Question Evo IX Rear View Camera?

Has anyone fitted a rear view camera in a IX?

I fitted one in my old X, so got the same camera (eBay) now I have a IX, but the light fitting is different.
I was going to just fit it to the light plate bracket, but that's at an angle so the camera won't sit straight

Is there one that will fit a IX?

yes I've seen someone do theirs but they put the camera in the key-hole on the trunk.

The trunk keyhole is the only logical spot to me. (As a 12v installer myself) I always try to mount them higher up, aiming down so that you can see the bumper when you're backing up. That is, after all, the point in most cases. Since the license place is in the bumper itself, it doesn't make it very practical for the rear camera, and because of the design of the trunk/spoiler there's nowhere else higher up to mount one. If it's just for show though, then by all means do whatever you'd like.

Any other input or pics?

The one fitted to my X was a replacement number plate light one, and the position was fine.
