Rearview Camera Installation South FL

I've been trying to find a place that will install a rearview camera to my 2009 C63 original COMAND screen like in other models. I saw the DIY using OEM parts, and also some that used aftermarket parts. I don't think I'm up for an electrical DIY like this in this car.

I wasn't able to find a place to install it in Miami, one installer I called said he doesn't work on Mercedes and others seem to have never done it on our cars. If you know a place (or person) that can help me in this area please let me know. I don't mind driving as far as Naples or WPB.
Any recommendation if to go with OEM or aftermarket parts?


Thanks

This is the link for the DIY:

I don't want to do electrical work on this car alone, also this is my first MB. I prefer to pay someone or a shop this time and learn from their experience.

No need to go OEM. If you look at my posts in the DIY thread, you can see the parts I bought and used. Camera still working perfectly two years later.

Yes, what I want is basically all harness, wires and other parts to be OEM, but the OEM camera is no necessarily the best so maybe aftermarket camera.

I'm in Doral area.

They seem to be specializing in MB and electronics, so maybe I'll head over there thanks!

Technicar FTW. Those guys are great- we've had guys send their cars from the MidWest to FL just to deal with them. Tell them Jo sent you and you want the Curry Goat discount.
