Customization Note:

Each of the vehicles listed on this page requires as slightly different set of wiring when installing an aftermarket system. We've got you covered! Just populate the fields on the order form below with your model's information and we will ship you the part to fit your vehicle!

Description:

If you have a backup camera in your GT-86 vehicle (Subaru BRZ, Scion FRS, or Toyota 86), we sell plug and play adapters to keep this function! (as well as many other functions)

**This adapter will not move/maintain the backup camera for vehicles that display the camera image in the rearview mirror. This modification will require a custom adapter. Please contact us!

This harness adapter maintains many of the features of your stock unit, including connecting your stock backup camera (if you have one) to your new aftermarket headunit.

The backup camera interface will provide 6 vdc to your backup camera for power and will also provide the video signal to the aftermarket headunit.

Do you want to add a FRONT camera to display on your OEM headunit? Check out the Subaru Front Camera Adapter HERE.

Installation:

The basics of the installation for the 28-pin harness are depicted here:

Camera Connection
(click to enlarge)

Install the harness
-Verify that the vehicle is off.
-Carefully remove the plastic cover around the head unit and unscrew/unbolt as appropriate. Disconnect and remove the stock headunit.
-Connect the connectors on the AutoHarnessHouse.com harness to the corresponding connectors on the vehicle's wiring harness.
-Connect the black ground wire to a ground.
-Connect all other wires as depicted above.

Connect the aftermarket headunit to the harness as follows:
-Connect the purple wire to the back-up lamp input wire on the new headunit. This is the wire that triggers the backup camera when your car is shifted into reverse. There is no need to connect the headunit wire to the backup lamp. This harness provides that connection.
-Connect the yellow RCA connector to the backup camera input connector on the headunit (This is normally a brown connector)
-Connect the red and white RCA connectors to the auxiliary audio input connector on the headunit

Configure the headunit to use the reverse camera:
-This configureation process is different for every headunit. Pioneer headunits normally come preconfigured to accept the camera but it is possible that it must be reconfigured. This is performed by navigating to the home screen and navigating to "System" > "Camera Polarity" > "Battery"

Compatibility:

2015-2021 Subaru BRZ or Scion FRS or 86
(For other Subaru models, please see This page!)
