Backup Camera? How Much?
For those who have a backup camera in your 04-06 TL, how much did it cost and where did you go to get it done. I have a quote from a local company in Boston who wants to charge $1,368. Does that make sense?

Instead of Wendy's camera from ebay... I went with Sonic Electronics Universal License Plate Camera (Boyo Vision VTL100 $180). It has a great image and you can angle it the way you want with a provided Alen Key. I did it myself with a friend of mine and it went very smooth.
Good Luck... PM me if you want my friend to install it for you at a decent price. That's if you want to drive down to NYC for the day.
