...who's got them and what have you installed? This is not for you ballers that buy an overpriced vehicle every two years but for those of us that mod our older paid off vehicles.

I had one (till I killed it) that was part of my license plate frame. I Really miss that thing when hooking up my trailers!

I picked up one of these. It was simple to install and works very well for the price. I originally was going to install a wired system but decided against it over wireless.

X2 I have one tied into my head unit that is my license plate frame. It’s blurry and I can’t see shit out of it. Looking for a quality replacement.

I have two pickups and just finished the second install. Replacing the first next week as I can tell now it's the older model. They work well for under $100.

I’ve had this one on my truck for a few years now and I really like it. Great picture quality. Unfortunately had to replace it last Thursday, but I replace it with the same one.

I installed a cheap license plate camera from Amazon on my 02 Ford Superduty. It's wired into a double din head unit I installed years ago. I wired it to come on whenever I wanted to turn it on. That way I can check on my cargo. Normally its wired into the reverse switch in the steering column but that a pain in the Ass.

I wired both of my wireless systems for backup use. I have two secondary cameras to pair still. On mine I am considering using it for constant on cargo view. On the Duramax it will be used in the future on a truck camper.

I just bought one that replaces the rear view mirror with full time camera and screen.

Solved some small problems.

Made others dangerous ones.

Hind site......I would have not bought it.

I looked at one built into the mirror and decided against it.

I put this one in my coach recently. 10" screen with wireless camera: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...ums-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957

I also added a second, license plate camera, for hooking up to the hitch. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...ums-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957

Worked great in the driveway, but had some issues with the main camera on the first trip. They are sending me a replacement camera now. I'm hoping it will be troublefree. Picture is good and night vision works well.
