Bumping this because I too would like to see more pics of different cameras..etc.

 

I just ordered a Crime Stopper SV-5110 Bar camera:

no no, this thread was supposed to be about what the drivers view looks like, not what the camera looks like!

 

you can find camera pics on google, but how the camera view looks through the avic-- this i have not seen yet, hence this thread!

Oh...in that case refer to the first post...that's what my screen looks like...

I think if you post you should do both, what the camera looks like and the output.

 

I can't stand doing google searches for stuff like that because everyone calls it something different or it's not correct information...etc.

Also should list what camera you have... I know I would have benifited from seeing a thread with different cameras/outputs! :-)

 

I like the tailgate camera.. looks cool!

I added one in the front as well as the back. How did you fix it from being mirrored? What I mean is one someone in the front walks on the left side I will see him on my z2 on the right. It's mirrored and is tailored for the back. I would really love to fix this. I will post a pic of my backup camera next time.

Mine is mirrored because it's in the tailgate. Why would you mount one in the front?

 

Some cameras have the ability to reverse the image, however, if your camera is made for a back-up purpose you probably won't be able to adjust that.

I want to see my front blind spot.

I am thinking of putting one on the front of my Hummer, because my wife complains she can't see to park my car. She says she can't tell how close she is to small cars. I would think this would help.

Posted Apr 27, 2008 · 18:39 UTC#11

someone post pics of the AVIC view of other cameras please!

 

Save this thread!

bridge4d, NICE MOUNT!

 

Where u get the keyhold camera... was it easy to remove your existing keyload and mount the camera in there?

 

Wondering what it would look like on my Mustang

I got the camera at Fry's, http://shop4.outpost.com/product/5340908. The mount was real easy, the camera came with it's own drill bit. I popped the tailgate handle open, removed the key lock, used the supplied drill bit to open up the hole and then just screwed in the camera. Took about 10 minutes.

Gotta love fry's !

 

Talk about kid in a candy store (wife cringes when I even say the word)!

Thanks for this bridge4d,

 

I was narrowing down which cam to get for my F-150 and trashed both choices, because I did a mulch run on saturday and found that since my bed is shorter than the dump bucket, I get a pile of overage that lands right on top of the bumper where the tag sits.

Also when I opened the gate, I found that I got a flood of mulch that sits itself right on top of the frame where the Pioneer cam would mount :?

Good to see I have options 8)

BTW- your link didn't work for me, so I'll post this one http://shop4.outpost.com/product/5340908#detailed to see if it works.

Here is the BC-2 on a trailblazer. Disregard the bike rack that is in the middle of the pic

Looks good!

 

How do you have it mounted?

 

I see that pioneer supplies double sided tape but that just worries me as I feel some asshat would come by and try to rip it off...

It is just on with double back tape. If needed I could put a screw in there. Unless you really look for it you do not see it. I had one of my friends go back there and look for it and he did not notice it there. I have it back an inch or so behind the edge.

Looks nice! I think I'll give that one a try. How easy was the install?

Posted Apr 29, 2008 · 21:22 UTC#21

it didnt seem that hard to install, a friend of mine did most of the work, just took the lock out of my trunk, drilled the hole a little larger, wired it up, and screwed it on. the hardest part is gettin behind my d3, cuz i have to take my whole dash off to get back there.

I have a ND-BC1 is there much difference between the BC1 and BC2 ? BTW, Got a brand new BC1 for sale, $100 if anyone is interested!

Posted Apr 30, 2008 · 02:42 UTC#23

ThisIsTakeSome,

 

I see that it has IR LEDS.. how is it at night?

Do you have to switch it to do night vision or is it automatic? Would it be too much trouble to ask for a night pic :smile: ?

 

Looks good!

 

I will post pics of my camera here in a couple days. getting it tomorrow.

 

Thanks,

-Nigel

The ND-BC2 is adjustable after you set it up. You can change the viewing angle in many directions. You can change the view to a birds eye and back to normal. There are a few other things a I am forgetting I am sure.

Posted Apr 30, 2008 · 04:39 UTC#25

You are confusing the NDBC2 with the NDBC20PA. The BC2 doesn't do any of the things you mention
