5th & 6th Generation (2002-2006 & 2007-2011)Toyota Camry Discussion for years: 2002-2006 & 2007-2011
Topics of discussion range from fuel economy, safety, modifications, performance all involving America's favorite family car, the Toyota Camry.
I wanted to add the homelink garage door opener to my '08 LE Camry. I went to Beechmont Toyota, and, as is usually the case with them, rather than looking, they just told me that has to be factory installed, and is available only on the XLE.
It seems to me that is should be a plug and play installation, since it is, after all, just a garage door opener.
Does anyone know for sure?

$180 will get you a Home Link, autodimming, compass rear view mirror from ebay - I don't have the link to hand at work unfortunately.
Not plug and play, but relatively simple to install, even I managed it!

I was wondering the same thing. I see the overhead consoles with homelink on ebay often, and was wondering if this would just plug in inplace of my existing overhead console? (I have a moonroof on my LE)
the homelink comes standard on XLE and is an option on SE
however, a sstated abouve the homelink/auto dimming mirrors can be purchased off ebay, and are an easy add on
Even though I'm not the one who started this thread, this is something that has my interest as well. I am not wanting an autodim mirror, and am curious if anyone has added on their own the overhead console with homelink and can confirm or deny whether or not the existing harness plugs into the console with homelink.
I just checked the manuals and the wiring harness for the personal light pod/sunglass holder are the same wheather you have a sunroof or not. The homelink option only requires power and ground. Therefore, you can install any of the different overhead consoles and just plug it into the existing plug.
The HomeLink in my car isn't working properly. It refuses both the signals from my home garage and cottage garage. I complained to the dealer and they refused to even try to program it.
Therefore, I declare this feature to be useless.
