Retrofitting Emblem Camera to Polo 6C
Retrofitting Emblem Camera to Polo 6C
Anyone know if you can retrofit a reversing camera to a 6C and if so what I would need to do it?
Have seen this http://www.carsystems.pl/vw-rear-emblem ... d1004.html
Anyone know how hard it is to get to the back of the emblem? Does it just plug into the CMS?

Apparently so.

Shame about the drain hole, would have preferred not to cut into the car
Re: Retrofitting Emblem Camera to Polo 6C
Is that a pre-existing hole?

I'm not so knowledgeable in this department but isn't €399 (£309) quite expensive for this, considering the factory option is around €310 (£240). Would sourcing the parts direct (if possible) from VW be cheaper?
I only ask as I was considering this option but didn't add it to my order in the end, but still would like to have it.

As I understand it. The rear view camera on a 6C is down by the licenseplate. Not in the rear emblem.Tank Montana wrote:I'm not so knowledgeable in this department but isn't €399 (£309) quite expensive for this, considering the factory option is around €310 (£240).

Then CarSystems could just have sold you the camera/VW handle for a 6C if that was available instead of the Mk 6 Golf badge and adapter ring.

Re: Retrofitting Emblem Camera to Polo 6C
Yeah, that would explain the price difference. I thought the badge/handle version was the normal one as I hadn't seen any others.
For those wondering, this video shows the factory installed camera is under the edge of the license plate area on a 6C, as mentioned Mart!n-GTI-DK.

Expensive or cheap
The only car that I like is the Bugatti Veyron, is it expensive or cheap?
Possible or not possible.
I suppose a glass of water on the moon has to be quite expensive ... It would have to pay to all who made possible carry this glass of water to the moon.
Sometimes, money is not important... the fewer times
.
Solution; No thirst on the moon.
Thousands of POLO 6R have RVC in the emblem.
The price of RVC emblem POLO 6C of CARSYSTEM is very competitive and they give excellent service. 1000% recommended.

Re: Retrofitting Emblem Camera to Polo 6C
So would the bending lines work with a 6C? Or does the CMS only support the licence plate camera?
