Have a look at parkingcameras.com, you'll find a large range to choose from and they are all good quality units. You can probably get a kit from an online auction site for considerably less money but the quality may be dubious and the instructions will be in iffy English or Chinese so you pay your money and cross your fingers.

I just got this on Ebay, the instructions that come with it are useless but they are on the sales site and easy to follow.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

If you have a double DIN head unit (or are considering one) a lot of them will work as a screen for the reversing camera.   We just updated sound system in van to double DIN & added a reversing camera. Screen switches to camera mode in reverse with distance guides.

We didn't want one with a separate screen or wired into a rear view mirror as it'd interfere with the thermal blind when we put it up   Our rear view mirror just lifts off it's mount.

We did exactly that and got the camera installed on the top of the number plate holder, so no drilling high up on van, works brilliantly.
