Back-up camera

I purchased a $23 ebay back-up camera for my Edge CTS & after 2 weeks has condensation & issues. Has anyone found a great after market back-up camera for tailgate or license plate? Boyo cameras seem better made but would prefer to hear from someone who owns one. Thx in advance.

This seems like a good camera but lux (low light capability) is 1 lux. Wish it was .3-.5 lux. Anybody have this one?

I bought my Travel Trailer camera setup from RVS SYSTEMS | Reverse Camera Systems | RVSSYSTEMS.COM
I mounted a camera on the rear of my 35 ft TT as well as my license plate to aid in hooking up. No issues in over 3 yrs.

This is where I got my setup for the truck and fifth wheel. No complaints.

I had one of those Ebay cameras too. It got condensation in it after every rain storm. I took it apart, cleaned it really good and then sealed it up tight. So far, no more condensation.
