    Hello

    I have a japanese imported Prius.

    I am installing a aftermarket stereo system with touch screen etc.

    the jap reverse cam cable has a t connector but the aftermarket stereo see picture attached will not accept this connector as it has video in & out connections

    is there a adapter or solution to this problem?

    thanks in advance

    It’s difficult to answer from the information provided. If you could share some more details, it might be possible to suggest a solution.
    • Did the reverse (back-up) camera work with the previous stereo system? Was this a Toyota stereo system or another brand, and what was its model number?
    • Could you post some photos of the connector on the cable to the reverse camera and the corresponding connector on the previous stereo system? How many wires go to the reverse camera, and what colors are they?
    • What is the make and model of the new stereo system? Is there any information in its manual about connecting a reverse camera? For example, are there provisions for providing power for the camera or for detecting when the car is in reverse?

    Hey I know this is a very old thread, but did you get this figured out?
    Your old unit looks like the same NSZT-W62G that I had.
    Fixing this camera is frustrating me.
