Well camera signal wire run today, with help from Emma, nearside rear to front in the channel with the real light wires.
i did run it over to inside light area in cab, but it only needs to get to below dash pod. was plenty of cable to still go across to the nearside A-pillar, then down to dash.
from here it connects to the screen loom, which i just tucked up between head lining and metalwork above, from interior light to A-pillar, then same route down to above glove box(but remove dash pod to get hand up to find wires.

There is plenty of places to take a good dry earth and then a fused feed from second battery to the dash , then onto screen loom. Debating whether or not to fit a switch so can be perm live from 2nd battery or powered from ignition too? is it worth it?
I need to run a thin live from here to the rear for power to camera, ill just cut the earth short at rear and earth in rear somewhere close to the camera.

The screen holds well to the new rear view mirror and i can still unplug and remove screen too if i wish !

Defo be working by Thursdays Meet at JCT26 Diner, M25. :wink:
