Default Backup camera wiring help needed

I purchased a backup camera from a C7 that I'm going to install in my C6, the problem I have is, I need to know what wires to use, the plug has 6 wires in it: yellow, white, red, brown and (2)black. Does anyone have a wiring schematic or know the pin out on the plug? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm guessing it only uses 3 or 4 of the wires for power and video??

Any chance someone could get me a picture of the pigtail that this plugs into? I think the color of the wires are different on the other side of the connector, I paid for GM's service manuals for 3 days but the colors listed are not the colors on the camera itself.... Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

I'm in the same boat - not knowing what leads do what. Odd, that none of them are shielded which would be for the camera.

i have the same camera, but like an idiot cut the cable about 6-8inches from the pigtail. Now I only see 4 wires. Red, white, yellow, and 1 black.
