it IS present on ASK and BOSE cars
if you have CDR , skip that step

If it’s possible to get a 6pin android video harness - that can be modified + plugged In as well. No need to for the fakra adapter as the rca reverse camVideoinput + camVideoGND is aleasy pin9+pin10 and the reverse trigger splice is already set as pin6. Pin 8 (normally camGND) will get spliced into the camPWR.
There are 2 cables to remove or snip on the generic android harness to ensure nothing gets fried - I have shipped one of these harnesses to maxW with exact instructions.
in the meantime - installing the oem harness and feeding a 12v+ to pin6 thru the harness hole should be safe and easy. Once someone does this the reverse cam for manual cars is officially solved.
Based on the 955 chart + standard android specs …. it has to work. I believe this is the approach ryan997s shop used as well.

spliced in the unused yellow trigger wire to the PCM on the combined RCA/trigger wire included in the camera kit
hooked up the 12v to the camera via ciggie lighter
then hooked the trigger to the car + via ciggie lighter
Odly enough auto config, briefly showed Camera detected
but then it failed to show any image, nothing happened.
ran auto config a second time.. now it no longer found it.
suspected maybe the trigger wire in the RCA cable was bad.. so connected a test wire straight to the yellow wire
right to the 12 out of the ciggie lighter
still no go, no camera detected..
Have errands to run, and need to let it rest, i'm very impatient in such things.. If i try to long I'll get to frustrated and reach for my brute force fix tool, which is a hammer. And that won't help either

it just dawned on me.
could the trigger be an open connection to ground
eg instead of applying 12v, it needs ground?
or perhaps it only works when you power the camera off the pccm.. I'll have to test that seperately, but need to make a connector first

Also USB port doesn't highlight on media screen, or Android Auto the same.

all needed is a confirmed 12v+ to pin6. Which will flip it to reverse camera mode (don’t need camera plugged in or powered)
was this done ?

ah, i thought yellow was factory trigger for tiptronic that went to 6
did not pull pccm out all the way this time, will do so when i get the rest of my stuff for the rear usb, on monday and pull it out properly, get all pins checked properly and do it all in 1 go

as for screen, i'm fine with it, doesn't need to be that flashy, pcm2.1 was even less flashy
I don't like to much distraction , I even like it that they did not make the screen much bigger at the expense of the *****.
bigger would not look right in the 9X7 dash.console since it was never designed for such screens, it would upset the overall design (and distract even more)

Don't forget with the 2021+ AHD front + reverse cameras, the image looks like modern oem backup cams with the 720p HD screen. not a major deal but having used both - it looks alot more pleasing.

I could go to the same shop that figured it out and get the rear camera installed. I can watch how they do it and report back. I even bought the same camera from rydeenn and I’m in LA. I’m just not keen on paying money since I’m used to DIYing this kind of mod.

based on the rest of the thread the fakra video input will work fine provided the harness isnt broken.

Suspect they may have been lazy and just flagged em all as NC, but really they have some leftover functionality from the base android unit that they didn't feel like documenting.
like extra usb ports
the USB data wire is about 3.3v
maybe switching 12V to the Pin7 would unlock some stuff on carplay or android auto??
