Hey Piggy,
Would you post some info in regards to this like.
1. Pictures of how to
2. Type you used
3. Cost
4. Finished product , ect
I have seen the one on Lcool but that looks like a lot of work and panels to remove. Is yours the same or done with more ease.

[Guest Close Guest]

Exactly the same and was pretty easy, the one on cool did look difficult but in reality it wasnt.
Same principle was followed.
I didnt take pics as I did this one (time constraints) and sadly dont think I will be pulling it apart for a few more months to do some other stuff, but will take some then.

Have been told that you can run wires from behind dash up through roof lining which i guess in theory could make it easier.
What are your thoughts?

[Guest Close Guest]

Roof lining would be harder, it is easy as to go thru the side door scuff plates, trust me, go that way.

Yep i think you are right had a look and don't think that would be a good idea.

I ended up ordering a camera from the US. Worked out considerably cheaper than anywhere I could get it here in Aust.! If anyone needs a contact for them.. just pm me.

Cheers..

Camera arrived today. Great solid little camera. Actually I'm impressed with everything about the eclipse kit. I didn't realise they were a metal casing.!
Definate quality here, I see now why they charge what they do. And I'm sure its smaller than some of the others I've seen around on the Grande's.
Will be saturdays project, but already I can recommend this camera.
It is the Eclipse BEC-106. pm me if you want to know where to get it for a good price.

I think from memory mine was only about $215 from Freeways in Vic or was it NSW !

Someone here bought one recently from them after asking me where to go. (I love telling people where to go :roll: )

[Guest Close Guest]

I just checked the price I paid and I was wrong above, I only paid $210 inc Postage! 8)

That is cheap. :evil:
I emailed Freeways after you give me their name last week, they quoted me $330 and they reckoned I might need an adapter to suit my sat nav which was another $35.
Maybe they take turn about as to who they give a good deal to.!! I get that sometimes.. :lol: Maybe I should've "told em where to go" 8)

I might add a couple of places I rang here in Perth wanted $400. Is yours the BEC-106 or the BEC-105.?

[Guest Close Guest]

BEC-106 and I think they may do retail & trade pricing there. I know I got trade.
No adaptor is needed, you actually end up throwing bits of it away that you take off.

Ahh you've got me curious now.. I might drop them another email to see what they would do on trade. I could've arranged it on trade if needed. It's handy having a mate thats a mechanic. 8)
