I have a 2011 c350 with MM but no backup Camera.
I have read the DIY guides on installing a backup camera on the C-Class. I was wondering if anyone in Seattle area have done this DIY or can recommend someone to do it for a fee?
I suck at these things and will most likely ruin my car on attempt

Thanks for the reply blue00r6, maybe you could help me if I ever drive down for some tax free shopping.
I am curious, did you have to drill any holes in the drunk to get your camera mounted?

Just a small hole on the black plastic piece on the trunk lid to feed the camera cable in.

As chewy said, just in the plastic piece for the camera to recess into. it really isnt that bad of an install, the only pain in the *** is running the wires from front to back, other than that, its pretty straight forward. Originally Posted by gizmo99
