Use zip ties to secure the wires from falling out or hanging. The door sills will just pop out (Only clips holding the piece) Step 8: BCUS2 connection - Using a 14-16 gauge male bullet connector, connect the power wire from the backup camera to the white wire on the BCUS2 Using electrical tape, tape the two bullet connector connections for extra protection.
