Great Quality Rearview Camera

[denalianyone]

This camera replaced my bs rearview license plate camera that fogged up most of the time and was poor quality at night. Therefore, I got to the searching and found this. It is a rostra camera and comes with a 3.5" monitor. Very small and great quality in the daytime as well as night. They accepted my offer for $70 shipped. I didnt install the monitor because I incorporated the video feed into my dd headunit.

i was just looking for a cheap but good reverse cam, got any pics to share maybe daytime and nightime in different scenes

Yes and mouting pics. I will also invest in a Camera soon and dont need a monitor cause my DD headunit has a rcamera in.

My main concern is "kids" damaging/stealing the camera and ofc to get a good quality picture.

I'll try and snap some pics tonight of the mounting and visual.

Here are a few pics I snapped with my iphone. I can't find my digi cam at the moment.

This a night view, the pics really don't depict the true quality of the camera.

Day light shot.

Camera mounted underneath liftgate (totally out of sight).

Will this fit in the little onstar cubby in the dash? and does it come with enough wire for a yukon xl or will i need to buy wire?

what cam did u have before this one? i just bought a peak, and can u run the cam to a fuse and a switch instead of the reverse lights? i like to keep the cam on while driving.

It should fit in the onstar cubby and 'im not sure if it comes with enough wire. I had wire already from the previous camera.

I had a high resolution plate camera with a rearview tracker. It was advertised as high quality but was far from it. If you like the power wire may be hooked to a switch.

I'd like to get a back up cam but one that is a bit more concealed mounted where it will give a view of the bumper. I'll drill a hole in sheet metal if it works good.

I plan on remounted mines under the bumper right above the tow hitch. Just haven't got around to doing it yet.

It would be nice to have a view from the top so you can see exactly where the bumper is and how far you are from hiting objects.
But I don´t see any smooth way of doing this without it being obvius. And would clearly atract attention from punks.
