Question Wiring diagram/color coding?

Am going to add a rear view camera and need to splice into the backup tail lights hot wire. Anyone know what the wire color coding is or where I can get a wiring diagram for the car?

Thanks,

Thank you!
Looks different than other wiring diagrams I have seen, but if I'm reading this right, for my 2012 Cabriolet I want to look for the black/violet wire to the reverse bulb to tap into? The brown one looks like it is going to ground/chassis? What do you think?

Thanks,

Similar issue on 2012 Coupe

I’ve tied in using the black w/purple but looks like it’s a constant?! I’m wiring in a dash cam with reverse cam. Does anyone know which wire I can use that’s powered only in reverse? I can use rear lights wiring harness or can tie into either bundle running inside the cab along the rear panel.
