2016 BRZ Hikari (Hyper Blue) with OEM headunit like the attached pic
Any suggestions on getting an aftermarket camera kit to work with this unit and also comes with wiring n everything?
Thanks

This is what I use. Works pretty well.

Might also need this to plug into your pre 2017 head unit.

Thanks! I ordered the harness and its on the way
However the camera says its 12V it works fine with you OEM DC supply? From what I read its only 6v supply.

Yep! The camera and the harness will work with just those things. At least it did for me in the FRS. It should be the same with the BRZ. There's going to be a red wire coming from the camera, you need to supply that with 12V. You can tap into pin 2 of the 28pin connector behind your head unit for 12V. You'll still need some way to tell your head unit that you're in reverse. I honestly forgot how I did this. I just remember tapping into a pink wire or something down by my left foot.

There's quite a few videos and threads on how to hook it all up. But those 2 things I sent you for sure you'll need. You might need some extra wire for that reverse signal.

Thanks again, I will try to see if the camera I bought can operate under 6v if not I will tap into 12v.
