Replacing front camera

Is this easy to replace? I think the lens got chipped on one of my highway trips. Any help will be appreciated

It appears to be simple plug and play with a few retainer clips. Looks like the part is about $250.

You will need to take off the front bumper, to change the front camera. Not to difficult, and if you need those instruction, let me know.

The hard thing is that you will need to do the aiming procedure after you install the new camera, at least that is what the directions say......That is a difficult thing to do, but I can post it if you want.

Thank you for this information. Can you post the bumper removal and camera aiming instructions too. I will try to tackle this on my own. I am sure the dealership will charge some obscene number of hours for this.

Remember you might need to take it to the dealer for the aiming of the camera system.

Here you go, and let me know if you need anything else.
