I don't know if it is possible in a 2001 without going aftermarket. A good search around may help you. If you could do it OEM it'd be with a command unit, but not one from our cars, another one. I don't know, for the pre-facelift, which one fits. Welcome to the forum, and get familiar with the search button before you get STFFed!

Im guessing you bought one of the license plate frames with the camera already built into it? I am considering adding this to my head unit but I just dont like the look of camera on the license plate frame.

I wanna do this too. Ed can you post a pic of how your camera looks mounted on the back.

Anyone have recommendations of cameras, or are they all pretty much the same?
