All now installed mission to get the wires in the factory positions, runs behind cluster etc so all that has to come out, I went for a dedicated live, easy enough to get a new pin in the back of the fuse box.
New ground on the body next to fuse box.
No errors on pcm so now to Porsche to code and calibrate,

Guys just put the fuse in and bingo, comes on fine, still needs coding to b able to change the image and the pcm 4.0 does not have any settings for it.

Good result for what was said to be impossible, everyone I have spoken to said no way can it be done.

Used camera on the way from a crashed car, cheap enough, new harness ordered, it plugs into the parking sensor harness, my cars module supports it according to Porsche.
New mounts ordered from Porsche, so until the bumpers comes off not sure the wire the other side of the plug is there.
Pictures to follow.

There are no wires in the car, it needs wiring back to head unit.

Much appreciated, have all three video cables purchased from OEM plus rear wiring harness, the 991.1 GT3RS doesn’t have rear sensors so parted the rear harness of the sensors and that just left the 4 pin camera connector with bracket shown in your photos. Have the same setup with camera and bracket as shown in your photos too. Will post all part number’s shortly but still missing the 2 pin connector X251 for positive and ground I know the positive goes to fuse B3 (5A) drivers side fuse box (for UK car) and ground goes to GP21 so just need to find them now.
