I got a nearly identical unit except mine runs on a rockchip px6 processor. A problem that I ran into is that the native gps radio seems to not be able to get a gps fix. I've tried several antennas from different units that I know work. I'm on my second replacement for the same issue. Can you by chance install a gps test app on your unit and see if you can get full gps lock?

Mines seems to working fine. What app did you use to test?

nvm looks like adjusting my antenna away from head unit fixed the issue.

Ok so I finally got it through. I used ones of these grabbers, ran it through the car side of tube, grabbed end of RCA cable. I taped it up with electrical tape for good measure and used petroleum jelly. Pulled the cable through with ease.

Had to buy some wire to run the trigger and ground wire to harness that's right below the trunk latch. Hopefully tomorrow I can run everything so I can have my backup camera up and running.

No, I have the 2013. Mines didn't come with the camera. I used the one included with the HU.

Yeah my oem one is pretty bad. It displayed in the mirror at first. Then I put in my pioneer HU and made it display on that screen. It’s like blowing up an already crappy quality image.

Are there any adjustments for the guide lines? In your photo it leads you to believe there is room for your whole car back there. Hahaha
