I tend to look over my shoulder and is free
I think you might be right, it looked quite daunting when I first looked but I reckon I'll be ok.Putting a proper wired one takes half an hour and you know it won't fail.

Would you be able to take few pics of when your doing the wiring as im planning to do this on my headunit too, would appreciate it
I'm halfway through this, I ran the cable from the stereo, behind the glovebox, up the windscreen pillar, across the roof and I now have the cable coming out the back.It's actually very easy. I have done this half a year ago.
* Start from the headunit getting the cable through centre console under the plastic which is below the steering wheel
* Remove the plastic trim between the floor and the doors, route the cable through there
* The cable should now be almost in the boot, raise it through C pillar all the way to the top of the boot lid
* Run it down the side of boot lid (all behind the plastic trims of course)
* Connect it to the camera
Make sure to give the +12V constant feed to the camera, otherwise it won't work. Getting the +12V from reverse light will NOT work on 8P as it is CAN BUS controlled. Just get a +12V feed from rear wiper motor or +12V outlet in the boot (if you don't have a socket for +12V in the boot, you still have the wiring, it takes 2minutes to find a proper wire with engine off).
It's all been pointless, the new camera isn't the same size or fitment as the number plate light housing. All back together again now.
It looks like it should fit but just a bit longer.i would have thought that's the first thing you would have checked.

Glad you sorted it out mate. My reception is terrible as well, if you find a way to fix it, please update here.
Right, bit of a newbie question here, can anyone give me a dummies guide to fitting a wireless camera to my android head unit
Check this link out as it is a good read about the aerial . ( http://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/converting-symphony-ii-antenna-system-use-with-rnse.67896/ )Sorted it, cheated and got a mechanic friend to figure it out.
Next job is the aerial, got a booster and run power to it. But the reception is still ****.

Can’t help sorry mate, ages since I did it and don’t have the car anymore.Which one is the 12v, going to attempt this next weekend

Wiper should have constant 12V. Boot 12V socket as well if you have one.
