im kinda of a tech geek but i came across this, what do u guys think about it? if i get it i wouldn't mind having it on all the time while im driving. im not lazy or anything just looking around at gizmos.

I have something similuar. Got it local from WM. love it actually and you do not have to have it on constantly. have the monitor on all the time (also pick up other wireless cameras when during my travels. kinda fun) and the camera is hooked into my reverse wires. only transmits when in reverse.

You could try to find something that they put on the toyota pickups. Sorry for mentioning that disgusting name, but they hide theres in the tailgate handle.
