Rear view camera

Back when I built my SLC & 917 cars (~2011, 2014) for my rear view solution I used a small LCD monitor and backup camera. It was pretty horrible - low resolution, grainy, easily washed out by sun, etc., but something was better than nothing ... I think ... I dunno (it was pretty horrible, lol).

Anyways, it just occurred to me that over the last 15 years video technology has probably improved so I tried out a few new solutions featuring 2.5k and 4k rear cameras and i have to say, yea, technology has definitely improved ... crystal clear images, counterbalance on direct sunlight, etc. ... almost as good as a rear mirror

I ultimately settled on the Wolfbox G900 pro - https://www.amazon.ca/WOLFBOX-G900-PRO-Included-Recording/dp/B0DD78Y3L5?th=1 - since it seemed like it fit the best inside both cars and I like to standardize the equipment i use for simplicity incase i need to repair/etc.

Point being, if you're still using technology from 15 years ago for the camera solution, you should check out what's available today, it's really good (although it doesn't seem like there's many OGs still kicking around)

Thanks for posting this! I need to update my backup screen on my 33 Ford. It’s wireless, but not very good quality
