Any updates on this?

Could the OEM camera work with a standard yellow RCA input like on an aftermarket interface if you cut the factory connector off and put on an RCA? I like the idea of using the OEM camera and license plate light assembly with it integrated.

991/981 PCM 3.1 reverse camera wiring

I am trying to retrofit the OEM reverse camera.
The wiring seams possible to achieve.
but I don't know how the PIWIS coding
do I need a code to active the function?

You will need piwis 2 or 3. Scan all modules, select PCM module and clear any faults. Go to coding > manual coding > confirm (f12) > select “reverse camera” or “rear park assist + camera” depending on pcm version. Check the box and confirm (f8). Exit out of piwis, and turn car on and press car button on radio and go to options and you should see backup camera settings.

Any luck with this? I borrowed a PIWIS II and it's all in german. Even with google translate, I'm having finding any of the settings as suggested in this thread (and also on the Maxspeed website)
