Add 09 backup camera and emblem to 04-08
I have a 08 F150 extended cab. Anybody know what side of the cab the wires come down from the roof harness?
Left or right side and front or rear of cab? Camera is installed, Display mirror is installed, Getting ready to run the wires. With a little luck this will work.
I have a new camera with emblem that I don't need if anybody is interested. Make Offer.

I am in the process of adding the emblem camera also, and was wondering if you know if I am going to use the backup camera, but also the 09' rearview mirror would I have to splice any wires still like the Video, power, etc??
Or will the harneses pretty much be plug and play?
OR will the video harness run straight to the screen, but i will have to find power, etc??
Any help from anyone would be great....

Culprit, I think the answer to your questions are hit & miss. On my 09, I installed the camera to an existing Sony Nav radio. I had to run all my own wires. I talked to a few other guys who said there were some wires there. I think you will need to do some investigating first. Hope this helps!
I wanted to report that I followed these instructions with some slight deviations to install an emblem camera in my '04 Supercrew. I used a hole saw in my drill to create the hole for the camera in the tailgate. Since the bit is not made for cutting metal I kept it cool with a little bit of water and the hole was finished in no time. Also, the harness that I received with my camera had different color wires than mentioned in the tutorial. This is how my harness was laid out.
1. Gray = 12V
2. Black/Orange = Shield
3. White= not used
4. Brown = Video +
5. Brown/Yellow = Video -
6. Black/Green = Ground
I used standard RG-6 coax cable as my video cable with the Video + (brown) wire soldered to the inner copper wire in the RG6 and the Video - (Brown/Yellow) soldered to the outer woven wires. At the received end of the video cable I terminated the RG6 with an F connector and screwed on an RCA adapter to plug in to my Pioneer head unit. Finally, I used the Black and pink wire located under the driver's door sill as the reverse trigger to the head unit.
If anyone is looking for an emblem camera, I received mine on ebay from a seller named nailsandsales. She was very friendly and shipped the camera the day after I sent payment. She has the camera listed for $125.00, but she accepted my best offer of $100 plus shipping. Hope this is helpful to anyone else interested in installing this camera.
