So here are the links if anyone was wondering.

Here is the monitor: http://tinyurl.com/6jwnccn
Here is the camera: http://tinyurl.com/6fzmdps

I had enough RCA to run from the rear hatch, all the way up the dash board along the running panels inside the tahoe.

Grabbed my sabre saw and measure the depth of the monitor, subtracted from the cubby in the dash. and started cutting. Kept the bezel.

Slid that monitor into the slit that I created. This is how it looked.

This is how it looks in the dash.

Here it is with the nightvision. (Infared)

Here is the cam. Mounted right under the lip of the rear hatch/top of the bumper. Used security screws. Just have to paint the screws so it matches!

For $40.00, I was extremely impressed with the quality of products that I got. Anyways! Shoot me a message if you have questions!

Most people run it to the reverse. I tapped into the 4wd fuse for ign 12v. I use it as my rearview mirror. and have a switch to turn it off.

For the most part it is good. But mine has an odd camera placement behind the lens. So sometimes I don't get all the picture... But I have a replacement coming in!
