Considering HU replacement- Is there such a thing as a harness to plug in my OEM backup camera?

    Thanks for stopping in. I tried searching but didn't find anything relevant to my scenario.
    Just bought a 2015 Prius model 3, non JBL, with OEM backup camera. I'm on the fence about replacing the HU but know it's the best for clean sound. Is there a way to plug in the OEM backup camera to an aftermarket HU? Has this been done before with a harness or something?

    Get the android pumpkin. It interfaces seamlessly with the oem Prius unit. Best 380$ you'll ever spend.

    You just need to find your camera feed wire color (consult wiring diagram for your year), remove/isolate that from the harness head you took out of oem hu and be sure to splice or connect that wire to the input on your head unit. It will probably be a one wire splice. Easy.
