    If you need +12V when car is ONLY in reverse for your aftermarket radio/camera, this is where you can tap into it on a 2005 Gen2 in the front kickpanel. (likely the same on other G2's)

    Red wire in drivers kick panel area.

    It's also behind the mfd in the center panel.

    Would you happen to have any pics or diagrams of where it would be behind the MFD? Thank you.

    2005 never had backup camera from the factory so I don't think there's a wire behind the MFD like 2006-2009 would have.
