Ford Transit Custom reversing camera installation, generation by generation.

On 2018-on Mk1 vans with SYNC 3 and on every Mk2 with SYNC 4, yes: the camera feeds the factory screen through a camera interface or as a factory-style retrofit and comes up when you select reverse. Earlier Mk1 vans with the 4-inch display radio have no usable screen, so the picture goes to a mirror monitor or to the Android screen if we fit one.

High on the left-hand door, above the window line or on the door-mounted number-plate light, so the picture stays level when the doors are shut and the loom crosses the hinge in a protected sleeve. On a Tourneo Custom with a tailgate the camera sits in the handle area. Either way the run to the cab is hidden behind the trim or under the floor of a fitted-out van.

It depends on the generation. Mk1 (2012–2023): from €150; Mk2 (2023 on): from €150. Fitting is done at our Dublin 11 workshop — send the reg and we confirm the exact price before you book.

Mk1, built 2012–2023 (Radio with a 4-inch display or SYNC 1 on 2012–2018 vans, SYNC 3 with a 6-inch touchscreen on some 2016–2018 vans; SYNC 3 with an 8-inch touchscreen and factory CarPlay from the 2018 facelift, while base Leader vans keep a DAB radio with a 4-inch display): Camera above the rear doors or on the number-plate light: shown on a mirror monitor or the Android screen on 4-inch radio vans, fed into the SYNC 3 screen through a camera interface on facelift vans. Mk2, built 2023 on (SYNC 4 with a 13-inch touchscreen, wireless CarPlay and Android Auto from the factory): Factory camera retrofit coded into SYNC 4 with guidelines, or an aftermarket camera on the rear doors fed into the 13-inch screen through an interface.

Two to three hours on the Ford Transit Custom Mk1 and Mk2. You can wait at the workshop or drop the car in the morning and collect it the same day.

On every Transit Custom we work on — Mk1 and Mk2 — the parking sensors keep working and the camera comes up automatically in reverse, with guidelines where the screen supports them.

Yes — send the reg or the year and generation (Mk1 and Mk2) on WhatsApp or the form below, and we confirm the route, the price and the next free slot. The work carries a one-year warranty, and the workshop is in Rosemount Business Park, Dublin 11, Monday to Saturday.
