Default Reverse light wire?

I am attempting to install a backup camera. I need to tap into the reverse light wire. Can anyone please tell me what color that wire is? Also, I need to ground a second wire..is that black or do you recommend grounding elsewhere? Thank you

The reverse light wire is green with a black stripe. Black is the color of the ground around rear light area, but if were me, I'd choose any convenient metal area and loosen a screw or bolt and attach the ground wire there. good luck!

Hi I'm trying to find the reverse light wire. I am setting up a autovox wireless camera but its not working when I connected it to the green with a black stripe.. Not sure if its the connectors that came with the kit or if it's the wrong wire. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!
