EDIT: I'm not sure how much current your camera draws but something like this will step up the 11.7v to up to 14v....and anywhere in between. You set the output voltage with the pot on the side of the unit. Input voltage can be anywhere from 2.6V - 14V and the output voltage will remain the same....no dropout. I think this is better than running a wire from your fuse panel to your trunk. I know you need to run an RCA anyway for the video feed but it would cut down on wiring.
If you've never soldered before or don't want to, they sell a breakout board with screw terminals.

Wow, this is great, thanks! Unfortunately too late for my benefit.
I got a wireless transmitter/receiver for my camera, so no RCA cable routing required. The only wire I ran through the vehicle ended up being the single power wire, but I did that in less than 1 hour (including pulling the trunk liner and rewiring the system with relay circuit).
