Hi Rob

I have fitted Radioguys (Seans) Wireless Rear Camera with great results.

Most people seem to fit it using one of the number plate light fittings. The camera base has a translucent base the light shines through. However I was not that Keen.

I prefered to fit mine in the central position, between the two number plate lights. It Looks much better to me in the central position. Regards the area of picture shown on screen I would see no point in adding an extra camera.

However there are one or two mods to make this possible.

Firstly, after removing all the plinth fittings, you will find you have to drill extra hole through boot to enable camera cables to go through. The hole needs to be large enough to be able to pass the banana plugs for the camera (one by one). The other tricky bit is you also have to drill a similar hole through the actual plinth circuit board, again to get cables through This can be tricky because you have to avoid the two printed circuits tracts that connect the two rear lamps.

It is a bit of a fiddle, but the finished result looks much better and more balanced the having camera over one light.
