    Rear camera options B7

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I'm looking to fit a Pioneer AVH 4100 Nex, but having difficulty deciding which rear camera to purchase.
    The ECS tuning camera kit doesn't seem to be available any more.
    Most replacement ideas using original newer model parts seem more appropriate to RNS option.
    There are lots of fake standard type cameras that use a license plate light slot, but I haven't found a thread indicating that anyone has taken the plunge? Many of these cameras also list specs of CCD, 170 degrees, and night vision... so enticing!
    Thoughts?

    Apologies for the rookie mistake.
    I posted the same thread twice, can a moderator please delete one... I can't find how to.

    I have a cheap $20 ebay licence plate bulb one. It works pretty well, I am sure it could be better for more money.

    This was the sort of thing I was thinking of....

    Has anyone used one from a site like this?
    They say CCD, 170 degrees, and some say night vision, but how good is it really... reviews are all over the place!

    Buy it ...don't get the license plate ones ... It will make your light pattern all wonky on plate.

    The night vision isn't very good on the $20 ones but day time it is a very clear pic.

    I'm going to be buying one of the eBay plate bulb ones with my pioneer 4000nex. Worked great in my mk5 and its pretty hard to beat for 25 bucks....
