This rear view camera kit includes the wiring and hardware needed to add a Highline rear view camera display to compatible Volkswagen MK7 factory radios.
The Highline setup gives you moving guidelines while reversing. The guidelines turn with the steering wheel in correlation with the steering angle, making parking and backing into spaces feel much more natural than a basic fixed-line camera.
This generation of the Highline camera does not require a separate external module. The Highline module is built into the emblem assembly itself, which helps simplify the retrofit compared to older Highline setups.
Why choose Highline?
You get a more premium factory-style camera experience with dynamic turning guidelines, plus additional configurable camera display behavior.
What to expect
This is a proper retrofit. The included harness must be routed through the vehicle and the car must be coded after installation.

Installation Notes
Professional installation is recommended.
Removal of door sills, hatch trim, and interior panels is required to route the cable through the vehicle.
The included harness must be installed. This is not just a rear emblem swap.
VCDS, OBDeleven, or equivalent coding is required to enable the rear view camera input.
Highline camera retrofits require more coding knowledge than a basic Lowline camera install.
Coding requiredA scan tool and some retrofit know-how are required. This kit is intended for installers or DIY owners who are comfortable routing wiring and performing coding after installation.
Highline Cameras are the more premium MK7 rear camera retrofit because they add moving guidelines that follow steering input. This kit gives the car a very factory-feeling camera experience, but it is more involved than a Lowline kit and requires proper installation and coding.
