Nice Camera, missing hole saw
I’d installed the camera in my Jeep Grand Cherokee with Pioneer 5600 DVD. The Installation was not simple, since I had to add extra video cable (the power cable is longer). As I noticed in other review, the hole saw that was supposed to come included in the kit was missing so I had to buy another one to be able to make the proper hole. The camera is water and dust resistant, and has a clear night vision, but since it has no angular lens (peep hole type) it doesn’t cover both ends of the bumper and right there you miss the whole point of having a rear view camera. Just because of that, I would suggest further research of other similar products.

Image quality good, angle not as wide as I’d like
Overall this seems like a very good camera. The quality seems good and so far has not had any issues due to weather like previous cameras. I didn’t want to drill a hole in the body of my truck to accommodate this camera so I installed it into a plastic housing under the bumper. It gets a good view, but surprisingly it can’t actually see to the corners of the vehicle. The viewing angle of the camera almost makes it, but objects have to be 3-4 feet away (behind) the corners in order for the camera to pick them up. In the worst case, if something were right at the bumper on either side but just out of view of the side mirrors, you wouldn’t be able to see it and could hit it. Other than this, if you’re starting out somewhere that you know to be clear, then you’re OK and can use your mirrors and camera to make it all work. The image quality is quite good, and at night can see well too.

A big investment on a low budget rear view camera
I bought this rear view camera to be used on my Pioneer Car AVHP4000DVD Double Din AV Multimedia Receiver that I have on my Lancer 2008.

The camera images look GREAT, it also has infrared sensors for an AMAZING night vision, you don’t even need your reverse lights to be turned on to see in complete darkeness, I can ASSURE you that.

It is waterproof, and this feature I did test it already, since it rains a lot in my country and haven’t had a single problem with the camera.
