| I was driving the wife's car tonight and was backing up using the rear view camera and commented on how nice it was and thats what I needed on the Wildcat. She said "so get one". When we got how I went to the Ebay and ordered a back up camera/monitor for the Wildcat. Of course, I was then told I should not be buying things this close to Christmas. Anyway, it's ordered and I will let you know how it works when it arrives and gets installed. |

| Cool deal. I have been looking at those for my truck, but not sure which one would be the best. | |

| Hard wired is best. Some times wireless has electrical interference. | |

The one I went with is hard wired and has a 7" screen! Was only 70.00 so I thought I'd give it a try. I am hoping using it as a rear view mirror won't burn it up too fast. |

| Received the camera and got it installed. The install was not bad but the words to the camera are a PITA. They are so small there is no way to really strip the wire to make a connection. I had to use a lighter to burn the plastic coating off the wire. In the shop the camera is great but when I first took it out in the sun I could not see anything on the screen. I must have had a setting screwed up because after playing with the buttons and letting it warm up a bit, the screen brightened up. I think it will be nice but I really will not know until a real ride. " /> |

| $70 sounds like a great deal. Did it come with everything you need? I want one for my truck. I can't seem to back up to the trailer near as good as I did when I was a kid. | |

| Yes, it came with everything. I found it on Ebay and save a few bucks on this model because it was an opened box. This one is made by Pyle. Install was easy but the directions were somewhat lacking. Here is another one like the one I bought. |

I thought they were all over $150. Haven't looked at them in a while. | |

| The monitor is about the same size as my rear view mirror was and sits nicely in it's place. There is a 2nd video input if you want to watch DVDs. |
