05 nali, look in my other threads on our camera...the TC button just pops out of that plastic piece, leaving a nice square box. wires are perfect length to reroute to the glove box and just double stick tape the button into that section of the glove box on the left thats divided. cubbycam's website has the picture. here i googled it for you to save some time

and if u want specifics on my camera install, look for my newbie here thread where i posted all of our mods. i used an ebay camera on mine and total cost was like 50 bucks for camera and monitor.

thanks, i have since moved my tc toggle there to add a cubby hole instead of the plastic there. So now i just need to find a monitor that will fit in there nice and snug and look decent. I am ready to pull the trigger on this finally and just need to find a monitor

Great write up. One question. Did you just wire the camera and the monitor to the same place? I couldn't really tell. If so does the camera come on when you unlock the doors and the reverse lights come on? How did you get around this? if at all?

For those that have installed these. how do they perform at night and do they have the depth lines that i have seen on some of the other options?

got mine installed yesterday just like how the OP did it. Working great so far, there was barely enough wire to get to the front. I actually had to reroute it to get it to stretch and then it was still barely enough.

Where'd you route it?
