I had a nice dashcam I paid $175 for that had a plastic lens that fogged up a little over a year after I bought it. For the price I expected better.
I replaced it with one that advertised a glass lens and after a year it's still crystal clear.

I am a bit lost with the camera connection. Once I install the camera, I should cut the reverse light wires in the back of the trunk and add camera power in parallel, correct?
Where do you actually plug the yellow video cable in?

I installed a camera on my 94 ES. I tapped the camera power line into the positive line of the reverse lights. That way the camera turns on automatically when I shift into reverse. Seems to work well this way.

I am doing the same upgrade and no camera. Power source I used was off the trunk reverse light. The adapter (off eBay) only plugged into one spot on the back of the nav unit. I am rechecking the power tie-in connection for camera. Question: do you happen to remember which wire you tied in for power and what type of tie-in connection did you use. Many thanks.
