    Hello,
    Today I did the back up camera retrofit on my F12,
    My car doesn't equipped with it, so in order to make a retrofit I need to Bought a Leonardo device and in order to do Proxi Coding change
    The Installation mostly straight forward, All plug and play, I bought the Cable from Ferrari.
    Because I don't want to do the front yet, If you want to do the Front You need to add the switch box and a button.

    wow show us where you installed the camera?

    i did a much simper version with backup camera on license plate frame and wireless transmitter to mirror that sits on top of OEM mirror. it has worked flawlessly past 4 years. tied into reverse lights to activate.

    additionally there has been an F12 brake fluid reservoir recall and the techs told me that if you have messed with the programming any the recall will brick the entire system since it uploads new firmware. they said it has happened at least 1 time and Ferrari refused to warranty it because the aftermarket programming to add reverse camera was not factory approved.

    @colonels : I install it on the foglight location, it is same place as original Ferrari Camera install, all look Factory.
    About programing
    There're many issue can cause programing failure, even at the dealer.
    The Galileo only change the coding data, not programing. So it wrong to blame it.

    it sits on top of existing mirror with rubber straps. very easy.
    i don't believe they sell the proper windshield mount to replace mirror completely.
