The reverse camera automatically activates when you engage the reverse gear - the camera will display live feed directly onto the rear view mirror in the car, about 30% of the rear view mirror will be used to display the camera image (live). The camera is situated just above the rear license plate holder.

See pic below for better idea:

Difference in the trim - you can refer to the first page and see the FAQ by CyberKewl (me). Here's the common Q & A on it:

Q: Which trim/version of the forte is most worth it to buy?
A: The SX version is the most bang for buck, whether you're going for the 1.6 or 2.0 SX. If you can spare the cash for the road tax cost of the 2.0, go for it (approx < RM 400). The 1.6 SX has extra goodies such as reverse camera, paddle shifters (!!), stability control programmes such as EBD, CBC, BAS, TCS (the 1.6 EX only has ABS), 6 CD changer, Electric folding mirrors, Keyless entry & start/stop engine button, full auto aircond system, Front fog lamps. On the other hand the 2.0 SX has an improved Motor Driven Power Steering, Cruise Control, Leather seats, side & curtain airbags (and of course, a 2 Litre engine!). Ultimately if you're alright with the lower spec EX which does not have the full stability control programmes and on a tight budget, its still a steal compared to many other cars in the market.

Waiting period - no idea, you have to ask the Sales agent for that.
