I just installed one I got from K Mart.
With a clearance price of $19.00, it does not bother me if it only lasts a year or so. Wiring is all in for the replacement if needed down to track. Got the option for a second camera on the monitor. (Mirror type) DGTEC Brand

ARB. Not cheap but it's done well. Your mirror is replaced and the new one can take two inputs and there is audio input as well - ideal if you've just run over the family pet. There's night vision and the option to manually switch the camera on while driving so as to check eg. what your tow is doing.

Whatever you end up getting, make sure the camera is waterproof. (IP67 or greater)

The troopie I bought had an aftermarket reversing camera fitted. The camera had been installed beside the tow-hitch. All worked perfectly.
The unit that had been fitted, I have seen at a retail price of over $300.00

First deep water I drove through the camera died.

A good, waterproof camera (camera only) is up around the $150 to $200 I believe.

I haven't replaced mine yet..............

On a similar wavelength, I wanted to add a DVR camera to record what I am seeing that will plug into my Entertainment unit. It takes a reverse camera already with sockets for other cameras.

Some of them are priced at $1000, which seems to be a misprint. (camera and cords only!)

Anyone have one or do I just get a cheapie that records into the camera.

My $129 wireless Jaycar job is now 4 years old and still going OK. I bought it to cover a $300 dent on the back of the Prado.
