Default camera field of view

I know that I'm hijacking this thread, and am sorry for it, but I would really like to see Dustinmc5's e-bay cameras field of view. Do you see what the OE camera sees? Could you post a picture of your display? Thanks.

Dustin I did exactly what you did. Looks good, pretty easy stuff when you have LockPick or Navtvgo..(spellcheck I have LockPick) sorry. I put a cam in the front too. Only thing my cameras both lost their black paint and are copper I used some black touch up paint on them for now and contacted the seller, mine are ccd they don't do that fishbowl look and are super clear night and day. I paid 100 bucks each so I am concerned since they were only on for one winter.

I have the OEM my gig and use the all gig as opposed to lockpic. This camera is LED night vision and I mounted in the stock location. Came with 16ft cable, tapped into the 7 pn trailer connector for reverse trigger and ground. It displays on stock radio whne in reverse. Looks and works greast and only $25. I compared to a friends stock $300 camera and every bit as good.

Anyone figured out how to have the camera active when driving instead of just in reverse as a wide angle rearview mirror (should be menu option in my opinion)?

If you are using the LockPick of Navtogo you should wire your camera, power,ground and video to the LOckpick of Navtogo module then you can control your camera/cameras when you want. So you need to run a new set of wires under the truck, it's fun. The way you did it there is no need for Lockpick or Navtogo I would think.?

Need some help guys, I installed the OEM camera kit did the flash at the dealer and I have no display. When i put it into Reverse it switches to the camera view but its a black screen with "Watch out for objects" or something like that on the top of the screen. I am thinking my camera feed wire may not be connected properly, any suggestions are helpful
