    Adding rear view mirror w. back up camera

    Since going with MM3 I have lost my CTS2 which I was using for gauges and more importantly back up camera. I am looking at the kit in the link below. Any thoughts on the best place to connect these for power? Looks like I need 12v constant, ground, and reverse. I am a little nervous about splicing as I know how these trucks are with electrical but hate paying a couple hundred bucks knowing I could do it myself in an hr or so. This mirror is supposed to work with the factory mount on the windshield. Pulling the a pillar and running the wires isn’t a big deal since I have MM3 overhead in upper left of windshield

    You should be able to get constant 12v and ground from the power port inside the console or jump seat.

    There should be a reverse trigger wire in with the radio harness but if splicing is a concern you could always wire it to a switch.

    I ended up going a different route - RA2 radio with harness adapter from infotainment that has aux cord for aftermarket camera
