Colorado Av Club Forums: Back up camera

Message

   I'm only 5'6" so I saw a wireless back up cam at Target for about $94 and picked it up. Easy install, and no more backing into everything since I can only see the tops of my bed covers out of the back of my truck.

	This would come in handy. Can it be used all the time or only in reverse. Last night I had some dumba$$ in a little sports car so close I never knew he was there until I turned the corner.

	Mine is hooked to the reverse light leads but if you went the fuse box I suppose you could have it full time.

	you should also be able to wire a bypass switch. Where did you put the monitor? I'd like to see it. I have the Cubby Cam!

	Nice. I just velcroed mine to the dash under my onstar buttons above the ashtray and put the camera under the tailgate. I'm fixing to do the stereo so I didn't want it permanent yet untill i get that stuff done. Edited by justjr - 17 Mar 2007 at 4:55am

	Rocky, how well can you see a hitch where you mounted your camera head? I hook trailers up alot and am concerned about where to put it so I can see it the best. I know where they suggest to put it, in the empty space just above the reciever part, however when I put on my stabalizer hitch, I think it will block my view of the ball.
	Yea, My modifications on my truck are worth more than my truck.

	You know I mounted mine under the tailgate cladding and have a direct view of my hitch ball but if you were running a line of fire it wouldn't work there. Mine's kind of generic compared to Loyd's but it works great unless I am on my cell phone. For some reason it meeses up the wireless signal.

	I cannot see my hitch. It it's the ground about 18 inches out from the hitch. That is one of the propblems with the Bezel camera. My other problem is the camera stoped working about 1 week over my year warranty. Guess I need to look for another camera.
