Review on ๐Ÿ“ธ Enhanced PYvideo Backup Camera Kit for Toyota Camry SE and XLE (2012-2014) with Factory Radio (Color: Chrome) by Timothy Bobbert

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Fantastic addition to the car.

Does what it says on the tin: adding a reversing camera to the Camry SE. I bought this for my mom who has a 2012 Camry SE. Exciting to start the car and this reversing camera works without any problems. Excellent sharp image with useful distance markers overlaid on color image. Installation took much longer than others have described, around 5 hours over two days, although in the past I had removed some of the car's interior trim and soundproofing and audio installation. I took my time because I wanted to make sure nothing was messed up or broken in their car! Removing the dashboard panels went well, although it took some effort. Removing the decklid trim and metal studs and then restoring them took quite a bit of time and abuse. The best description of which metal nuts/bolts on the trunk lid need to be removed and which don't! One of my big mistakes was dropping one of them when trying to reinstall it, which meant it fell between two metal trunk panels in a corner I couldn't reach. Pulling back was quite awkward. Perhaps a magnetic strip during installation would have made things easier (about $7 here or at your nearest discount store). Once installed, it's a fantastic thing.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Expensive
