Rotary Rasp,
I just wanted to confirm that you do indeed have manual transmission vehicle and this still works?
The reason I'm so interested in this is, well canbus does not have the signal for reverse on a typical manual transmission car. Even those multimedia interfaces such as this one:

tell you to tap into reverse light on manual transmission cars in order to activate the module to switch input to rear view.
So this means that the reason PDC is required is that it sends reverse gear signal onto the canbus.
My CIC is retrofitted with a can bus emulator and I know this thing does not work with that inline but I'm wondering if there is a way to combine it, the same way as these vendors did
