Default Which wire is the stock backup Camera

Hi y'all, I am looking to connect my stock backup camera to a new pioneer NEX radio. I believe all I need to do is splice into the existing wires that run from the backup camera to the rearview mirror. I recall seeing a post where someone pointed out these specific wires in the driver's side kick plate area, but I cannot seem to find that thread with the picture. Can anyone help me out with a photo or at least tell me what color wires I'm looking for? I think it is just a single pair.

Thanks in advance.

The vehicle is a 2013 SCREW XLT.

All set now. Thanks for the guidance. Here are the results. I left the mirror connected, which is good because it pops on a little bit faster than the head unit.

THANKS AGAIN

Nice, that's my plan as well, to leave the rear view connected until I see how fast my head unit links. This is the system I installed just haven't had the weather right to get down in there to run the wires.



Tomorrow may be the day as the humidity is down, and the temp is tolerable. It's been a miserably hot summer here.
