[ercdvs]

I have a 2010 yaris liftack and this interests me too, but i cant see any existing plstic cut out / spot where the camera would go on my hatch.

is this just a euopean thing for 2010 ?

I'm not sure of the model changeover years - we go by build date here in Australia. My hatchback was built in February 2012. I guess that makes it a 2013 model in the USA. This has a removable panel a few inched to the left of the hatch release (near where the lock would be if fitted) under the lip of the trim piece. The number plate is on the hatch, not in the rear bumper like the earlier model.

Sorry if this caused any confusion.

I'm actually working on installing a back-up camera in my 2009 liftback. I have all the pieces I need, now it's just a matter of installing it.

How I'm doing it is by replacing the licence plate light with a special aftermarket bracket that has a back-up camera built into it. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/121697810323...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT)

...and wiring it to an aftermarket head-unit I previously installed. If you want to keep your head-unit though, you can order a rear-view mirror with a built in LCD monitor to replace the original mirror, to have a more factory look. (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Auto-Turn-On...NSaS2v&vxp=mtr)
