I have the same problem with my Garmin suction .......care to post a pic or link to this new device that doesn't rely on the suction?

Bloody hell Sean.....welcome to the forum, and congrats on the Motor. Those mods sound nice, do share pics of the individual mods when you get some time please, it helps put things into perspective i.e. talk is cheap and all that Why the Avenger K&N CAI filter?

This thread offers less without pictures

Pictures of these installed will be appreciated

Welcome to the forum...New guy Hmmmm...so not from Waterloo Ontario then, home of Blackberry maker RIM? LOL I bought myself a portable DVD player 9" from best buy and it just wraps around the headrest in front, gets power from the 12v between to back sits. It also comes with a remote control and plays everything you throw at it....USB and SD cards For Nav, just get a stand alone GPS that you can take from car to car, and put away when not using. My Garmin works great here and in the US

Perhaps it's your accent? LOL Try using a Southern drawl or Cockney accent

Wow....bloody hell mate, you sure are expecting a lot for the price of the item....what next from you, does it drive the car for you while you scratch your bum? LOL

@Destination......Thanks! I mean for less than $50, it' snot too shabby at night from what have seen but you still have to be vigilant and conscious of your surroundings

Thanks for this recommendation! I popped into Princess Auto today and snagged one, it's actually on sale now for 40 odd dollars and the sale ends on Sunday I believe. Whilst there I also bought some bits and bobs Cheers

You have to MANUALLY turn off the screen when you put the car back in drive (the screen goes blue and says no signal). It does come with a wee remote you can use instead of touching the screen. Yes it acts as a rear view mirror when turned off I didn't want to get a stand alone backup camera to sit on the dash because I use a GPS now and again that hangs from the windshield. By going this route, it looks just like a rear view mirror

The camera installs over the top of your licence plate.....am not going to post my licence plate up if that is what you are asking. Different cameras can be used with the lcd screen. Again...the camera is in the link provided to give you an idea of size

Another reason why iPhone is **** I always found Apple users pretentious and the are the same people that drink Starbucks. I'll never understand why people will pay more for an item that does less that the competitor? Get an Android phone and you won't have that problem

OK Ok Ok...keep your knickers on mate Ebay item: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/7-Car-LCD-Monitor-Mirror-Wireless-IR-Reverse-Car-Rear-View-Backup-Camera-Kit-/141236899085?pt=US_Rear_View_Monitors_Cams_Kits&hash=item20e2600d0d There are many like this on there..."buy it now " . Mine was under $50 with $5 shipping Before install the directions are garbage so look at them once and toss it. It's a pretty simple connection though red= positive, black= negative, green= brake line & the other is obvious video. Installing the back-up camera was of course easy: unscrew the license plate boom your done. Camera power cable just taps into your rear power line from the lights: Check voltage: and run the ground to a good spot and your camera is done. Running the wires was not too much fun but still not too bad just invest in some zip ties to secure the line. Of course mounting the unit on the already there mirror is easy. You sort of have 2 choices on the power: either go with an accessory line as long as you get 12 volts, below that equals a crappy picture. Or you can run the power to your battery and have the choice to turn it off and on every time you get in and out of the car. Please connect it to an ACC power line it will be so much easier. I just ran the ground under the dash where there were other ground wires: easy. Okay got the easy stuff done. Hardest part: Location of your brake wires. Luckily it's usually black and pink. And if you're lucky and have a trailer set up you can just connect into that line under hood or dash and good luck under the dash. Connected my video cables and battery put my ignition in the start position without starting the motor: put her in reverse and boom a nice bright view behind me in the Day Light. After snugging everything down and double checking everything to be on the safety 3rd side it was time to give it a test. During the day it works great and I have a nice clear picture behind me. One thing I noticed is that it doesn't have a too good of a peripheral vision to my right or left but it is acceptable.

PT Cruiser...what were you thinking man? That automobile is as cute as the singer from Quebec who did the commercial song for it

Hitch installed 26th March Backup camera installed 27th March
