VW California T6.1 Rear Camera Installation Enhanced
VW California rear camera installation and BlackVue dash cam retrofit
This VW California T6.1 came in for a full camera overhaul — and as always with the Cali, it wasn’t a small job. We carried out a complete VW California rear camera installation alongside a front and rear BlackVue DR590X-2CH dash cam setup. 🛠️🚐
Ever tried reversing a VW California with a tailgate the size of a small wall? We’ve got you. This retrofit included a genuine VW rear-view camera system that integrates seamlessly with the factory head unit — providing dynamic guidelines and a clear feed to help avoid those sneaky bollards and tight campsite corners. 💡📷
Dual Camera Protection
Alongside the OEM camera, we fitted a BlackVue DR590X-2CH dash cam system — recording both front and rear continuously. Whether it’s a careless lane-changer or a sneaky bump in the supermarket car park, this setup keeps your journeys protected with high-quality footage and loop recording. ⚖️📹
Clean, OEM-Level Installation
Dash cam placement is everything. We routed all wiring through factory grommets and trim channels to ensure a clean, OEM-level finish. No dangling cables. No tape jobs. Just a properly installed system that looks like it was there from day one.
Tested and Properly Coded
Both the dash cam module and the rear camera were fully tested and coded using dealer-level diagnostic equipment — essential to ensure CAN communication works as intended and no fault codes are left behind. As with many vag retrofits, proper coding is critical for long-term reliability. 💻🔧
Comfort While You Wait
While this work takes a few hours to complete, customers can relax in our dedicated waiting lounge with fresh coffee, free Wi-Fi, smart TV, and a clear view of the workshop. Prefer to stretch your legs? Higham on the Hill offers a few quiet walking routes to pass the time while we upgrade your van. ☕📺🚶♂️
