Skydiver107 Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Pioneer ND-BC2. Little costly, but worth it. Bought one to replace the el-cheapo one I had that died in 3 days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jackalanche Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 what is the point of one of these really? do you know how to parellel park? I guess its just for show. Â well, call me a sissy-la-la but if you had a real MAN'S vehicle (like an Avalanche, for instance ) you would understand the attraction to a rear-view camera. Plus, I have found it very interesting to switch it on when I think someone has stopped really close to my tail and see just how close they came . . . . Â to be honest, in my Av when parallel parking I have no interest in coming close to bumping the car behind me, since that would usually result in a crease on thier hood since my Av sits up higher. Given the fact that parallel spots don't usually come in "extra large", this is always an issue and it is a game of inches (and I have no idea exactly how close I might be to the rearward car otherwise).

Spares me the training requirement of telling my wife shes not guiding me right. Now I can do it by myself. Also if little kids dart out behind you.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess its just for show.  alot of good comes out of them and no bad whatsoever. dont criticize others jus cuz u dont see a point in them  anyways, to answer the topic question (which was what is the best camera, not what is the point of them ) any that you attach to your license plate. its at bumper level which is good for parallel parking, if you use it for hookin a trailor hitch, etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zeller Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 I've just recently had a Boyo attached and the picture quality is great. The only time it is poor is if you are in complete darkness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

zeller Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I have a Boyo VTL400. Sorry I have no picture, but it mounts across the top of the license plate. They also have the same camera that is mounted into a full license plate frame. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
V8Monaro Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Do these Boyo camera switch on automatically when you select reverse? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zeller Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Yes they do, but keep in mind I had mine installed by a professional at the same time I had a stereo put in so I'm not able to give you specs on how to wire it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CatchMeIfYouCan631 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 im sure it comes with an installation guide Quote Link to post Share on other sites
