OEM is a factory option only, anything the dealer installs will be aftermarket.

rleggs - why not get the OEM camera mount for the second gen IS and then rig up a camera in there to a screen in the cabin?

just a suggestion to save you from drilling out your rear bumper with a somewhat unknown end result.
