Hello!

I've just popped over from the Disco 3 forum because for once its my Defender thats got me stumped.

I'm fitting a reversing camera so I can see whats going on at the towball when I back up to large trailers. All is fitted with camera on rear crossmember and cheapo Halfords DVD palyer in dash. I need to get a feed to the DVD player from the reversing light which will switch the camera on when reverse is selected. I can obviously run a wire from the rear light alongside the camera cable but its just another length of wire to mess with and go wrong. There must be something I can get to closer to the dash?? Does a reverse light feed pass through the fuse panel beneath the dash or perhaps under drivers seat?

Any help gratefully received.

The reverse light switch is on the side of the gearbox, you should be able to use this, rather than going straight to the reverse light.

Thanks B19. Does it enter the cab at any point or just romp off rearwards towards the reversing light?

very interested to see how you get on as this is a mod I will certainly be trying on my new 130. pictures would be great if poss...
