Looking for ideas on an inexpensive method to purchase and install backup camera system in converted MC-7. Back windows of mine are blanked out (covered with sheet aluminum). Anybody tried installing in Engine door Licence Plate Housing? TOYS-R-US black and white baby moniter $150.00 comes with camera and small black and white tv runs on 120volt/12vdc adapter (I threw the adapter out and wired it in directly to the coach system ) you have to open the TV and reverse the blue and yellow wires going to the picture tube( this reverses the picture so you get a true mirror image)then you open the camera housing and turn it upside down and reinsert it(you must clip off a small plastic tab with side cutters to make it go back in smoothly)then just wire both ends into your 12vdc onboard system for power (no wires to run because its wireless) also has a nite switch for better visibility at nite.My wife found out that during extremely sunny episodes she could place a old sunglass lens in front ofthe camera for a polorized effect. (this conversion is easier than it sounds.

Anybody tried installing in Engine door Licence Plate Housing? Rod I aquired a small colored 12 volt tv, reversed the yoke with a switch hooked it to an older camcorder that was no longer operable ie the tape part was broken anyway and it seems to work just fine although I have not installed it yet. Total cost $55.00 Good Luck ---Larry B.
