Car Backup Camera, Rear View Camera Ultra HD 12 LED Night Vision,Waterproof Reverse Camera 140° Wide View Angel with Multiple Mount Brackets for Universal Cars,SUV,Trucks,RV and More

I have purchased and installed three of these on my vehicles, and each one has performed exceptionally well. The picture quality is excellent—clear and vibrant—and the built-in light is bright and reliable. The overall build quality is impressive. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a dependable solution.

Pretty good camera! I installed it myself on my 98' Toyota Camry. The photos you see there are me tube shrink soldering the reverse trigger wire from the Video Wire to the Reverse Input wire (purple on my radio's harness). I mounted it above the car's emblems. I sealed the camera cable with some Black RTV silicone adhesive. The instructions are NOT great for installation. Also, a TIP is if you want to trigger the camera when put the car in reverse you got to make of course make the same connection as I did in my photos. But, also with the power wire it the camera system brings you have to take the black and ground it to the harnesses ground wire (mine was white with a black line) and then take the red wire from the power wire and along with the Video Wire's red wire mate them TOGETHER to the reverse power wire (which is also red) on the car's reverse harness connector. This part was confusing for me because the power wire this system brings also comes with its own shorter thinner red wire and I didn't know where it went. But it's NOT needed for the installation. So, instead you just tape it away and proceed with the Video Wire's red thinner wire instead.

The camera is decent enough. the quality is straight out of 2005, but that’s surprisingly better quality than what was on my 2016 Mazda. Install is pretty simple, don’t bother with the terrible instructions, just watch a YouTube video if you need to. DEFINITELY don’t trust the instructions about cutting the loops to reverse the image.. I was trying to install it too quick and just trusted the instructions (or what I understood from the broken English) and cut one of the wires to “flip” the image, thinking that would make it the correct way. Apparently that was not correct. Hopefully it’s just a bit of splicing to fix the issue tomorrow, but just don’t pay attention to the instructions and you’ll be find.

I just installed this but it’s a good unit out of the box. I needed the cable it came with and was happy it was longer than I anticipated, I have a long truck (extended cab long bed) and this reached the back with some to spare. Good view angle, good clarity, good value. Not sure how waterproof it is but it will be exposed to water every time it rains, so I will update if it fails

The camera works great. My application is different from most in that I wanted it mounted higher so that I could see over bikes on my bike rack. A camera mounted near the license plate would be blocked when bikes are loaded. I didn't want to drill a hole so I mounted the included bracket to a small black right angle bracket (from a hardware store), that I then mounted to a car roof magnet (purchased here on Amazon). I ran the wires through a gap in the minivan rear window hatch, so no holes were drilled and the camera can be moved if needed. I connected the reverse trigger wire to my backup light wire near the rear left taillight assembly. The included blue snap lock wire tap was too large for my backup light wire, so I used Posi-Tap connectors instead (purchased on Amazon). In the photos, I show them side-by-side. The wire easily pulled out of the blue connector. They fit snugly in the black Posi-Taps. If your backup light wire is thicker, the included blue tap may work for you. I installed the camera with the 'always-on' power option so I can view the video anytime while driving (not just while in reverse). I'm not using the on screen guides (cut the green wire) or the LED lights (cut the brown/orange wire). Instructions say there is a brown wire (my camera had an orange wire, not a brown one). Because I routed the camera wire a longer distance (to the side of the minivan window) than a standard install near the license plate. I needed to extend the wires. So I purchased a waterproof junction box (on Amazon) and connected the wires to the extensions inside that box. That's the small black box with green tips seen in the photo. That is NOT included or needed with a standard install. So far, I'm happy with the video quality.

[UPDATED REVIEW 3/23/2020] I am changing my rating for this camera to 5 stars because it clearly does need the lights that I said I drilled out in my earlier review. I don't know how they've done it, but this camera does an excellent job gathering ambient light to show your surroundings while backing up. It is far superior to the 8 year old camera that I had to replace. Furthermore, the vendor "cold" contacted me to let me know that they have seen the reviews from those of us who are disappointed over the inability to turn the lights off. And they stated that a new version of the camera will be coming out soon with a brown wire that can be cut to disable the lights. I am leaving my original review below just so folks who are interested can read how disable the lights with a drill. Again though, I now believe this to be a superior camera, and I am looking forward to seeing the new one with brown wire for disabling the lights. Excellent customer service as well! [Original review] As several others have noted, when you power this camera by wiring it directly to your header unit, the LED lights will turn on (and stay on) when the car is running. Apparently, it is an all or nothing deal. When the camera has power, the lights also have power. This is less then ideal for those of us who want to access the camera while driving. For example, I like to turn on the camera when I am towing my trailer to make sure everything is okay and nothing is flapping around or loose. The only way to not have the lights on all the time seems to be by "piggy-backing" the power from the back up lights. But then this would mean that I would also not be able to view the camera except for when I am backing the car up. I'm guessing what I really need is a product that uses separate power sources for both the LED lights and the camera. Maybe the LED lights could separately be wired to the backup lights while the camera gets its power from the header unit? I'm not sure if anyone actually makes a camera with lights that are powered by a separate source, but it seems there might be a market for that based on some of the other reviews I have read here. Anyway, I just followed the advice of another reviewer and I drilled out the 4 corner LEDs and sealed them shut with water proof Gorilla glue. Other then that, the picture from this camera is pretty good. I just wish I could have had the backup lights while only backing up.

Product works ok during dry weather, But during cold or wet weather the unit fogs up and stays cloudy for a long time, take a long time to clear up after warmer weather comes around. i will keep it, but not happy with the results of the product. Bob So-Cali
