1) Opened the whole center console and Navi

2) Enabled video input on AUX while in motion (you can find a DIY on g35nyc)

3) Put a wire: starting from the connection in the console box to the VIDEO IN (and made a switch on/off, so I still could use some external video player) and ending at the nose of the car

4) Installed camera in the mt. Fuji logo at first, then moved it to the bottom mesh (on the last pic) and connected it to the wire

That's all folks! This was done by my friend-electrician and I have no photos of the process.

Great idea! I plan to do it with my side camera. The main problem will be the splicing wires, via switch "side/front", from front camera to OEM side camera wire. The aim is using OEM button to activate front camera.

Just bought the OEM front camera kit with wiring and control unit (F20A0-89935, F20A4-899902). Feature of this system is that there is a button that can switch between the sides, or direct vision. very useful when crossing the road.

the dealer will install by following the enclosed instructions. but ask him to take a picture of the most important moments. in fact, there is nothing complicated, the fact that the dealer has experience installing a camera on the JDM Fuga

the installer does not photographed the installation process(
I could upload pictures of instructions, but it is in Japanese.
According to the manual, this kit can be installed only on the V36, CKV36, Y50.

I'm a little disappointed - the camera takes only the sides.
Thinking to replace the camera itself, to shoot forward.
Sorry for the quality of photos.
