I do think pictures would really help to be honest. A picture can say a thousand words if you get me.

Looks like you will be pulling the boot to bits again to take some photos!

Looks like I might have to unless I use my old one and make another. I'll see what I can do by the end of the week.
Gonna have a go at some drls next. Have you changed yours ?

That's too big it won't fit. The one you want is from HIDS4U, camera size 17mm x 22mm.
The part number is LSTC105PL
I've not connected it to my HU yet as I'm waiting for the interface so I'm not sure what the picture will be like. Seen some pictures of daytime use and looks good. Don't think it's really a night vision camera but has visibility upto 5m

 

[bigbadjay]

Thats the same product code.

5m is fine i suppose.

whats the interface for? Is it a screen or are you connecting it to a double din headunit?

 

[p11lkw]

There listing different sizes so I couldn't say if it would fit.
Rns 510 interface

Cheers awesome mod

Good mod indeed.

I've seen this done on an Exeo a year or so ago

 

[wjohnson]

That is just immense! But how did you get it so it doesnt actually open the boot everytime you go into reverse?

 

[Jarre]

I'll get a parts list sorted shortly.
There is a micro switch behind the badge, when its lifted I made sure it stops just before it makes contact so not to pop the boot. It still works manually as normal.

See above ^

Nice!!

Most parts are available on eBay the camera is from hids4u. The servo and some of the wiring also the rod eyes you can go to a model/radio control shop but also on eBay. Some bits I got from work like wires, rubber seals/grommets and small nuts n bolts.
Once you've drilled your holes and fitted everything you need the seals for the wires etc so water doesn't come in.
