The installation process
From camera position to final image test.
1
Inspect the vehicle
We assess the rear mounting area, cable route, display and reverse-trigger requirements.
2
Select the camera
The camera style and viewing angle are matched to the vehicle and intended use.
3
Route and secure wiring
Wiring is concealed, protected, secured and passed through suitable vehicle entry points.
4
Test the finished system
Triggering, image orientation, camera angle and display operation are checked before handover.

A good camera is only as reliable as the installation.
Poor camera installs can create flickering images, water leaks, damaged wiring, weak mounting, incorrect image angles or unreliable triggering.

- Cables hidden and secured throughout the vehicle
- Appropriate treatment of external cable entry points

Frequently asked questions
Everything to know before booking.
Can you install a reverse camera in an older car?
Yes. Many older vehicles can be upgraded using a mirror monitor, separate screen or compatible aftermarket head unit.
Can I keep my factory stereo?
Often, yes. A mirror monitor, separate screen or factory-screen interface may be suitable depending on the vehicle.
Can the camera display through an Apple CarPlay head unit?
Yes. Most suitable aftermarket CarPlay and Android Auto head units include a reverse-camera input.
Can you retain my factory reverse camera with a new head unit?
Often, but not always. Some factory cameras require a dedicated interface, voltage conversion or vehicle-specific wiring solution.
Can you install a camera on a ute tray or canopy?
Yes. Camera placement and cable routing are selected around trays, canopies, tailgates and accessories.
Can you install a camera on a caravan or trailer?
Yes. Caravan and trailer systems may use a dedicated monitor and connection between the tow vehicle and trailer.
Can I use the camera while driving forward?
Some systems can be configured for manual or continuous viewing, particularly for caravans, fleets and commercial vehicles. This requires the correct display and wiring setup.
How long does installation take?
Most standard installations can be completed within the day. Complex vehicles, canopies, caravans or factory integration may take longer.
Do you install customer-supplied cameras?
Yes, provided the kit is a suitable recognised brand, compatible with the vehicle and includes the required parts.
Do wireless reverse cameras work well?
Wireless systems can suit some applications, but a properly wired camera is generally preferred for consistent image quality and reliable operation.
Will the camera show parking guidelines?
Many cameras or displays provide fixed guidelines. Dynamic moving guidelines depend on the vehicle and interface and are not available in every setup.
What camera position is best?
The ideal position depends on the vehicle. We consider visibility, centre alignment, mounting security, weather exposure and how the vehicle is used.
Can you install front or side cameras too?
Yes. Multi-camera systems can be designed for 4WDs, commercial vehicles and specialised visibility requirements.
What warranty do I receive?
Garage Audio provides a lifetime workmanship guarantee on our installation. Product warranty depends on the supplied equipment and brand.
