Any updates?  I have read thru this post.  I am not going to put the Lockpick harness in it, but I am adding the camera.  It is the only thing I am missing.  I have NAV, rear video, etc....just missed the camera

My thougths - get the camera, radio shack converter, and wire into pin 6 and 7 as stated before.  The power will come from another source.  Then I will get the GM to unlock the camera.  Am I over looking anything?

It's all pretty much the same.  Are you using the OEM camera from GM?

I am going to use the OEM camera.  I can simply splice the two video feeds into the harness correct?

Just be glad you didnt do it TMW.  It was a pain in the azz!

Yeah, I didn't want to mess with that.  I'm glad you got it all hooked up though.  You didn't waste any time, unlike me with that frickin' VSS wire.  Ha, ha.

Yeah, I wanted to get it done.  I started abou 10 AM, and messed with it throughout the day.  I was done about 4.  I didnt work straight through.  ONly ran into a few issues.  I broke a few clips, no biggie.  The rear side paneling was a PAIN in the butt to get back on.  That was probably the biggest struggle.  I ended up putting the camer right in the middle of the area we had talked about.  I dont think it looks as good installed as the factory one.  It hangs down to low and is very visible!  I wish I would have went OEM I think.  Anyways, it feels nice it is done.  But it was A lot of work and I would not recommend it to just anyone!  You could have some serious issues if you dont know a little about wiring and electronic installation.  But removing the paneling pieces is probably the most difficult, that and working on the actual tailgate area.  Kind of a pain in the rear.  I am just glad it is done, and I was succesful without any big issues!
