Default Which backup Camera should I buy and where?

Ordered my lockpick and wanted to put in a backup camera at the same time. Prices range from 30 to 120.

I couldn't figure out which model most people are using, so please let me know where you got it and paid.

Looking for good color and picture. The smaller the better also.

Thanks

The Boyo look nice, little big, but am thinking will put it in the trailer hitch. Just need to figure out how to install it inside it.

Thanks

I have the Helios HV-BUC1 which I got because of its wide angle view, but you can't beat the value of a couple that are available on ebay.

Run a search for backup cameras, several members here recommend it and provide a listing number.

I got one off of ebay recently and installed it in the bumper last week, make sure you get one that is ccd, weather proof and has night vision. I ordered a plain one first by mistake and am waiting for the new one to arrive.

I bought both my front and rear view cam from these guys Very well built and durable products and another member here bought from them as well and he was just as satisfied. Contact Miss Kerry and she'll be more than happy to help. I bought model DF-8088 which is a 1/4" sharp color CCD for front and rear view installation and the price was $29 USD each. PM me if you need more info
