A light fixture for a vehicle includes a light housing for installation on the vehicle that has one part of a two-part mechanical coupling. A power input connects a lamp and electrical coupling in the light housing to a power source. A dummy fitting, with the other part of the two-part mechanical coupling, is mechanically connected by the other part to the light housing so as to be removeable from the light housing to expose the electrical coupling for the retrofitting of a camera that also has the other part of the two-part mechanical coupling and a complementary connector for engaging the electrical coupling. Also disclosed is a camera for retrofitting to the light fixture after removal of the dummy fitting.
