How to replace reversing camera

[MSM]

I have a 2007 ANH10 with head unit changed to a Pioneer SPH-DA360DAB. However the reverse camera picture isn’t great, especially at night when it looks possibly like small scratches are scattering light from the reverse light to make it really hard to see. I’m assuming that the camera is the original unit, located just above the licence plate. The picture quality isn’t great during the day resolution/clarity-wise.
 

Is it possible to just replace the camera unit with a new one without changing the wiring?

If so, any recommendations for replacement camera models?

 

Advice on how to get to the camera to remove it would be appreciated?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi, did you get any more infomeration on this?

 

I am also keen to know about the reversing camera and replacement options.

Unfortunately, I didn’t get any further with this.

Mine seems to be in permanent zoomed in mode so not really handy for getting an idea of where things are, so I could well be looking at this soon.

 

I would start by taking the boot lid liner off and looking at the connections, which I am assuming there are - it could be a single fixed lead that goes all the way to the head unit.

Take a picture of the connector for reference and then dismount the camera and take a picture of that also. 

If it's the original part then amayama.com would help in finding the correct part number for an original replacement, or if it isn't original you should now have what you need to find a matching or suitable alternative.
