Added a cheap, yet suprisingly good reversing camera.
Got it off eBay for £18 (that's like $25?)

It replaces one of the numberplate light housings, with the cam moulded into it


Fed the cables for video feed and power through the grommet in the centre of the trunk


Took the live off the reversing light


Grounded at the main grounding point


A voila, all done

This is my first time seeing this thread. It's nice to see how long this has been going on, if I were to start a build thread it would have consisted of buying parts then taking them off...basically a bunch of trial and error. Ultimately, I've come to realize that less is more IMO and Nissan put together a pretty nice package out of the box. Nice work thus far OP and good luck with your future mods!

Finally got around to doing a bumper swap on my Zed.

From OEM UK...


...to OEM JDM


I have always disliked the ugly front numberplate holder the UK models have.
Really wish we could run plateless like some of you guys in the US :S
And furthermore to achieve a "cleaner" look, the front grille is now meshed
