Reverse camera systems

I would like to get a reverse camera system for my 04 F250 but know nothing about them. I just seen one the other day that was wireless and didn't care for it as the picture was not so clear. So I am thinking wired. Can anyone recomend any systems? The one I had seen had the screen mounted just over the rear veiw mirror. Thanks for any help.

Look for one with integrated IR illumination. They are typically b/w, but you don't have the flood the area with visible light.

I am very happy with my Boyo camera, but you have to come up with your own way to display it. I have mine hooked up to my in dasah DVD player so it comes on whenever I shift into reverse, or if I flip on upfitter switch #4.



The camera is built into the license plate frame and you can adjust the angle up and down however you want it. It also does very well in the dark using just the stock reverse lights.

There have been many reports of interference with the wireless cameras. Everything from baby monitors, to reverse sensors have been reported to mess them up.

Better bet is to contact www.rvcams,com. use me as the referral. They have a number of set-ups specifically for what you want to do.

I have their gear in a number of vehicles.
