At least you don't have to drill a hole in the tailgate on the v60!

Regarding the camera kit you linked to earlier :- Without fitting a genuine one from volvo wasn't much difference in cost from FRF back in November.

If your car has the Sensus Connect head (globe button on centre console) with 7" screen you can get front and rear cams fully fitted for £475

Looking into this myself, as mentioned in an earlier thread the volvo accessories site shows the difference packages depending on factory equipment level, such as BLIS, Rear accessory prep (820 or 802 factory code from memory). I've left a message with my local Volvo to check my vin to see what factory codes it has, from that it should be easy to see what kit it needs.
The kit ranges from many many parts to pretty much just the camera (both need dealer software loaded).
Let us know how you get on

Have a look here...

Rear camera kit £270 for Sensus Connect system. Even if you pay a local auto-electrician to install it for say £150-£200 labour it'll still work out cheaper than just buying the parts from the dealer.

@Wheelnut, me and others have installed this kit and it's pretty much factory look and feel.
