Gator Mirror Mount Reverse Camera

Hi

Seeking comment on mirror mounted reversing cameras like that listed below. Any experience with this model, this type of installation, alternate options?

I have a canvas canopy on the back of my MN triton (zero rear view visibility) and would like to install a reversing camera to be used when driving (forward).

Not too interested in upgrading the stereo etc to a headset with reverse camera input.

Thanks
Danos

A few issues with that brand, Danos. Like can't see in daylight and short cables, loose fitting and other problems.

But, the concept is brilliant. I've driven a vehicle with a good one fitted and it made a big difference. I have 2 reversing cams in the Paj and the factory one runs rings around the aftermarket one for picture quality, even though I bought what was supposedly the best camera available.

Shop around and see if you can find a better one.

If work is so terrific, why do they have to pay us to do it?

Put one in my Little Workmate Hilux trayback, cant fault it, dead easy to hook up perfect picture clarity, each to their own I suppose ;)
Sure beats reversing over something or more importantly some one
