Rear spoiler/backup camera question

New member and first time poster

In the process of buying a family members 2010 SH-awd when the lease is up in the near future. The car itself is WDP auto with the umber interior and NO tech! Yeah I know don't say it. I think it might be the most uncommon color trim combinations out there. Anyone have a SH-awd with no tech let alone white with umber interior with no tech but I digress. Anyway on to my question. The rear camera itself is located in the rear spoiler correct? Is it possible to add a factory rear spoiler with camera to a non tech car and have it function like oem? Before I get the just get one with the tech package. The lease buyout is really cost effective and I really like the rare color combination despite not having the tech package..

anything can be done with the right amount of money, but it would probably be better just to pick one up with the tech package from the factory, since there is no screen in the nontech you will have to add all of that to get it to look factory. prob will end up costing more than just getting one with tech from the get go.

Like I said in my original post a new or different car with tech isn't going to be an option for me. I was hoping there was a way to buy the spoiler with the backup camera and possibly use the rear view mirror or something like that for the screen.. I am open to ideas.

you can add the tech wing with camera.. just there is nothing to connect the camera to.. all you really do is just mount it in.. all the functions of that tech wing will not work with a non-tech car.. just so you know

I was hoping someone had tried something similar and had a way to add the spoiler with the backup camera along with a way to use the MID or maybe the review mirror as the monitor.
