Image B applies to cars with trailer module (TRM):
The image shows the location of the control module for the parking assistance camera (PAC) together with the trailer module (TRM).
- Ensure that the control module for the parking assistance camera is positioned so that it and the wiring do not rub against the trailer module (TRM).
- Disconnect the green 5-pin male connector (1) from the trailer module (TRM) and connect to the green 5-pin female connector (2) in the adapter cable. Connect the remaining green connectors (3) in the adapter cable to the parking assistance camera module and the trailer module (TRM).
- Take the ground lead from the prerouted adapter cable. Route it backwards along the cable duct and the thin cable harness to the rear crossmember.
- Pull the cable over to the right-hand side of the crossmember and connect it to the existing ground terminal.
- Tighten the ground screw. Tighten to 10 Nm (7.5 ft.lb.).
- Wash the rear crossmember using isopropanol where the ground lead is to be taped. Wipe dry.
- Secure the cable using cable ties and wide pieces of silver/fabric tape or similar.
Note! The ground lead must only be taped at the rear crossmember, it must not be secured by the thick cable harness.
Preparations, passenger compartment
- Remove the dashboard's left-hand end panel by carefully twisting it (1) using a weatherstrip tool until the two catches release and then pull it backwards (2).
- Remove the rear sill panel at the left-hand front door by first carefully prying off the middle clip and the rearmost clip.

- Remove the four screws for the combined instrument panel. Insert a weatherstrip tool between the combined instrument panel's upper edge and the dashboard so the edge releases, and pull out the combined instrument panel.
- Disconnect the connector on the rear side and place the instrument panel to one side.
Applies to all models
Illustration A
- Insert the tool, part no. 9512943 in the joint between the loudspeaker grille and the dashboard approximately as illustrated, until it engages.
Note! There is little space between the grille and the dashboard and it is easy to damage the paint on the grille. Therefore, insert paper or a thin piece of plastic in the joint between the grille and the tool before installing the tool, to protect the paint.
- Turn the tool 90° so that the hook engages with the underside of the loudspeaker grille.
Illustration B
- Pull upwards until the loudspeaker grille detaches, it is secured with six clips. If necessary, move the tool closer to the clips to facilitate the removal.
Note! Do not damage the dashboard and grille.
- Remove the six screws in the bracket for the screen and pull it up.
- Remove the connectors and place the module to one side.
Cable routing and connecting to the screen.
Illustration A

Illustration B
- Pull out the B pillar panel at the lower edge until the two clips release.
- Continue to route the cable harness inside the B pillar panel and forwards in the car. Route the cable harness along the left-hand side, in front of the floor and insulation panels, up to the front edge of the door opening.
Illustration C
Only applies to left-hand drive cars
- Route the cable harness inside the floor and insulation panels, up on the A pillar slightly, and then at an angle upwards, in through the lower hole behind the end panel, towards the dashboard. Route the cable harness to the location for the screen in the dashboard.
- Place the cable harness so that it does not come into contact with sharp edges or moving parts under the dashboard.
Only applies to right-hand drive cars.
- Take a piece of wire and insert it by the air ducts through the hole for the screen. Pull it out to the left, above the glove compartment and out through the left-hand end of the dashboard.
