Back-up Camera

[sperold]

Has anyone installed a back up camera system in their car. I have been looking into it and came across a great article on what they really are and what to look for:

If anyone has done it, let me know what you used.

I did but only because it came with the headunit I installed. Clarion NX501. Mine is wired in, switches automatically when I put it in reverse. It is a normal CCD camera in the daytime, and at night its got an IR nightvision mode, and also has 7 IR LED's to help light up the area behind you. I like it because it also has a pattern on it so I can tell how straight I am lining up in a parking spot and how far away from objects I am. I installed mine right under the keyhole on the trunk lid. I'll get you a pic here when I go outside here in a few. I wouldn't have done it if it was a standalone thing, but I do kinda like it I must admit.

It sounds like you got a good one, from the information I posted. You seem to have all the right things.
Do you know the name of the camera with the IR night vision and the separate LEDs.
Every year, it gets a little harder to fully turn around in the seat.
