JBone Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has installed a backup camera on a Ford F150. Any bumps in the road? Where did you come in with the cable? On another note, how does everyone feel about a 2.4Ghz wireless back up camera? Any input is appreciated. -JBone Quote Link to post Share on other sites
offroaderf150 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 go with a wired one. when i had my 06 f150, i ran it through the large grommet that is above the gas/brake pedal. if you look near the brake booster, in the engine compartment, you will see it. i ran it along the frame rails and ziptied it to the factory wiring. get a nice creeper and you'll be able to do it fine. little tip.....wear safety goggles!! i offroaded in my f150 a lot so a lot of dirt kept falling in my face...the googles worked!

JBone Posted January 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 Thanks for your reply! Is there an ACC wire near the camera? How did you power it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
offroaderf150 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 i ran a power wire with the rca and powered it with the acc from behind the radio. just tape them together and then run both wires in split loom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
