Re: Rear camera Reply #2 – July 22, 2019, 01:50:16 am Too many options for a good answer.Wired or wireless?Console, rear view mirror or sun visor mount?Position of camera? Inside the rear window, on the license plate or, preferably mounted high on the rear, over the window, for the best view.Is it only to be on when in reverse or any time at will? Our camera is left on all the time, when driving, it's works better than the rear view mirror and keeps the toad in view.DIY or installed at an RV shop.Prices can be from less than $200 for a DIY cheap wireless camera to over $1200 for a wired, high mounted camera with a console mount. The Mothership charges around $1200 for the camera option, AFAIK, they do not do aftermarket installations.Larry

Vince at Lazy Daze told me not to put it on the roof because there was no bracing for it and it was almost guaranteed to leak. He had me put it on top of the faux spare tire cove. I used the Haloview wireless camera. I had mine installed at Best Buy in Riverside, CA for $80. 3 Likes As an Amazon Associate Lazy Daze Owners' Group earns from qualifying purchases.

Mine is over this rear window and originally pointed to the trailer hitch. I turned it up a bit and can see the tow'd and traffic behind me.
