Wiring for rear view mirror camera

[Wake]

I would like to wire up a rear view mirror camera and use this rather than the standard rear view mirror in my grenadier. I expect that I will need to run wiring through the roof space to a camera at the rear of the vehicle.
So does anyone know if I can simply run a cable by unscrewing one of the overhead plates where the switches are and push a cable to the rear of the vehicle. Also will i find power in the roof space that can be hooked into to power the rear view mirror camera.
Thanks for any help

Yes on both counts. The overhead panel is actually just one single panel, have a search on here on how to remove it.

I tried just last week to get it through the centre of the roof but couldn't get it past half way. I just ran video cable down the drivers side roof line above the door seals. Lots of methods on here.
Hardest bit was getting it from back corner through the original wiring harness to the back large door. It's doable. Just finicky. Got to take your time.
There is a guide on here somewhere. Search wolfbox install
