Tapped one wire from switch to 12v and other to the reverse wire on stereo, whenever i put car in reverse i flip that switch and VOILA there is backup camera. Then just flip it back whenever done backing up. I will try to post pictures of flip switch later. If anyone likes the way i tackled and have questions lemme know i will help.

I actually did this mod to my 370z Roadster a few years ago and it looks exactly like factory. The instructions and the kit was online at the time. I don't think they make it anymore. I think you had to piggy back off a reverse line but my camera works just like the 2011 and newer did. No toggle switch needed. The info needed is online somewhere.
