Bad Decision

If the license plate bracket on the Wrangler is adjusted too far to the left, it means you will always see a crooked image when reversing. This is not optimal for security reasons. I replaced the block with the one mounted behind the spare wheel. I have reused this camera but I will also replace it because the quality is pretty bad. It takes a long time to plug in so don't do it twice so get a center mounted device and only plug it in once.

Easy to install and looks good so far

Pretty easy to install. Came with lots of wiring and was very basic. A little more space could have been used, as you can see in the picture. The plastic between the light diffuser and the camera area doesn't open wide enough for a standard plastic license plate frame case, but I suspect it will be the same for most of them. It doesn't quite match the clip like I'd like, but I'm not complaining about the price and simplicity of it all.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Updates available

Imprint for car electronics

Today I installed a reversing camera for eway license plate. Overall, the 2017 Wrangler with factory audio took about two and a half hours to complete. If you're handy, it's worth the effort. To make this work I also bought a radio camera adapter from Amazon for the back of a Chrysler radio, a Bluetooth OBD2 adapter from Amazon and a JScan license via iOS for my Jeep Vin code. Installing the camera is easy enough after watching a YouTube video or two and searching the web for manuals. Overall…

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Maybe I just misunderstood.

Good to begin with. Wiring was easy to connect, camera is nice and clear, nice factory look. $25 so you can try it. The problem is that the port is molded too small to fit in the factory case. I spent about 10 minutes on the file to get it working, it was pretty tight, but then it was time to work. The clip on the passenger side is still not attached. Need some clearance. If it works I'll update this eventually, but I don't see any need to do it at all so I can give a better overview than I…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Nice design, wish it was better.

The camera works well. The image is a bit grainy but works well enough that I can see what's behind me. I love that it's a custom design to fit my Wrangler. The only thing that makes me deduct a star is that it's not quite what it should be. The channel that is supposed to run down the side of the lantern is too narrow and doesn't quite fit. It's plastic, so all I had to do was twist and wiggle it a bit while pushing down on the locking tabs with a flathead screwdriver to get it snapping in…

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Not satisfied with everything

Good but could be MUCH better

This was installed in 1 day so durability has not been rated. I will let you know if there are any problems. I chose this camera because I like the location, it looks close to the factory and I already have a stock LED brake light which I didn't want to swap out for a camera. The installation instructions are terrible, and the two items I needed weren't even mentioned on Revain or in the instructions. If you are installing a factory radio in your Wrangler, you will need an RCA adapter. You will

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some minor issues

Crystal clear picture and easy installation

Despite mixed reviews I bought this unit because of where and how it is installed. I was thinking of a camera in the spare tire but that seemed to be a wiring issue. It would be possible, but I just didn't want to mess with it. I paired this camera with a Sony ax5000 (which also gets 5 stars from me). Installation was pretty easy once you understand the basics of wiring. The JK wiring is a little wobbly on the rear light. Everything online for 2016 was wrong. But a bit of trial and error led me

Great addition to my Jeep and was easy to install.

Perfect solution for my OEM radio and was very easy to install.

Tools needed: - Phillips screwdriver - Trim remover - Pliers - Ratchet set Install on my Jeep: 1. Remove the driver's side taillight and license plate bracket2. Replace the…

It's okay. Because the Wrangler JK's license plate is off-center, the wire had to be cut to remove the "lead lines" from the image. Also, when I first installed the camera, there was a lot of distortion or electrical noise on the screen. I originally gave a 2 star review because of these concerns, but the seller contacted me and said I needed to cut the green wire for NTSC/PAL mode. After that, most distortions disappeared. I have attached two pictures; before and after cutting the green wire…
