The default rear cable is 6M(19.68 feet), and you can buy a longer cable(8M/10M) separately from our store, 

We do not suggest extending it on your own.

First, as the camera needs a constant power supply to record, you need the hardwire Kit (HK4) and fuse tap to take electricity from your car battery, connect the red BAT cable to a port with constant power and the yellow ACC cable to the accessory port (no power when the engine is off), the ACC cable can detect voltage change and then send a signal to the camera, so the camera can switch between parking mode and driving mode freely.

Here is s simulation video.

Please note that hardwire Kit (HK4) and fuse tap needs to be purchased separately.

The transparent stickers are static stickers, which can be attached to your car windshield before installing the camera.
