I put an effin dimple in my effin hood cowl.
Seriously, is there a DIY remedy to this (BESIDES covering it up, or paying the dealership to pop it out?) I'm fully aware of those choices and don't want to take part in either one.

Parts I needed were:
Backup camera. Lots to choose from, I went with this one: http://www.amazon.com/EC170-07-Defin...+backup+camera
I got a heavy duty video cable too: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ilpage_o01_s00
Also need this to connect the video cable to the 430N: Amazon.com: PAC CHYRVD Rear Video Retention Cable For Select Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep Vehicles 2008-2012: Car Electronics
I ended up attaching it to the AEV CHMSL plate, which was like $60.
Install was easy. I installed the power to the passenger backup light, so the camera gets power when in reverse. I ran the video cable all the way to the front, and used the PAC CHYRVD adapter to plug into the 430N. I had to get the Jeep updated at the dealership, they apparently need to update something within the JK to know it has a backup camera. Some people get this free, some pay one hour labor. I know people at the dealer, so I was only charged $50.
Here is a thread where I learned how to do it: https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-e...camera-295039/
