I have a Kenwood head unit that has backup camera capability. Please share your pics and descriptions Thanks!




I'm currently looking at the Kenwood CMOS-230.

 

I would like to get one also, so I am curious as to what responses you get...

 

I want to do a double din soon and a tailgate handle mounted camera.

 

I'm tired of climbing out of the truck 10 times to line up my hitch ball lol


Some of the reviews on the Kenwood camera are saying the thing isn't waterproof....WTH is that all about?


Anyway, I put off the camera search for a few weeks. Working on the exhaust at the moment.

 

After renting a Tahoe a few months ago that had a backup camera, I've tossed around the idea of one, myself. I need to replace the stereo in my truck, anyway, as it has been broken for about a year now (hey, the exhaust is all the music I need... so I tell myself). I don't know. I've made it 11 years without one, I'm probably fine as-is. I don't really tow anything anymore, so I don't have the hitch issues, and I've become pretty proficient at backing up/in using my mirrors over the years. If something presents itself when I go to finally get my radio fixed I might check it out. I was interested in following this thread just to see what's out there in the aftermarket. You guys need to discuss more...

 

I'm getting a 7" double din from Crutchfield, with the silver center piece from ebay, and I can't find a tailgate handle mounted camera.
Ill take a look to see if I can just drill and epoxy one in, if not, maybe i'll look for something to mount elsewhere.
I'm pretty sure it has inputs for A front camera as well, if so I might drill and put one in my grill.

 

I found this model by accident today. I was actually Googling for a new rearview mirror that's a little bigger. It's a tailgate handle camera with the viewer in the rear view mirror. It's not worth 629 bucks to me because I already have a radio screen to handle one, but you guys might like it.

I got one that Autozone sells. The display mounts like a GPS with a suction cup on the windshield. Since I have Uconnect with an auto dimming mirror, I just power it from there. its wireless to the camera that mounts on top of the license plate and is powered off of the reverse wire in my 7 pin trailer harness. Works great for just over $100. It has night vision as well.

 

I have the cmos 300 hate it everything loos like its in a bubble.

 

That's good to know, thanks
