Thanks to whoever that recommended the $18 rear looking camera

I installed it today, very easy to put in, but hard to run the wires without cutting anything. Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Mine came within two or three weeks. I just got the urge to put it together even though I have no TV/any means to view the video yet.

How are you planning on connecting/viewing the camera? Are you planning on an after market head unit or additional screen?

If you have a US2010 or later you could use one of my plug and play harnesses
Backup Camera Kit (Harness Only) - Car Kit Company and get the factory like performance with activation of reverse and gridlines that move with the steering wheel.

Please post up the info on this camera, it seems like there's big interest in it, and a few of us would like to maybe buy it too.
thanks

The rear cameras (whether $18 or $150 kenwood) are just a video source. My question was about viewing and switch the camera on and was in response to:

There are a few options for displaying:
  • Displaying via a replacement head unit which has a video input for backup camera
  • Additional screen
  • Plugging in to Aux Video-in available on some 370z

The US2010/11 370z cars have the newer Nav system which has the software to support the reversing camera with the gridlines, but the cars don't have the required wiring. The harness that I created fixes that problem. Once installed you have somewhere to connect the rear camera and the result is a factory like system where there rear camera will automatically appear when engaging reverse and you will have the gridlines that move with the steering wheel.
