Where do you place the red wire of an aftermarket rearview camera?

Model: (Various brands) Various

When deciding to install an aftermarket rearview camera on a car that does not come standard with one, we must have some knowledge of electronics, as these devices are rarely plug & play, and navigating through the various wire connections may not be within everyone's reach. The YouTuber gives us a suggestion regarding the question: where does the red wire go? We would have already connected the red and black wire to the reverse light. If we have a reverse-count connector with a wire that splits, we can connect it to the orange cable, otherwise we must look for the pink wire - which is the back wire - that goes from the CANBUS to the radio connector. Usually this wire does not have a third connection wire, so we must connect it to the connecting PIN. And it will work.
