Wifi backup cameras should work with your ipad sestup. We use the wifi/bluetooth cameras in some of our company vehices (like mine) and they work great.

Yeah the top was cut to allow the iPad to be in that case-type thing. Update is got the iPad in the truck and I love it. No complaints




It sits flush for the dash except for the bottom, I Adjusted the angle on it so it is a lot easier to look at when sitting in the truck

I used an iPad mini, the "case" it's in is an air gizmo, and it is mounted flush
