Perfect Front Camera

If you are trying to install a front camera on a truck or car. This is the camera you are looking for! Parking assistance or guidelines are optional. Reverse image is optional. The picture is excellent. Admittedly, when I first hooked it up to my TV to play around with it; the image was wavy and downright lousy. I used a Radio Shack 3.5A 12V power supply for, say, a CB radio or something. I knew the lines were due to some sort of feedback from either the power supply or the TV, so it didn't bother me that much. Once I installed it on my truck it worked great! I am very happy with it. Another regular license plate camera had a good picture, but the picture was upside down and I couldn't focus it enough to see the front edge of my front bumper either. You must use this as a reference. The camera doesn't seem to be the most reliable so I put a bead of rtv silicone around where the cable enters the case just to be on the safe side. I think everything will be fine. It's very small and unobtrusive. You can hardly notice it. Look at the photo, in general I am satisfied. I needed a camera that could easily eliminate the guide lines and inverted image; and it fits the bill! Simply leave three wires (red, white, blue) separate from each other (see photo).
