Original Audi rear view camera retrofit kit incl. wiring harness for Audi A1 GB Citycarver and Sportback
A rear view camera must be perfectly positioned and deliver excellent image quality – this is exactly why we offer the original camera retrofit kit for your Audi A1. Many modern vehicles have sacrificed visibility for design and safety. In many vehicle models, it is difficult to accurately judge the body dimensions both at the front and rear. Even experienced drivers can easily overlook poorly visible obstacles. Retrofitting a rear view camera can not only prevent scratches, but also help avoid serious accidents.
Function overview:
- Original Audi retrofit kit incl. activation document
- This rear view camera is activated at Audi via SVM
- The equipment "rear view camera" is registered at Audi to the vehicle identification number
- All functions identical to a factory-installed rear view camera
- The rear view camera is discreetly integrated into the tailgate handle trim
- The display appears on the screen of the radio or navigation system
- This camera features dynamic guidelines that display the driving path depending on steering angle

Installation information:
- The installation of the retrofit kit is relatively simple and can also be carried out by experienced hobby mechanics. Just like the factory installation, the camera is mounted in the tailgate and wired among other things to the radio/navigation unit
- After installation, the vehicle must be coded for rear view camera functionality. Our retrofit kit includes an activation document with license protection for this purpose. Activation can only be carried out by an authorized Audi dealership workshop – activation using VCDS, Carly or similar tools is not possible!
The special feature of this activation: the equipment "rear view camera" is officially registered at the factory to your vehicle identification number, meaning your vehicle will no longer differ from one originally equipped with a factory-installed camera.
- Would you prefer to retrofit your "rear view camera" entirely independently and without requiring Audi online activation? This is also possible. Please order our retrofit kit with article number RVC-A1GB. In this retrofit kit, we have already parameterized and pre-coded the camera for you, and the final coding can be completed using VCDS, OBD-Eleven or Carly.
