Thanks for the tips Kaotic! I will definitely do lots of research before I decide what to purchase. There's a couple good threads from people here who've installed backup cameras and consensus says a dry cleaner's coat hanger works well for getting the camera wire through the liftback but it can be challenging. I wonder if that's what the professionals like the Geek Squad use, or perhaps they have specialized tools that make it easier.

That is for the third series Yaris, which has the licence plate on the hatch. There is a cutout with a plastic cover on that model that is the mounting point for the factory camera in some countries. On a 2007 model, you probably want to mount a reversing camera in the rear bumper.

I fitted a reversing camera because my wife wanted it. It's now standard equipment on the new Yarii here in Australia.
