out of the OEM lock hole but the IR Leds
wont have enough room to shine thru.
This might be a problem with too much
IR illumination around the lock hole and
it interfering with the camera image sensor.
The 92 degree field of vision will require
a clear 90 degrees of vision from the lens
out.
Tacos install, pics lost due to forum upgrade

In your ?tag?
Do you mean ditching the $39 eBay camera thats too big and get
one of those cams that are built into the licence plate frame?
