Description
Give your ND an integrated rear view camera! These are especially useful on RFs, but we like them on all our cars. This is a full factory-style integration without the weird little bumper pimple that the 2019 cars got. Shift into reverse, and the screen on your dash changes to the camera view including side traffic alerts. Head forward and you're back to normal.
The distance indicators on the screen are more useful than some of the other aftermarket cameras out there. They range from 8" to 28" from the bumper, making it easy to back in perfectly. However, the vertical lines on the display are not quite as wide as the car actually is due to the low viewing position of the camera, so take extra care when backing into tight spaces.
This kit is fully compatible with Miatas equipped with Apple CarPlay. Not compatible with Sport models that do not have a screen for obvious reasons. Easy installation, it's plug and play other than one new hole you need to drill above the license plate. The kit even includes the right size hole saw.

The kit is pretty complete. It even includes a hole saw for the camera. The video support for this installation made it a breeze and it's nice to have the rear view when it's complete. FM is a great resource.
This is a nice addition to my recently acquired 2016 GT. At first it seems like a lot of work but it really is not bad at all. The video very nicely explains all the steps. I recommend it.
Works great! Good instructions. Makes driving safer.
The video was what sold me. Projects are so much easier when you can see it done and follow along. Especially when it comes to deconstructing the interior trim. I love my new backup camera.
I purchased this rearview camera and decided to tackle the job myself after watching the video that FM provided. It really is as straight forward as mentioned already. Install can be done within a couple hours moving at a slow pace and everything is provided for the install. My camera kept popping out a slight bit after going over bumps due to me (im assuming) not reaming out enough material from the bumper. So instead of disconnecting/removing and reaming the cam I reinforced it with some JB Weld plastic bonder and added a smooth finished seem around the setup. Works like a charm, also gives the extra feel of security. The cam will adjust from shade to bright sun automatically and has a few display options to play around with. Overall I think this is a very good deal if youre looking for a quality camera with easy installation.
