Each vehicle has different interior so there is no one specific guide. The kit comes with four cameras. The left and right side camera can be installed under each side's mirror. Rubber rings provided are to give the camera an angle in case the mirror's bottom is not perfectly horizontal.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT connect this unmarked white wire to any 12V source. This is IR wire. Connecting it will damage the IR sensor.
On the main harness, the yellow loose wire connects to constant power. Red wire connects to accessory. Black wire goes to ground.
On the main harness, there are four color connectors(red, yellow, blue and black), each has a tag labeled for which camera. Except for front camera, there is a white wire behind each connector. The white wires are trigger wire for each "mode". The system will switch to the camera that is triggered by 12V. So you want to connect each wire wire to each signal light such as left turn signal light, right turn and backup lamp. When those signal lights are lit up, your bird view system will switch to perspective camera to provide vision.
Extra black connector that looks like front camera's connector is shock sensor's connector.
There are four extension wires provided with each camera. On each extension wire, there are two white wires acting as extension wire for those trigger wires so no extra wiring is needed.
On the main harness, you can also find two female RCA ports. One is red labeled CVBS and the other one is blue and labeled with AHD. Those two ports are the video output of the bird view system. You want to connect that to the video input of your radio.
If you have a radio that is running on PX6 chip, please use AHD port for video as it provides more clear image. You can use CVBS too but lower quality. On radio, go to app list - camera/monitor on the left - choose "back view" to access the images. If you do not get signal, please check settings - install set - that 8861 - reverse image format - choose CVBS/AHD.
If your radio is below PX6 like PX3, please use "CVBS" port.
In the package, there is a male to male RCA cable. Please use that to connect between bird view system to the radio.
The AUX port on the radio is provided for IR receiver. Please leave the receiver outside so the bird view system can receive command.
The system in controlled by a remote. Insert 2 AAA batteries before using it.
The USB port can be used to store videos recorded by the system. Recording automatically starts when flash drive is inserted.
Camera Placement
Use the extension cable with heat shield for front camera. Place front camera either on grill or license plate. Make sure camera is centered and can see the ground.
Place rear camera at the center of the trunk or license plate as well.
To install left and right camera, please remove factory side mirrors shell first. run wires on each mirror and locate a proper place to mount camera on the shell. Make sure the wire and camera will not get into the way of the mirror's movement, like power mirrors. Then use drill bit provided to drill a hole at the bottom of each side mirror's shell. Use rubber ring provided to mount the cameras. If needed, use two 15 degree ring.
The rubber rings comes with two types: one is flat and the other one has 15 degree tilt to it. Choose the appropriate one so that the camera can cover each side fully.
For the back camera, please use the camera provided as the factory one has different specs on it and will not calibrate.
On the main computer box, connect the main harness that will connect to the four cameras. Also connect the IR receiver, which has a AUX plug. If your package comes with a shock sensor, connect that and secure sensor to the side wall inside the console space.
The 360 camera is operated via remote control.
Put 2 AAA batteries to the remote control then follow the video below to calibrate it.
Calibration
Place the calibration cloth at the front and the back of the car. Make sure the cloth is align with the edge of the car in the front and the back of the camera.
Measure the distance between the cloth to each front wheel and make sure they are the same. Repeat for the two rear wheels.
Make sure both cloths are perfectly centered with the vehicle as well.
Measure the distance between the two cloth in CM, which will be your "car length".
After that, measure the distance between your two wheels then plus 20 CM. That will be your "car width".
After collecting the data, go to setup option - calibration - choose first option, you should see a preview of the four cameras:
Make sure the front and back bumpers are visible to the cameras and make sure the calibration cloth is aligned with the edge of the bumpers and centered.
Make sure the side camera can see both front and back black grids. Then click next.
On the next page, please enter the data measured before, including the width and length of the car
No Signal Error
If you have a turn knob controller and once connected to the head unit and you do not see any images. Please make sure your head unit supports CVBS format then connect the yellow female RCA on our unit to your radio's backup camera input. Turn off our unit by disconnecting the red and yellow power wire. Reconnect the two wires then press and hold the center button on the turn knob immediately for at least 12 seconds. After that the system will default to boot under CVBS-NTSC mode. Please go to setting - display - resolution - change the resolution to CVBS-N mode then type in passcode 8888 - ok to set it there.
