I've just ordered the parts for testing, and, if all goes well, I'm going to setup something similar to this video for a rearview camera solution. The video transmitter has gotten some mixed reviews, but I'll just return everything if I'm not confident that it'll be fairly reliable. For a monitor, I picked up a crazy-cheap Kindle Fire HD 7, which will replace the existing (useless) rearview mirror and be mounted to the top-center of the windshield. I'm planning on centering the camera up above the the rear bath window, which will allow me to easily hide the little transmitter gizmo inside the over-sink cabinet, as well as tie power for both into the nearby clearance lights circuit. The idea, of course, is to have the camera and transmitter powered up whenever my lights are on, and I plan on always having the tablet active and receiving video, when traveling. (Kindle will be mounted with one of these but will also serve as a reader while camping, since I do love my books.) To be continued...

Thinking of installing side view cameras similarly to larger motorhomes. 1. Mount a screen by the rear view mirror. 2. Install left and right side view cameras. 3. Get signals from left and right turn so when turning right, the relay will switch to right side camera...same for left side... Has anyone done this before? Any idea or tips? The driving factor behind this is my wife wants to drive the motorhome but she claims she can't see anything. I already have a permanently on rear view camera view on the Pioneer deck. Thanks
