Part 1: Getting an Installer & Cable Modifications (Optional)
First things first, find an installer to setup all the cabling you need in your vehicle to power the cameras and the PL8RDR. Verify with your installer how you want your setup to function. They will be able to decide how your new equipment gets powered and how everything gets cabled.
Please note: Your installer may have to modify the provided cables. The Survision Camera cable has a car adapter which could need to be cut off, and the 12V 5.5x2.5 Male-Female Power Plug put in its place.
