I modified the RCA cable that came with the camera to replace the RCA plug with two of the corolla cluster plug terminals, then clipped those into the factory 86 headunit loom plug.

My factory headunit only puts out 6V for the camera power, so I also used a mini relay to switch in ignition 12V for the boyo camera, triggered by the headunit 6V wire.
Do you have any pictures of it in action?
