When I got my 97 LSC back in November, it looked great! Almost EVERYTHING I wanted.....except.

It had the stock stereo and while it does have the integrated phone, we all know those don't work (even if I had the handset) because it's analog (banned new activations since 2005).

So what to do? I needed three things. iPhone connectivity via bluetooth for both phone use and streaming. Needed a hands free microphone, since I can't use the factory one. And I also needed a backup camera. My driveway is a bit tight on space and being able to see around corners has it's advantages.

So here was my solution:

It works great! Everything I need, and nothing I don't. The backup camera is mounted just above the rear plate under the lip.

Guess I can sell that stock unit and maybe even the 10 disc cd changer in the trunk?

BTW...the install, was done by Car Toys in Frisco, TX. They did a great job making it look and sound perfect!
