Title: FD reversing camera
Post by: bbb on March 10, 2017, 10:43:42

Hi guys,

I have put chinesse reversing camera + LCD into my FD and I am really happy with them for a few months now. It has surprisingly good low light picture even without the extra LEDs, what they forgot from my cam :) Total cost was about 21$
The LCD had to be modified a little - the sun shade thingy had to be gone from the plastic. Except this mod, it was a not hard to fit all with and keep the OEM look. The LCD is mounted inside the upper tray, which can be closed when not needed the screen, and it was not drilled at all! The wire from the LCD goes through the gap of the opening mechanism.
The LCD is holded by two magnet and the base is folded from sheet metal.

Here are the links for the items:

They were cheaper when I bought them, just for reference (if one would like to follow me, just search for them)...

I have my GPS working in that location but I like what you've done. Maybe I'll get around to hacking my old 4.3" Mio Moov back to its native Windows CE.
Then I could install freeware GPS alongside rear view / dash cam software.
Project for another day. :D
