Thanks Bro. That rating (comment) will definitely narrow my Rev-Camera option/selection

The one with the eBay logo logo on the right looks like it doesn't have the right angle on it.

^ That's the one I used on my car before. It works well, except you need to trim the locking tabs down a bit in order to fit the thickness of the stock piece you're mounting on.

Also I think this cam is intended to be mounted off center, so you'd need to mount it tilted (towards the driver side if I recall correctly) in order to get a centered view angle on our cars. Not that much, probably about 10-15 degrees or so.

I've since switched to a different cam (was suggested by another member in this thread before) that's a bit slimmer in profile.

What did you get? . . . and how would you rate your current cam (out of 5 stars)?

I can't find the ebay page for the cam I got right now... dunno if anyone remembers but the guy who reco'd it had a pic of the camera view in his garage before he did the final install. it's buried somewhere in this thread...

It works fine, is all I have to say about it. A cam's a cam as far as backup view quality is concerned. I just went with it because it's less noticeable if you look at the car from the back. (sticks out less). 4 outta 5 stars I guess?...

that camera was very disappointing. It leaked water within the first weak and the night time performance was subpar. I ended up getting one from my local shop thats much better. not sure of name or brand though, just be careful with the one posted above.
