Retrofitting Lane assist camera without changing windshield?

[gc9n]

Should be fine, looks like mine



Make sure to print it with ABS or PETG, as PLA is not that heat resistant. Under the windsheild it may get reeeeaaaaly hot during the summer.

BTW. It's not that simple with 3Q0 camera, as the maximum length of an extension cable that is possible to use is around 20cm. Also the extension cable has to be 30 pin. The only way to do it right is to mount the control module to the windscreen and hide it under oem plastic cover.

Thanks for your response, yea sure the filament will be a good one maybe nylon.

About the cable. I didn't know that! The newer camera needs 30 pins? And only 20cm. That is changes everything...
Did encounder any problem with the 40cm in your camera. How did come into that conclusion?

Ok the Pins are 34 not 30 , Again Why this will not work with for examle 40cm cable? is it a lag matter?
as you can see there is a diff in the camera layout also .

Anyway i need from you guys some help for the cable harness ,
I have to connect it , Now! and later on i will see what i will do with the camera,
i will at least install the cable..
i will post some pics with it.

Its probably lag, but the only thing this ribbon cables do is just extend each pin on the connector so it should work exactly the same.

Do you mean the harness that goes to the car?

Yea! the harness that goes down below drivers left leg , (non UK) I have the SKODA Karoq.

i must pull out the hood release handle in order to remove the cover and expose that brown and red big plugs .

i have a cable from kufatek , and they send me instructions for it,its ridiculous , they propably google translate it from german to english , its terrible.

i will verify with the multimeter if the piotrekp's Connection diagram is exactly the same with the cable that they made, because as you can see they just added 2 stickers for the front assist/acc

they added an extra cable also , and they told me that

"this wiring to connect the frontassist sensor.
The 2 wirings which goes into the brown connector need to have on the opposit side of the brown connector also a wiring which will be routed and layed to the sensor in the front."

do you understand anything from it ?
imaging how terible is the manual!!!

this is the part that i have to take apart and expose the plugs,

i also have to mention , that i have front assist

Thats pretty wierd.
I Bought mine off aliexpress and it was really easy to identify what goes where.

In your case i can see a ground and the one on the left is for power,
The two twisted wires go to the can gateway and the two others that are marked go into the front radar (if you have one).

And there should be another connector for the camera heater but it is unused in our case.

the one for power ,i guess according to kufateks manual goes to the fuse box , Ignition Plug 32

Well, in my MK7 It is in the fuse number 32 inside the cabin. So sounds good.

I manage to remove the plastics , from those plugs i need only the upper right Brown one for the Pin 11 and 9 , that goes to the Front Assist ...

Now for the other 2 cables and the Can Gateway manual say Connect the can wires Can bus 1 to the 20-pin (Red) plug of the can gateway m Is the one sitted above the foot pedal.
I cant locate this..

Hmm, You wont be able to see the gateway without actually putting your head near the pedals. its behind the steering wheel. but if you have the radar then you will have to tap into the gateway pins. because there will already be a wire there.
