thanks mate thats a big help ![facepalm][doh]
cheers dude looks good, there are cheaper ones similar tho on the bay
ive got the second one listed! round camera fitted to mine! and does me just fine! mines mounted in back window! depends where your going to mount camera your propbably best to get the square looking one and mount that,if u dont want to do no drilling of body parts! the other one u will have to drill back bumper
the back bumper is being removed repaired resprayed and replaced so not to worried bout drilling.

is it colour? does it work ok at night?
you are doing the same as me.... i picked up a really good one off ebay. just got to fit it with the reverse sensors... all jobs for this week i hope. i can get you a pic of it , it replaces the number plate light.
