    Probably not a good enough resolution for that. That will also depend on the angle of the camera as well. If it’s super wide then it will be hard to determine lines at the edges of view.

    Awesome, thank you for the feedback nzbrock. I really do like that mirror for how clean and stock looking it is. I still may end up going that direction

    Yea I think having the screen up there is great. I was concerned about it being awkward, but I adjusted to it pretty quickly.

    With the 10" screen I need something that protrudes far enough to clear the dash contour.
    I positioned the display to clear the CB radio, which makes the top of the display interfere a little with the HVAC controls. However, I can still access the HVAC controls easy enough. If I ever remove the CB radio, the display has the capability to translate up and down about +/- 2.5 inches so I can move the display lower to clear the HVAC controls completely.

    That doesn't look half bad! All I have down below is a scanguage. If your CB fits, I'm sure the scanguage will too

    The front camera will stay on until you turn it off or turn off the truck, then it returns to rear. The screen is bright enough to see during the day just fine. The start up feels a little slow to me but this is my first stereo with a screen so I don't really have anything to compare it to. It might be the same as all the others. The reviews of it will talk about the warning being really annoying, but it doesn't bother me and the most recent software update makes it turn off automatically after a few seconds. The sound is pretty good too.
