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.
