OEM spoiler camera fitment

OEM spoiler camera fitment
Some of you may remember that not too long ago a dealer did a very poor install of the OEM spoiler for me (chipped, poorly fitted, etc). Well, as mentioned in the other topic they ordered a new spoiler for me. It was installed this past Thursday. They did a much better job this time...looks much much better. As it should.
However, although the spoiler is installed much better, I suspect the camera is fitted improperly. Even though the last install was poorly done, the camera seemed proper. Good fit. Looked as I expected. This time, it seems a little too far recessed as if it wasn't placed properly. Based on this, I'm wondering if someone would help me be snapping a close up photo of their camera fitment on an OEM spoiler that was installed after delivery (not from factory) to help me compare.
I looked around but anything I found didn't show the camera close enough to see the details. A pic of the monitor with the car in reverse might be helpful too as I seem to have more "tunnel vision" going on than I did with the last install.
My first thought was maybe they replaced it with a lesser spoiler as those are prone too excessive tunnel vision but at the same time, I know the camera is supposed to be slightly recessed. And overall this appears to be the factory spoiler (as far as I.can tell) that just looks as if they didn't put the camera in place properly (looks like someone rushed that part but if they did it right it would fit as it should).
So if someone wouldn't mind helping me out with those pics, I'd be most appreciative
I might be OK with this if others are similar but I won't be sure unless I have something to compare.
(I knew I shouldn't have been lazy / anxious in the first place nd should have installed it myself...:/)
