Assuming that a rear backup camera is even an option on that factory unit, It is a matter of finding a reverse signal (a +12V source when the car is in reverse). This can easily be found at either one of the reverse lights at the rear of the car.

That wire will need to be run to both the camera, as well as the head unit. You'll also be running a single RCA from the camera up to the head unit which will carry the video signal.

Its really not a comlicated process so long as your head unit is "rear camera ready"

About a year and half ago I installed an Eclipse BEC105 camera to my factory nav system. It was very easy to do. The wire runs from the camera to the rear of the radio. You simply plug the end into the radio and that's it. Nothing else to do. A very simple and worthwhile upgrade.
