trigger signal from the reverve wire ( red/yellow ) to a Relay , wanted to take power from the fuse box but they use micro 2 fuse and I didn't have the fuse taps for that , so 12v directly from the battery with a fuse ofcourse

I think the reversing lights on my XC60 are useless in dark areas, and tbh even the 360 cameras at night in the dark are pretty poor, especially when you are near black cars or anything of dark colour, but this is just made worse as the reversing lights are so poor.

I've "upgraded" from a Merc C350e to a S90 T8 which I love, mostly.
I've got the 360 degree camera in the S90 in the S90 as I did in the Merc and the Merc solution was 100% better. It's cameras popped out when in use so where impervious to the cleanliness of the vehicle whereas the S90 seem to permanently exposed, the upshot is that the Merc's display was always crystal clear whilst the S90's can be such a pain to see, especially with it being such a long vehicle..

Are the V90 reverse lights not H21W?
Thats what my manual states. the PY24 are the front direction indicators.

None of the 360 cameras are used for PA.
