Retro fit reversing cam

Hi, sorry if this has been covered before but I've not been able to find anything using search.

Can I retro fit a reversing camera to my pre-touchscreen 2003 Vogue V8? Would be very handy when hitching up the trailers...

If it makes any difference, I am happy to use the TV input as this no longer works being analogue, and I have no desire to upgrade it to digital. I am also happy to manually switch it on rather than it coming on automatically in reverse if that makes a difference...

TIA

Cheers

Jerry

Thanks Craig that looks like an ideal solution - any suggestions re where to get a suitable camera from? Ideally I would like to get one as close to OEM as possible....esp. if it can use existing wiring loom... but nothing on eBay so I am guessing OEM are not easy to come by...

Cheers,

Jerry

Thanks DR I did read that thread but (1) it is for a car that already has a camera installed and (2) the author was unable to tell us the make of camera he bought....

Cheers

OK after some further reveiwing of the search results (thanks Stan), it appears that in order to have a camera that will see the towbar I need to do something other than the OEM install - as the OEM can't see the towbar!

I think it would work OK mounted in the number plate light.

Anybody done this??

There seem to be loads of kits on eBay for the Sport Disco etc. that give a neat install by replacing one of the number plate lights with a smaller light/camera combination, but nothing for the L322.....

Cheers

Jerry

on some of the ebay listings selling these number plate cameras, they give the dimensions ..its a case of removing your number plate light, measuring it and compare to the ebay ones. ... - .- -.

OK will do that - in the meantime if anybody has been there/done that, please let us know!

I will do a wiki entry when I have a solution....

Cheers,

I have mounted a tiny surface mounted camera below the rear bumper. Wouldn't know it's there unless you were looking, great rear visibility, ok in the dark with reversing lights, and looks straight over the top of the tow ball making hitching easy...
