silveradojeff Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 hey silveradojim, im guessing you also have a silverado. I have purchased a small camera and am thinking about putting it in the tailgate protector lip thing. There is already a good angle on it. i think it will give me a good view of my hitch and far enough beyond that to be useful. im not sure when im gunna be able to install it but when i do ill let ya know. I was also thinking about installing it in the tailgate handle bezel, but then im afraid i wont be able to see close enough behind the truck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm guessing that you got a camera that goes in from the front? I don't see a way of getting to the back of (inside) the tailgate to put on a rear plate or bezel. Have you solved that part of the equation? If so, what camera are you using and where did you get it if you don't mind me asking? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

crease-guard Posted September 25, 2006 Report Share Posted September 25, 2006 I bought a camera from the same buyer, I got the 50ft infrared night vision one there on the far right. I mounted mine between the bumper and bottom of tail gait. It use clears when opening and closing the gate. I still have to hook it (and the other camera) into the AVIC but I'm hoping it works out for me. Jay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
