this is not a knock against any previous installs, but i still think double-sided taping a $180 camera to the exterior of the car after wiring it through a notch made to the light housing is twice the effort and ten times the money for a less elegant solution. why not just buy a twenty dollar plug and play part (that's been tested with success) for a fifth of the price? if it fails, it can be replaced cheaply with no trouble (and without having to peel tape off car).
i'm kind of surprised anyone would point a customer toward such an expensive rear camera that tapes to the bumper when there are less expensive and more utilitarian alternatives out there.
if the driver places a high premium on clarity of rear camera picture or extensive head unit control over the camera, i can understand the kenwood, but otherwise the kenwood seems like a misuse of resources to me.
