As we know Car backup cameras can help you see what you can't behind the car, such as your kid's skateboard or the little garbage cans. To use a wireless car backup camera with a Garmin GPS navigation system, though, it won't be as simple as mounting the camera in the back of the car and powering it on. You'll have to mount an integration box from Garmin behind the car stereo, and then run a cable from it to the camera in the back--usually by the license plate.
You'll need automotive mount bracket with four-hole AMPS construction, a Phillips-head screwdriver, Adjustable wrench, VIB10 or VIB11 Car Integration Box, Car wiring harness, Car integration box mount, AV cables, GPS reverse camera with cables and Wire ties.
Attach your Garmin integrated mount to your four-hole bracket with the four contained screws. The 'ball socket' in the front of the Garmin mount should be facing the driver.
Attach your mounting bracket to its windshield mount following your manufacturer's instructions.
Remove your car battery's negative (red wire) then positive (black wire) leads with an adjustable wrench. Remove your car's stereo, following your particular model's specifications and installing diagram. Remove the stereo's antenna cable and wiring harness.
Hook up your new car integration box's wiring harness to your car's harness for power, stereo and speakers. Connect the AV cables to the back of the box to listen to music or watch video through your Garmin device. (If you have the VIB11, there is a 'traffic receiver' that must also be hooked up at this point with its antenna adapter cables.) Reconnect your antenna cable.
Attach your GPS car backup camera's wiring cable to the corresponding port (labeled PND) on the integration box. Run the cable along with your rear speaker wiring to the back of the car, and tie the cable with wire ties to other cabling to secure it along the way. Return the stereo carefully to its slot in the dash and reconnect the car battery.
Hook up your power cable running from the integration box to your installed car backup camera. Snap your Garmin device into its cradle and power it on. Test out the video image and the device. You can get more information from our website.
