VW Polo 1,2 TSI fitting LOW reverse camera

Hello there, I am trying to fit RVC to my Polo 6R

I found the right (original) RGB camera as well as the right cabling

the problem is now that I have no idea how to install this, where do I put it

I know that some aftermarket cameras come with the license plate lights bracket (where you install the camera along side license plate lights, but sadly I can only find camera with bracket (which is of course non RGB but composite), while not bracket only

So I was wondering where did they fit original OEM camera

It seams all the guides I found are for HIGH camera (where it replaces the VW emplem and has dynamic guidelines):
for instance
https://www.drive2.ru/r/volkswagen/polo ... 571566004/
and this one
https://www.drive2.ru/l/612015386006660396
and this one are all for HIGH cameras
https://www.drive2.ru/l/569145152761758314/

But I want LOW camera
I don't even know where this is suppose to mount (for some reason I didn't find any pictures of OEM cameras fitted to Polo 6R)

Does anyone maybe have original VAG instructions? (maybe only to find the rights part numbers to mount the camera in the car physicaly)

Thanks for Anwsering and Best Regards

If this is the RVC model that you call OEM LOW,

(Scirocco style)

I make you an installation guide in less than 1 minute:
Remove the rear bumper and drill a 3x3cm hole in the very center of the bumper, thread the harness through the grommet in the bulkhead dedicated to the original wiring for the license plate lights, run the harness up to the head unit.🤷‍♂️
