    Hey guys, I decided to buy a Gentex Rearview Camera Display Mirror 50-GENK352. I was wondering if you guys can provide me any tips on installing the unit? I will have my mechanic install this and hes done plenty of work with moding cars. I'm just not sure if he ever worked on a prius. I am told that he will have to disconnect the battery but he always does this for every conventional car. Is there a safe way of disconnecting the battery without damaging my car? What should I warn him about the Prius so he won't damage it? (I have a gen 3 Prius II) Anyone have a installation guide?
