Alpine HCE-RCAM-WRA Spare Tire Rear View Camera System for Jeep 2007-2018 Wrangler JK

It’s built for Jeep so it’s easy and logical how to do it all. Take your time and I get it right. It makes me a flawless look that’s highly functional. First day I had it, I backed up to a trailer hitch in the dark. The grid on screen is very accurate and easy to align to actual obstacles behind you. Picture quality is very good. To get that, you need to ensure you have the dimmer turned way down it and it will white-out at night.

Awesome camera with good picture quality.

I gave it two stars because I'm feeling nice. Picture quality isn't great. My wife 2015 rogue has a better quality camera. This is Alpine! It's price tag goes along with the top notch of the crowd! And you certainly do not get it. Using this on the wra-i207, which it was designed to be used with, and still. I hate it. Installation wasn't too bad. The cables aren't really the proper lengths and I have a JKU. The amount of extra cable I had could run another 8 feet. It does hold sturdy, however I went through a car wash? Instant flickering and blacking out. I had to undo the cable, clean it out and use some dialectic grease to help it. The fun little lines on the screen? You need to manually set those, and they don't move with the turning of the wheel even though I have a maestro module. Honestly, I think a cheaper alternative would have performed better.

Easy setup with an Alpine head unit - no need to tap-in or splice with any stock wires - simply connect to the head unit and it works.

I already had an alpine head unit and it plugged right in. Have to be careful with the wire chafes real easy.

These are of if you just want a rear view camera. I’m disappointed they don’t have any marker lines to tell you if you’re in the right parking lane.Also the resolution could be better. It’s 2020, bump it up guys.

I installed this into my four door 2014 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited Rubicon. To fit behind the stock Rubicon wheel, I had to bend the bracket just a little. It was surprising to have about 10 feet of extra cable, and a little bit of a disappointment considering the device is marketed as a custom fit for the Jeep JK. It integrated well with my Kenwood head unit using the supplied video adapter. There were no instructions included in the box, but there are very detailed instructions on Alpine's website that show you where to route the cable, and how to route around the subwoofer and behind the trim panels.When splicing into the vehicle's reverse line, make sure to tie into the white cable with a gray stripe, rather than the gray cable with a white stripe. Do yourself a favor and make the connection on the floor near the seat, rather than up underneath the glove compartment. I saw people complain about the video quality, but based on my opinion the video is as good as a composite video signal can be. Even in relative darkness, I am easily able to make out details necessary to park.I recommend picking up some RTV silicone to seal the rubber wire grommet after you wire the reverse camera through the tailgate. Consider buying harness tape or foam if that's something you care about. Other than that, it comes with everything needed to install this product to an aftermarket head unit with composite video in.After having this for a week, I can't believe I waited almost six years to do this. It took approximately one hour to install, and it's totally worth it.

We had this installed with the Alpine Restyle. It makes backing the JKU easy, and the lines can be adjusted based on its orientation. It can even be activated when not in reverse.
