Reverse Camera Questions

I'm thinking about installing a reverse camera in my TSX and would like some opinions. What kind of cameras are you guys using?

With dom's converter when I go into reverse will the screen switch to the camera even when I am in navi mode? I know when you want to switch from navi/dvd you have to use a seperate switch. Does the reverse camera work on both sides of the switch or just one? Where are you guys mounting your camera in your TSX? Seems like mounting it in the license plate is the only way to go, but most of the cameras I've looked at seem too big to do that. Thanks.

the best one i've seen its factory from a M45 when you put it in reverse it automatically turns on. Thats a no brainer. The cool thing is on the picture when u turn the wheel left and right it has a red outline of where your car would go in the picture, hahahah its so sweet. So if you were sitting in it standstill and turned the wheel left and right the red box in the picture would move accordingly.

For best picture quality and durability, the Pioneer NDBC1 is an awsome piece, somewhat pricey, I know you can buy bulletcams for cheap, but this one is high quality and color and awsome in the dark too.

Can be mounted in the cabin or externally. weather proof

Is an m45 a car or is it a camera manufacturer? And the pioneer.. thats a little like.. $350? Thats alot of cash to see what my ass-end is doing.. expecially when I back it into that 745IL.. I wonder if you can record what your ass end is doing? God I want so much but this welfare check doesnt afford me the luxurys.

350 for a camera!! That's a little too much, I was thinking of something in the 100 dollar range haha. I just want to be able to see my bumper and the car behind me like the MDX. I really like how in the MDX you can see the tip of your bumper so you can tell exactly how far you are from the car. If you mount the camera in the cabin of the car I don't think it will be possible to get the same effect?
