Re: Rear Door

Hi Freddie 

You could just mount a camera on the rear rather than buying a door with camera.

Of course you would need to place a correct size hole for mounting the camera.

Theres many after market units that you can marry upto Din suze unit stereos ie. Yours being a 99' w463.... if you have a flip out camera from the old days... or you could fit a small screen rear view mirror that has a screen built in that unit..

Cheers

Goochie

old, slow website. it is not obvious when you post the topic (no egg timer), so i just clean the duplicates out.  It takes about 45secs for a new post to complete.

Re: Rear Door

Agree with the add on approach.

Some Dashcams now come with rear-view camera (bluetooth connected), so you get a loop recording and it includes the rear view.
