone reading the comments we've just done this job following the video, had a similar thing where the first blue and white cable didnt power it up, but the second one did, both look to be reverse light cables so no idea there but worth checking both! Also, tent poles are great for getting the wire through the headliner as they can be made longer or shorter if its an awkward angle!
Hey guys! Great video. I have a sprinter that has the camera installed but no leads and monitor so trying to work out what I need. I has a small green wire that comes out of the 4 pin connector on the brake light. It looks kinda like the one in your video. Wondering if you used it? Or know what it is for? Thanks.
Do you guys have a rear bumper? I see the doors are just about in the shot, I'm just wondering if it can't catch your bumper as a result of it being a little too short? Just for those extra tight parking jobs where you really need to see the edge of the bumper :)
Hey there. I've just finished installing mine. I don't know what made you struggle connecting the wire to the monitor. All i did was: remove the dome light then pushed the monitor's cable against the windscreen and catch it by my hand inside the dome light hole THEN I slided the other cable and caught it again through the dome hole and connected them together.
Hi, i have a question for you. I bought the same reversing camera and the LED module that was on the oryginal does not fit. Mercedes sprinter w 906 2011. Did you have any problems because in the movie I saw that you also did not like something. Please help.
Hi guys, good work on the van videos. I've been looking at reverse camera and unsure which one to get due to the lack of a mirror to hang it off. Which one did you actually get? I've clicked on the link but there are 4 types. would you recommend it despite the issues? Thanks
Hey Darren, yes we were in exactly the same position with no mirror. The one we got was the first one - camera & 4.3” dash monitor. I will say we didn’t get it from this particular seller but it’s exactly the same kit. And we’d definitely recommend it, yes. The issue was more with the seller than the kit itself, we’ve had zero problems since we installed it and it works a treat- wouldn’t be without it! Hope that helps but let us know if you have any other questions 😀
Yeah we find it absolutely fine. Obviously it’s not massive but the picture is crystal clear. Personally I wouldn’t want a bigger one but there’s plenty of space on the windscreen if you do opt for a larger model 😀

Thanks for this - seems like the only one that does a good job on the wiring side of things ..
Love your channel guys. Most people don't go into as much detail with the steps in their van build - really appreciating this!
Thank you very much! That’s great you’re finding it useful 😊
Was there a black earth coming from your screen...and where did you connect it to please

Well done, onward and upward now guys. Can't wait to get our van in May/June (whenever it is ready). Take care and stay safe xxx
Thanks! Not too long to wait then, that’s really exciting 😀 Safe travels 👍
Such a great videos guys, thank you! We are just beginning our new conversion and will be installing one of these bad boys soon!
Thank you! Good luck with your conversion and hope your camera install goes well!

@@chris420uk I have just seen you comment. How can I help you?
Amazing work guys! I would not know where to start, especially without instructions 😳😅
Thank you! Yeah the lack of instructions was a bit daunting but we got there in the end 😂
Asatone is good cleaner used in industry. Aka nail polish remover..👍

Well done you Two . Super nous sommes en train de le faire ! Cable blue and white ! Wonderfull . Thanks very much !
Je l'avais fait avant hier 😊
Good job guys greetings from cuba
Thank you! 😀
Nice job
thanks!
Did you have to disconnect the power from the battery or is it safe enough to disconnect the light itself on the unit?
Hey there. I've just finished installing mine. I don't know what made you struggle connecting the wire to the monitor. All i did was: remove the dome light then pushed the monitor's cable against the windscreen and catch it by my hand inside the dome light hole THEN I slided the other cable and caught it again through the dome hole and connected them together.
Great tip about removing the dome light - made what looked like a painful job into a simple 5 minute affair. Thanks
@ozzieparky
Glad that helped.
So how did you hook up the monitor? With power?
What is the screw / blot length or size?
What is the splicing device you use at 11:25 to attach to the "blue and white" cable? Nifty!!
T-taps mate
Would you be able to fit one in onto my sprinter and if so how much would you charge?
Did you have to reapply sealer?

@@TheWholeWorldorNothing thanks for the reply, yes I thought of getting the 4.3 dash monitor is this not quite small or do you find it OK?

You should of just removed the lining, as your converting a panal van that part will need to be insulated and moisture treated anyway.
Hi!! How to, with an already built up van? 🤔😥
pretty lame that it only comes on in reverse, its nice to look behind you whenever you want I should think
Not really
@@TheWholeWorldorNothing so if a car is up in tight behind you on the road and you want to see them what do you do? throw it in reverse?
Obviously not
@@TheWholeWorldorNothing a conversation one word at a time huh? So Im right that it is a limited-use camera after all that work
I will be doing the same install but I can turn it on whenever I like. ;]
