Hell, I have a hard time simply switching out stereos. Such is the reason I went the cheap route and just got a tape adapter. :P
I'd be terrified to work on my brakes. Do you have a favorite mechanic? Get a quote from him/her first. I was looking at a vacuum boost gauge at Kragen Auto Parts for $25 today because my cheapy $14 JC-Whitney vacuum gauge might be no good.

From what I have read (see Johnny Mullet's thread), you just need to tap into a vacuum line in your Camry.

In terms of the Vacuum Gauge, I think you would need to find a "Toyota Camry Fan" forum to find out who has done your car. It doesn't even need to be a Camry. It just needs to be a post where a person with a Toyota with the same engine has installed a vacuum gauge. Copy what they did and your good.

I'm debugging my Vacuum Gauge on saturnfans right now :
