I'm looking at 2 used Prius' a 2 and a 4. If i go with the two can I add a a back up camera, and what would it cost, approximately? Thanks!
It cost me ~$350 in parts and 2.5 hours labor to add a 2012 prius 2 bluetooth 6.1 touchscreen radio, microphone and backup camera to my 2011 prius 2. I used multiple used parts sources to get the parts at a reasonable cost (forum member, salvage yard and Ebay)
Just installed the Ottonavi Headunit with a backup camera today. Ottonavi and camera were just under $600. The camera wiring did not reach the HU so I had to zip into town for a RCA coupling and 3' cable. Also had to trim the blanking plate to "surround" the camera. I am a little anal so it took me nearly 8 hours to finish. All is working perfectly though.
My 2012 already pre-wire from hu to the hitch. I just need camera and 3ft wire(4wires), this all. But I heard one person who need to wire-up the driver kicker panel but I don't need.
IMKen, omg i'm trying to find a HU from a 2012 to install in my 2011. Could I ask which sites you were looking at? I'm having a hard time hunting these things down. pref one with a navi.
dumb question but has anyone thought of installing one for the front to help with heavy fog or snow? I've noticed that when backing up I can see much better in the rear cam in fog and snow that I can by just looking back.
Hi. Is there any options such as using a modified rearview mirror monitor? I would have like the trim 3 with nav and monitor but it was out of my price range. I although thought that having a small one on the mirror would be more convenient. I look up there anyway, even with the monitor on. I am not studying the surrounding for a place to land a mars probe after all. Just checking of kids trash cans and curbs. My main concerns are I don't want wires showing, and want it hardwired into the car, not plugged into the accessory plug. I don't really need the nav. My cellphone google maps are probably more up to date anyway. Thanks WW
