WIRELESS CAR REAR VIEW KIT 7" LCD MIRROR MONITOR+IR REVERSING CAMERA 6LED
$77 on ebay. Does anyone have any reports about these?
Are they easy to install?
Have you fitted one to the back of a Hilux, if so where did you actually put the camera?
Thanks
Wato

Hi,
Have 3 cameras mounted on my travelling rig. Not a hi-lux but utes are all very similar.
One hard wired above & behind the tow ball. Great for coupling but not much else. Have to be in reverse to work.
One wireless on the rear of the caravan & the other wireless at the top & middle of the canopy. All work fine with very little interference. We found when mounting the wireless ones that they worked best with the sender mounted as close to the screen as possible. The best position was under the dash but we ended up putting it under the passenger
seat. As said little to no interference.
Dedicated dash mounted screen for wireless cameras. Just switch which ever screen needed, on. In dash unit can handle main screen & 2 auxillaries but find dedicated screen more convenient. The camera on the canopy replaces the internal rear vision mirror. Not legal but better than nothing.
All bought at Jaycar, Total spend around $500. Dearest being the in dash unit.
Bill
