Where there is a will, there is a way. I do think you can do that. Bypassing that pesky "you have to have the emergency brake on and the car in park" switch is a common routine at audio installation places. So I am told. Than ask Bigaudiofanatic. I think it might depend on the type of radio too. I have a Kenwood DNX-9960 in my unit and it was done on that. My brother has a Pioneer AVIC-110 and he also had it done.

I think so....
 

I did it myself.....although I don't have a Nismo. Do Nismo's have the little pop out square in the middle of the bumper?

I think the OEM one is a rip. $785? I bought a cool new head unit for about $285. I got a high quality camera for about $100. I bought some lead wire for about 5 bucks. I installed it all myself for free.

So for me it was a tiny screen in your mirror, a crappy performing/looking stock radio, and zero labor for $785. Or a good performing great looking radio & DVD player with a large screen and several hours of labor for $390. Saved me $395 for other stuff.

Your call.

It can be done. I've seen it on cars before. It can wired up to be on whenever you want it. Looks pretty cool when driving but it is a distraction.

I've never had a back up camera, I've never hit anything, parallel park 85% of the time no problem. I just know how to drive.

Has anyone ever tried mounting an aftermarket camera behind the rear fog light cover?

I ordered my red nismo back in November, the dealership just added it to the order. I never thought I would use it since my last three Zs didn't have one. I have found it quite handy. I'm glad I had it installed. I still have to look around still just to be safe. I do like it in the mirror instead it being installed in the radio like my wife's Juke.

:iagree:

I have the one in my mirror and I just ordered an Alpne HCE 200r camera for my HU. It sees 190 degrees. I like the split screen view to see the rear side views on mu HU and the rear view from my mirror display will allow me to see so much better and safer.

That's cool. I will have to look into that. Next purchase will be a better audio system.

There is also a HCE 300r to that has an audio/visual warning system as well
