Any suggestions for a good reverse camera to hook up to the navigation screen?

After driving a Kluger for the last 3 years I've become pretty dependent on reverse camera. My parking of my Euro is shockingly wonky. Is there any camera that's a good fit for the 2006 Euro Navi? I notice this one on ebay is from 2008-2012 Euro but I didn't realize they were any different to the 2006 Euro Navi.

Plan is to also buy a xcarlink multimedia box to connect to to the navigation screen.

Alternatively just get a generic little camera?

Ok I found the answer to my question. I need to get an Acura TSX number plate camera like this.

do I need the NTSC or the PAL version?

I ordered a PAL version as I assume the navi monitor can handle both NTSC and PAL. PAL should be better as it has more lines.

I covered a bit of this here:

make sure your multimedia box supports RGBs ;)

I am intending to get the xcarlink one

However I'm still not 100% sure if the navigation screen takes PAL. I assume so though.
