Reverse light unit
Afternoon everyone. Hope you are well. I just need a little advice please if possible. So I'm trying to do 2 things here, both of which are connected with the reverse live wire. I am installing my reverse camera and my parking sensors, both of which require a connection to the reverse unit and the live. Is this on the left for a 2013 model or the right (drivers side UK). I think I've worked out how to get the unit out so I can get to the cluster as I cannot for the life of me remove it with that unit in as me hands are too big. I can see the unit but just can't disconnect the plug. I guess once I've got the unit out,I can connect a multimeter to the cluster one by one to see which is the live and presume I just connect the 2 red live wires on the sensor unit and the camera after this. Thanks in advance guys.

Re: Reverse light unit
Not knowing which gearbox you have this may be irrelevant, but I connected my reverse camera to the gearbox end of the reverse light wiring, it just meant a shorter run, but that was on a Mazda so may not be possible on your car.
