Where is the factory back up camera located?

I want to install a back up camera on my wifes H3 Alpha I have been offered to buy a factory camera to hook up to the stereo and wonder where it is originally mounted.

H3T: Middle of the rear bumper just above the trailer receiver. I don't know if the factory camera will mate with an aftermarket headunit.

The factory (OEM) camera was mounted in a hole in the bumper to the left of the trailer hitch. There is a unique part number for a replacement bumper that has a camera hole punched in it.

Thanks for the picture I Was trying to figure out how it is supposed to be mounted just by looking at a picture of the camera itself.
