Backup camera installation

[JoeP]

Has anyone installed a backup camera on their 1.5? If so, which camera would be best? What's a good place in LA to do it?

I posted a thread earlier about adding a backup camera to a 2.0. Should be very similar. I had major help from my Tesla Ranger on the installation.

There is a current conversation about a camera being hidden in a new carbon fiber wing here.

I had one installed. Sits next to the license plate light. Part of the installation of a Kenwood pop out 7" LCD receiver replacement with Garmin GPS, Sirius Sat, and iPhone dock (that actually charges unlike the stock one). Love it.

Just for clarity Dave, which Kenwood model number?

You'll need to shorten the right steering wheel stalk by about a half inch. Otherwise the screen will hit it when it slides out and in.

Speaking of cameras, I just had my front camera mounted on number 1204. It aims left so I can see out of my driveway onto our very busy street past the parked cars. I'll get the Sport Thursday... I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl. Or something.
