R230 SL350; R231 SL400 (SOLD), W211 E320 CDi Estate (SOLD), R129 Brabus SL500 (should not have SOLD)
Retrofitting included:-
- purchasing an OBD once use kit to enable the reversing camera function of the NTG2.5 head unit. This seems to have worked fine as per pics.
- Purchasing a camera incorporated into a number plate light cover from Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B075F55LDS
I have connected it all up but just get noise scrolling down on the screen, rather like an old CRT TV with failed vertical alignment, see attached.

Before I remove everything to check if I have snagged a cable any ideas?
The camera should be NTSC, but I am wondering if they have sent me a PAL version, as they do offer this if requested.
