Hi guys, got a JVC double din, I'm aware you can get the JVC reversing camera but  they seem a bit steep. Was wondering if anyone had come accross any easy ones that would work? I want it to be small obviously but want it compatible with my unit also. Thanks

I found a cheap option, fold the roof down and look behind you  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  from the drivers seat you can see the back of the car.

Haha very funny lol, I want to use it for reversing into my garage, it's a tight squeeze and my veilside mirrors are a waste of time, I am not folding the roof down everytime lol

Can't help with the camera issue.

Can you not put up some mirrors in your garage? Cheaper and more reliable.

Wish I had one of them on board in Janes car last week and then I would have another £330 in my pocket this week!!

your garage is a tight squeeze, mines so narrow I would have to put the roof down as it would be the only way out!  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  I think my garage was built for an A30!

Drilled a small hole just above the number plate for the fixing bracket (Has the wire going through it) looks huge on the picture but it's really small, there's just enough room to get the nut on and tighten up, I did have to make a wedge out of a plastic dowel though to give the camera a better angle   s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
