Just some more info.. I kept having issues with the camera switching working intermittently. It turns out having the gala wire connected back at the head unit was causing this, it was blocking Video in Motion/Camera switching.

Welcome! Air bag light can be solved with a resistor, its usually the occupancy sensor (mat) that fails due to age Slow seat belts happen only in winter, due to age.

No one wants to have a car stuck on the lift for weeks after some bush is no longer available.

You can probably make a good start by just collecting all the parts required, that's a challenge in itself.

I found this magic device which plugs into (now defunct in all cars) TV tuner which automatically switches to the reverse camera when you put the car in R, and back into home screen once you go out of reverse. It takes a standard cvbs aftermarket camera signal, and uses the reverse light 12v as ...
