I've just bought a brand-new 2011 Versa 1.8SL, equipped with the factory NAV unit. Does anyone know if this is already equipped to handle a backup camera - i.e. the wiring is already run to the rear of the car, or there is a connection on the NAV unit itsefl.

I've done a search on the forum, and also scoured the handbook, but cannot find anything that sheds light on this topic. Beginning to suspect this means extensive work if I want to add a camera :frown:

The factory nav doesn't come with the backup camera? Odd. I'm not familiar with the add-on packages for the versa. You may want to try posting this in the Versa section. And check the service manual which you can find here:

You certainly should be able to add it, but it if doesnt' currently exist on your ride, I'm guessing you'll have to run the wiring yourself. It's not a terribly difficult job, but it might take an hour or two...

I've moved this topic to the Versa General Chat forum, that way it'll give some of the Versa owners a chance to chime in and give you an answer as well :dblthumb:

Thanks, both of you. I'm brand new to the forum and thought that I had posted it to the Versa section - goes to show I still have a lot to learn!!
