I removed my spoiler that had the camera on it to install the GT500 spoiler, I replaced the camera with the following one below. I went with it because of the small pigtail which makes it easier to route into the trunk area.

Image is pretty good on it, the only draw back is it does not have the assist lines or what ever they are called.

The one thing you may run into is the wiring harness. Since your car didn't have a backup camera, you may need to run all the wires to the dash. Mine was easy since I all ready had the harness in the trunk, just needed to purchase the plug and wire it up.

Also, see DeeJayTJ link below. Some good info here you may need.

Initially I went with one of the license plate units which is very discrete. But then I bought an OEM camera spoiler instead. There are some pretty good how-to's out there if you search.
