The back-up lights run off the GAUGE fuse (literally the bulbs are powered by it, so that makes perfect sense why adding some extra load it and then turning on those bulbs makes the fuse pop).

I would check for a nicked wire or frayed end where you made your connections for both the back-up camera and the seat heater. You might have damaged a wire, while you were working in that tight space.
