I had to file down the round edge a little too to fit cleanly,,
and some black rtv to help seat the camera and make it look better,,
the Peak transmitter only sends 5v to their license plate camera, so I had to run a second lead off the backup light to the 12 camera power lead.
I had some waterproof weatherpack connectors for another job, and used them to keep the gate removable.
the license plate mount camera (in the Peak package) gives u a little more rear view than the tailgate cam.. I am thinking of a switch to toggle cameras..
the handle cam is good for nearby... the license plate for general backing up.. (makes getting out of my yard easier)..
but I used the handle cam to backup in the McDonalds line the other day when the car in front stalled and they couldn't figure out what to do.. got about 1 in away
in a dually !
| oh, and I didn't do the original write up, so can't take credit.. I'm just passin it on.. (after using it myself)..
