Hello,
I have a factory HU wit hthe jbl 7006 nav unit. Is there a backup cam that i can install that plugs into that HU? Several OLD OLD posts say the eclipse cam which is now discontinued from every site I see, plus it didnt get good reviews. Anyone else have a suggestion...I am not going to install an aftermarket HU or Nav unit I like my factory stuff. Just need a backup cam

When I had to replace my old Eclipse camera, I ended up going with a Boyo aftermarket license plate frame camera like this one:
VTL405HD / VTL425HD // Vision Tech America, Inc. (http://visiontechamerica.com/site/portfolio/vtl405hd-vtl425hd/)

More of a stealth install than the Eclipse unit.
There is one caveat when using an aftermarket camera with the Eclipse/Fujitsu Ten head units. These units supply 6 volt DC to their backup cameras while most aftermarket cameras us 12 volt.
You can purchase the 4-pin adapter that will fit the Eclipse/Fujitsu Ten (Toyota) units here:
Eclipse UC100 Rear-view camera adapter for AVN-Series receivers (http://www.soundoftristate.com/uc100)

You will just have to supply a 12 volt lead to the new camera from a switched source like your radio power wire.

That should be all you need to get your backup on!
