Keep Your Golf MK7's Factory Reverse Camera After a Head Unit Upgrade

Product Overview

The Stinger SCVWRT2 is a reverse camera retention adaptor designed to maintain the factory OEM reverse camera when installing a compatible aftermarket head unit in the Volkswagen Golf MK7 5G series (2014–2018), including the GTI variant. It passes the factory camera signal through to the new head unit, preserving reverse camera functionality without additional camera wiring.

Please note: in some installations, video noise or lines may appear in the camera image. Stinger recommends the PACRPA-VA1 video noise filter (sold separately) to reduce or eliminate this where it occurs.
