I am working on one now, the display is going into the dash glove compartment and I will either use one camera or possibly two, as the display that I have will allow up to four camera inputs. I just have to design and build the enclosure for the display and make the determination on the number of cameras...

I got a 3 1/2 " diagonal measurement color VR3 unit from Amazon for $99.99 (free shipping) http://www.amazon.com/VR3-WIRELESS-S...&sr=8-8Mounted I mounted the camera inside at the top of the rear window (didn't want it to get damaged or stolen outside on the plate mount). The screen I mounted on a Console I made that fits in the upper glove box area which I removed. Right now I am in the process of making a new upper console as I call it that will have the screen and my gps.

I might try to take a pic of it in the unfinished stage tomorrow and post it. Real time project, getting one part to fit and then another, and making sure it fits the opening in the dash. Have a pic by Monday I'm sure.

anyone ever thought of putting the camera in one of the reverse lights? Not easy to steal and closer to bumper height.

Peace

Jeff
