Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Camera - on the parcel shelf, in the middle, at the base of the rear window? Or at the top of the rear window in the middle with the wiring under the headlining. Just a guess. ~ Maxie Migration info. Legacy thread was 134784
If you find that one out please let me know. Good luck. Migration info. Legacy thread was 134786

917k - you're right; drilling is the only way to go if you want it in the rear bumper. My suggestion was a non-drilling alternative with perhaps the camera (by the rear window) angled downwards so it would be able to view the rear part of the car. It's a little less messy and a completely reversible mod. ~ Maxie Migration info. Legacy thread was 135327
I'm considering mounting by the number plate in the recess, on the left side of the no plate as you look at the back of the car - the only concern is that that the camera wont be able to see around the recess (to its right side - which is where the bigegst blind spot is anyway - guess I'll have to blue tack it in place to see before any drilling is done. The other alternative is next to one of the parking sensors which are pretty huge and ugly to start with!! Migration info. Legacy thread was 135466
