    Order the module off of EBay and save the $50 shipping. I received mine in only 8 calendar days shipped from Hong Kong but your experience may vary. Just received it Tues and haven't installed it yet.

    $50 shipping? I bought mine on Amazon and it was only $5 shipping.

    Check the car solutions link in message #10. Yeah, they want $50 shipping from Eastern Europe. Ebay is like $4 dollars more but free shipping from Hong Kong. If I'd know it was on Amazon, I'd have gone that route.

    using a 5/16 drill bit with starter hole tip I drilled up through the plastic there which is flat on top inside for placement of the bolt giving the orientation meant for this camera which is the one that comes for the anytime backup camera full kit when I got it, still wiring the rest (old and slow), will follow up at some point

    Yeah you just rotate the camera once you have it hooked up and can view through it.

    Was the original camera wire not long enough to hook into the module, hence the reason you bought additional 18 gauge wire?

    Your setup is super clean! I might go this route after seeing your setup!

    It's very wide angle, that truck was about 10' away. The camera's entire purpose is to see what I cannot see because of the front of the vehicle. I can already see the road because of the OEM inclusion of a windshield lol.

    Would you use it to drive?

    Question for those w/ 2 channel, any other methods to mount the rear camera than directly sticking the camera to the rear window? I just ordered my camera but was thinking of maybe trying to attach a suction cup to the rear camera so that I don't "permanently" stick the camera to my window in case I want to remove it in the future :notsure:
