This seems hella complex, but I like that it all hooks into the iMid. How complicated is it?

Not that complicated just time consuming. Can be broken into steps though.
1. Order all parts
2. Put camera together and wires
3. Install camera
4. Run your wires from trunk to dash
5. Connect to Imid
it looks more complicated then it really is, once you get everything together and get started, it's simple

7. Take apart dash and secure wires very well so there is no more rattle.

No, seriously. I have a faint rattle. Can't really hear it much, only on rough roads at medium speeds. I knew I should have secured those new wires better. Oh, well. An easy 45 min. job.maybeeee

Took apart the dash again and fixed the rattle. I put small pieces of sponge under all the new wiring. Quiet as a graveyard now. 40 minute job from start to finish.

Talk to Honda corp. They have design teams for different regions. The exterior is different.

So this definitely doesn't work for an SI with nav?

No, there is no definitive answer out yet if it will work or not if I understand correctly.. @ADExternal is willing to try and verify if Navi SIs would hook up the dame way to Imid. He was asking for someone with Navi to pictures of the Imid harness with lots of different angles so he can compare the two.
There is a thread about this here. http://9thcivic.com/forum/threads/2013-rearview-camera-a-first-look.6098/

Nobody with a Navi wants to take their dash apart and check the Imid harness. That would be funny if it was the same pins.

Just drive fast instead of medium on the rough roads. That should take care of it.
