OK guys I've been working on getting the stock backup camera or look in my 2007 G35 and just want to give you guys an update of where I am at and get some thoughts on how it looks. I bought the trunk lip with cam slot for 50.00 on ebay and I finally found a cam that fits just about right and has the backup guide lines. I mounted it today and ran the wire into the trunk along the factory wire harness. I will be doing the wiring and running the cam wire to the center console or may tie into the av wire this weekened but here is what it looks like so far, let me know what you guys think, thanks

 

looks good so far!

 

Hey good stuff! which camera did you end up buying?

 

Does it still have the guided lines when you reverse?

 

^ ya he said the camera has guide lines, and good job on the install HQ pics would help but looks near OEM. good job!

 

nice work SMOOTHDLR! how are you putting it into the screen? will you just use the aux inputs in the armrest?

 

OMG i need to learn to read more.

 

Great job!

 

I'll try to take some better picture today, the pictures I posted were taken last night. I will also take pictures of what the camera looks like when it's backed up.

 

in for final pics!

 

nice great work

 

looking forward to this!

 

Sorry, but I would be shocked if the factory guides work with this installation.

I've looked at an 07 without factory back-up cam and it was missing the camera control module in the trunk and the steering angle sensor in the steering column. I didn't even bother checking the harness after that.

Looking forward to be proven wrong on this though!

 

The backup camera I am installing actually has a control module that adds the reverse lines, I should be done with the install today and will have pictures tonight or tomorrow.

 

I got the backup camera installed today and here are the final pictures. I haven't been able to adjust the guide lines yet but I think the default lines are okay. Let me know if there are any questions.
