Get a reverse camera installed at C1 Automotive in Oakleigh South.
Before quoting, we check whether your existing head unit has a video input, whether the factory system is compatible, and whether a screen upgrade would give a cleaner result. The right approach depends on the car — not every factory system is straightforward to integrate.
Includes the camera, wiring, installation labour and GST. The picture comes up on its own when you select reverse, with reversing guidelines on screen.
That is for a car that already has a screen. A camera needs one to show on, so with no screen it goes in with one, both with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto: a separate screen on the dash, $450 all up, which also records as a front and rear dash cam, or a new head unit, $600 all up on Japanese and Korean cars.
Fitting a camera at the same time as a CarPlay head unit keeps it to one visit — see CarPlay installation.
If we find anything outside this quote, we call you first and explain the cost. No additional work is carried out without your approval.
Reverse camera installation depends on the existing screen, head unit, wiring and what integration the car allows. Some cars can use a factory-style video input. Others need a replacement head unit or a dedicated monitor — or the cleanest result comes from pairing the camera with a compatible CarPlay screen upgrade.
C1 Automotive has been helping Melbourne drivers with practical car upgrades since 2018. Before quoting, we check the vehicle details so we can recommend a suitable option.
Parts we supply and our installation are covered by a one-year warranty. If you bring your own equipment, we cover the installation and the equipment stays under its maker's warranty. Your Australian Consumer Law rights continue to apply. Before handover, we test the reverse trigger and confirm the camera display is working correctly.
