Default Reverse camera module location

If you kind chaps who have Advanced Park system with factory reverse camera could provide me with a photo or two of where it mounts in the car as I cant really tell from etka.

The reason I ask is there is two mounting brackets listed for it???

Ideally if you was to have B&O, Digital TV and the like that would help loads as there doesn't appear to be much room for another module.

Are you trying to retrofit reversing camera??

My mate fitted aftermarket one on D3 and quality is superb, it switches obviously automatically when R selected, no delays, and he will be fitting one on my car soon, warned him already

Yes I am retrofitting full factory reverse camera as I wanted it to have the steering lines that move with steering input. I have most of the bits now so was hoping to find its install location.
