I finally had some time to install the LCD mirror and rear view cam I bought a few weeks ago. I bought it from a company called Visor View (store.visorview.com) and they had a few different solutions for me. I changed my mind after it was delivered and they were awesome about exchanging stuff, no hassles and I got exactly what I wanted.
I wound up with a Gentex LCD mirror which has a 2.4" screen and a Sony camera with an extremely OEM looking mount. I'm big on factory look so it was essential that it looked like it came that way. Gentex makes all the OEM mirrors too so its auto dimming and you cannot see the LCD when its off, period..... Very trick piece!
Now for the install and how it all came together.
Tools required:
Flat bladed prying tool like a 1" putty knife
Phillips Screwdriver
T-20 Torx Screwdriver
Electrical Tape
Tie Wraps
10mm Socket
Multimeter or Test Light
Drill
7/8" (22mm) hole saw
3/16" Drill bit
1/4" drill bit
Alcohol pads
Wire Crimper/Stripper
~36" solid 12ga wire
Tying Twine
Dremel with Cut-off wheel
Diagonal Cutters
Ready Kids?
