beat-sonic has a great setup if you have the OEM NAV head unit.
easy install, took me less than 30 mins. |

Reverse cam takes almost no wiring knowledge to install...Just a little searching on body panels to remove and where to plug in the wires
I can help if you need but any futureshop or electronics install shop will do it...very simple

Really considering this because the rear defroster on this car sucks.
Lack of a rear wiper was a big oversight IMHO. |

Will the BeatSonic kit work on a Canadian spec BRZ? We have a Pioneer AVIC930 for our factory headunit

You need harness that does RCA our deck doesn't have it stock, had a shop in Burlington order from pioneer, and do install.

I know Auto Links does great work. I've had two of my cars tinted and clear bra-ed there, but never done anything electrical there. |

It was 250 for the unit and 100 for installation. It is compatible with the headunit all you need to get is the harness.

Is this do-able without the beatsonic harness? I am electronics savvy I guess. Isn't this harness $72? Seems steep to me, I'd rather do it myself if possible.

Autolinks suggested me to get it from ebay but I got the harness from amazon instead. Well the camera could be a bit better but I dont mind it cause it does its job. But autolinks did a good job on the install. Did not have a problem at all.

Ultra Auto Sound in Mississauga did mine. It was a clean install and have had no problems.
