notsobigkahuna Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Anyone have advice on a good rear view camera... maybe with an easy install. I like the idea of one that goes over the current rear view mirror as it is useless. Kahuna in Kanada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicoastal eric Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I'm looking into this right now too, considering getting a new stereo head unit as my current one doesn't have an aux in, bluetooth, or a remote, all of which would be nice to have. I'm seeing some single-din units with 7" motorized displays with all the mentioned features and in input for the rear view camera as well as video outs which I was thinking I could run back to the flat panel in the back. I'm seeing these in the $125 range on amazon. however, if your happy with your current stereo, a rear view mirror mounted one is a good idea.

Back East Don Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Some of the rear view types have fairly small screens. I ended up replacing the first monitor I installed and opted for a 7 inch that I mounted above rather than over. I like this location vs lower as it is just instinctive to look there. Next year I need to replace the camera as I am heading into year 6 with the one I have and video quality is not up to some of the newer ones. I installed the same monitor in my service van but with a better camera and it is much sharper and handles light variations better. Also would love to go up with a downward to rear type camera like some delivery vans use. Season is over here so will wait till next year to decide what. Just offering an opinion.
