Default What backup camera fits in the trunk's key hole?

Anyone who's installed a backup camera in their trunk's key hole, what camera did you use? Is any part of the picture cut off (b/c the camera lens is larger than the key hole)?

Thanks,
Mark

I used the camera that came with my Pioneer AVIC Z2. Just used some plumbers strap to hold it in. I can see a surround of chrome from the emblem around the cameras picture because of the fisheye lens. Works great.

I used a generic one off of Amazon. It was 14 bucks and is the kind that hooks to the license plate frame. I removed the camera from the frame and mounted it with double sided tape behind the keyhole. You can see the surrounding edges because of the fish eye lens it has.

double sided tape will not hold for long if you open/close your trunk very often.
