DrKevM5 has been able to replicate with success as well.

See my thread on this as it explains everything with the parts you need, parts you need to modify, etc.

Short version is: need the grille, need the updated back plate, and need some glue + a dremel tool.

Need to trim the tabs on the backplate so that the backplate secures it's self into the NV housing. Also need to modify the backplate (break off a few tabs) so that the NV camera can be glued onto the backplate. Once that is done you snap it all together, verify alignment, and install into the car.

I am typing this on my phone.. when I find the thread on my computer I will ping you from it. So just check your alerts for the link.
