Original Audi rear view camera incl. wiring harness retrofit kit 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:
- Complete coding can be carried out using VCDS, OBD-Eleven, VCP, ODIS etc.
- The rear view camera is discreetly integrated into the tailgate handle trim
- All functions identical to a factory-installed rear view camera
- 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

- Automatic camera activation via parking assistance button
- The optical parking assistance display remains available (if installed)
- The acoustic parking assistance remains fully functional (if installed)

Installation information:

Please also note the following very important information
This retrofit kit CANNOT be used in vehicles already protected with SFD2!!
SFD stands for "Schutz der Fahrzeugdiagnose" (vehicle diagnostic protection). Many vehicles from approximately model year 2024 onwards are already equipped with SFD2, meaning that changing the vehicle configuration via standard diagnostics is currently unfortunately not possible. Further information about SFD and SFD2 can be found at the following link >> please click here <<
