Boot lid
Boot lid
All the other bits like locks, lights ets are easy enough.
OH is there anything to gain by re-locating the reverse camera to the lock?? rather than where most people have installed them - next to the number plate lights.

You may not get the correct angle to cover both left/right extremes of the bumper or a good downward angle..
I looked into this but it looked to me that if the boot release in the car/remote decided not to work then you wouldnt have a manual/key release..
worth experimenting if you have the time..

you could put the camera in the boot lock however..

Any idea how the wiring loom comes away?

i think you have to remove the whole loom off the boot itself iirc
