    After upgrading my OEM JBL radio to a Smarty Trend unit and getting the OEM rear camera connected, I felt the image looked a little old like 2010 old.

    So I found this plug and play upgrade that replaces your OEM rear camera.

    I found a promo code online and used that to save a little when I purchased it.

    MT54442026 that saved me 10%

    They are also on sale right now too.

    Toyota Prius (2010-2015), V (2012-2014), Plug in (2012-2015) OEM Repla – Master Tailgaters

    Installing the camera is not as easy as pluging it in to connect it.

    The white tabs that hold the camera in are a bit of a pain but it can be done.

    I will post some before and after pictures but I only have daytime before and after pictures.

    Here are the before and after pictures.

    Keep in mind that these pictures are taken from an old Note 4 phone in my hand and not directly off the display, which I may be able to do with a screenshot directly from the android unit.

    I can probably do that on a later date just to see. 20260304_125610.jpeg 20260304_140556.jpeg
