Default Labor $ ("Book Time") to Replace Front Camera?

2010 LX570.

Front Camera Lens is cracked and wife wants it replaced.

Found a part from a wrecker for ~$350.

Anybody know the labor time charges to replace it?

Anybody done it and can tell me easy, hard, or medium?

Thanks!
JCC

I cannot understand why this low resolution crap costs more than $20... Terrible.

It is very easy. I think there is like two small screws that hold it in from behind and one wire harness to unclip. Just remove the front plastic cover that covers the front of the engine bay/radiator so you can see behind the grill and its pretty straight forward. Should not take more than a 10 minutes.

This should be a DIY job. If you can change a lightbulb then you should be able to do this.

Totally agree, I don’t think we need to take the bunker off either.

X2. Should be EASY to do.

I don't think the part (camera) is "married" to the ECU, so should be plug and play.

$350 is a lot for that low res camera. But it is what it is.
