Back-up Camera
Hey guys I just bought an 05 XLT FX4. In a couple weeks I'm going to install a Pioneer double din head unit and I want to install a back-up camera. I'm looking at purchasing a new tailgate handle with the camera hole in it. I found this one on Ebay:

Can anyone recommend a decent camera that will fit in the hole on the handle? I would like to get it off Amazon or somewhere like that and really not spend more than around $30.

You get what you pay for with cameras. The cheapo ones usually have very low resolution and less features. Site sponsor thecamerasource sells good quality cameras at fair prices...

This is the one I got...

Fit perfectly in the handle. Could be angled up a bit more, but I'm not complaining.
Resolution is fine, and looks good. Its not $400 camera, but I don't need that. It works great, especially for the price.
Here is my thread if your interested...

I ordered the model with the camera built into the badge. Easy installation. Very thorough documentation and accessory parts. The folks who designed and executed on this product deserve major kudos.
As for the coupon code, I searched this forum for 'camera source coupon' and found it in this thread in the final comment:

Good luck with your camera install!
