Had I seen those cameras before I did my conversion, I'd have gone that route. |

This looks really good to me and I'm going to give it a punt. Just wondering, would the picture angle be better/different if I tried to mount a similar type camera under the rear spoiler like the 2005 on models? |

I don't think it works that well under the spoiler. The angle of the boot lid means it masks the last foot or so up to the bumper, so if you need it for tight parking or in my case reversing up to a trailer without smashing the bumper, I wanted to see all the way to the ball/bumper

Aha! I don't understand the plate number system. It's much easier for us foreigners when you use model years. Ron B. VK2OTC 2004 L322 V8 Auto 2007 Yamaha XJR1300 Previous: 1983, 1986 RRC; 1995, 1996 P38A; 1995 Disco1; 1984 V8 County 110; Series IIA |

So, does this mean my 53 plate should be plug and play? As in, just get a reversing camera and all the necessary connections are in the boot ready to connect? Or am I being a bit optimistic here? |

^ Your car is easier to install a camera, but it is a little more involved than just plug and play...

Or you could do what I did and fit a dash cam in the rear, the angle would be better too. I have since modified the use also with added cameras in the horse box while on the move, inside to see how they travel and at the back of the trailer. If it dont work.......burn it! If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF. If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser! If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !! |

Bud it's not rocket science, I managed to do it!! There are a number of places that you can fit a camera.. I went for a BMW X5 camera that replaces the number plate lamp... but having seen how the camera is positioned and type used in this post, I think I'd use this method... for a kick off the cameras are half the price!! The only really tricky bit is adding the 3 connections to the 2 plugs on the TV tuner... the rest is wiring up a relay! I used a solder type... a, because I'm a tight git and hate spending unnecessary dosh, and b, a solder joint is better than a crimp... but go with which ever you are most comfortable with! I can help with descriptions and possible diagrams on 'how to' anything you are not sure about, But the only thing that I might find difficult is pictures, as I no longer have an L322... But I do have limited access to a pals that I did! Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!
