Backup Camera

I got a backup camera from amazon.  Pulling the wires through the van was a pain.  But it is nice to have now.  I powered it from the van cigarette lighter so it is always on--a virtual rear view mirror.

I learned how to remove the radio and dash.  Two u shaped pieces of coat hanger suffice to pop the radio out.  Then just remove screws to pull the pocket above radio and or clipboard above.  The cupholder panel is held in with screws and four very strong clips.  So once the screws are out pull hard!

Below is a view of the cupholder panel removed to install the backup camera controller.  Lots of room back there to put stuff.

  1. Where did you mount your back up camera? Our van has a factory installed digital tv antenna on top where a camera would normally go? I want to do the install of a carplay/android play unit with back up camera
