    hello everyone

    and today I set myself up to take apart the dash and run backup camera wire + extra wire to keep camera alive and recording while driving.
    which was extremely easy by the way taking apart the dash and running cable....
    "I thought it was going to be a nightmare"



    wires are set camera is not yet install run out of daylight ;)

    but issue I'm having is only getting sound out of the front speakers aside from that everything looks good so far.... looks like the wires for back door speakers are missing from the factory cables "1 white wire" an issue I would have to revisit tomorrow...

    ........

    while leaving this problem behind for the time been decided to focus on running the GPS and microphone cables which was easy as pie I may add...

    and put everything back together for next day backup camera install.. she's taking her daughter on trip hopefully they come back early..

    camera wiring and install is still on my to do list but

    gps and wifi ,bluetooth are working fine had bit of trouble because of playstore my unit been uncertified but fix that by submitting my google ID certificate

    only problem will be the rear speakers so far hopefully the backup camera is problem free....

    can anyone help me with rear speaker issues .... guess is possible that it may not have come with rear speakers I will take apart the door tomorrow or hook up the stock radio and see if i get sound back there definitely speaker grills back there weird.....

    I'm pretty sure the one trim does not include rear speakers. i can confirm that the rear speaker wiring is NOT in the same connector as the front speaker wiring. It's a similar connector type, but with fewer pins.

    IIRC, the 2012 PC1 did not even have the wiring for the rear speakers. One member who did the upgrade had to run the wires to the connector, through the door grommet.
