@WhiteP85, BTW I'd be willing to contribute $50 to your get a camera fund if you'd like.
Good news! The new board works and switches the cameras so the hard part is done!

Congrats WhiteP85!
Maybe soon, we can work on adding cameras under the side mirrors and then combine all four video streams to create an all-around birds-eye view video that we can switch to with a touch of the screen!
Warning, trailer hitch detected in road! :wink:Thanks. We should add rotor blades to the car and add a camera to the bottom too ;-)
I'm pretty excited about this. Even with the parking sensors I managed to slightly ding the lower black part of the front bumper the first week I had the car. Looks like a pretty elegant solution.
How much of the car will need to come apart for this? I tried to figure it out, but didn't have much luck with this thread up to 40+ pages now. Presumably the front cone, up into the frunk fusebox, through the firewall, and to the removal of the 17" display/computer unit in order to get at the camera input to plug into the switch?
That sounds vastly easier than I pictured. Really excellent work. Major kudos.Not much. The only real challenge is threading the camera cable through the front grille and up into the space under the driver's side frunk cover panel. Not sure if the bumper has to be removed for that, but probably not if we know the route through the spaces that can't be seen. Holes in the firewall are definitely not necessary, and not recommended. The cable then threads through the narrow space in the driver's side fender and into the kick panel, where the PCB will be mounted and the touch screen connection made. As the short cable that connects to the touchscreen is easily accessible under that kick panel, there is no need to remove or otherwise mess with the touchscreen itself.
Think of it this way. The PCB will have three simple plug in connections, one each for the front and rear camera and the other for the touchscreen. This will be made with a set of the Chinese cables or the Tesla cables. Power will be provided from Tesla's current camera system itself so there should be no need for a connection to the fuse box.
It really should be quite easy.

Is there an alternative mounting place if you don't have a front plate? I might have a plate installed just to support this, otherwise.
So we are close now and my next step is to correct the PCB and prototype what I hope will be the production design.
