Painting the backup camera
Has anyone painted the body of one of these backup cameras?
I am thinking that it wouldn't be so difficult for me to mask the camera hole and get a rough match to SWP and make this camera look less visible. Opinions? anyone done this? Thanks! |

Just installed the Duo today, took about 2hrs thanks to this great guide! Only hiccup was the green grid line wire on the camera was ripped out when going through the trunk grommet, so have the 2 grids right now. Will install some new wire later this week to complete the circuit.

Damn--photobucket is not showing the pictures at this time. Should have printed off the guide before I needed it.
Can they be hosted somewhere else? Or does someone else have a PDF or something of the OP's original guide? -Z |

LMK how your install goes! I'm curious as to whether the install is the same on CDN 2014 models. I don't know if the wires will be the same considering it's a new head unit inside (Subaru, not Pioneer). When you're done, please help us CDN brz owners out and let us know what wires are needed!

I'm trying to do the exact same thing (no drill, rydeen miny with bracket). Do you have any pictures? Since you also have a limited, I'm wondering if the miny gets in the way of the trunk release?

Unfortunately the camera does kinda get in the way but I just got used to pushing the button off the side of the camera.
I also don't have pictures cause I've never really been much of a camera person. It tends to slow down my install and distract me. For the grommet, you will need to have a small and sharp item to cut the center of the grommet. I used a small snap-on flat head you get free from the snap-on tool-man to "cut" it. The grommet has 2 small holes that the trunk release wire goes through it. I cut the wall between the holes to turn the 2 holes into 1 large hole to thread through the camera wires through. After threading the camera wire through, I sealed with with some silicon sealants. |

BRZ Limited Backup Camera Step by Step (WARNING long post, many pictures)
Great guide. I have a couple observations/tips:
Quote:
* First, I remove the panel piece above the glove compartment by just pushing up on the bottom left corner with my thumb. * The head unit trim could then be pulled out starting at the open edge. Quote:
Not necessary to remove the light sockets. Quote:
