Those that have monitors that clip/stick onto internal rear view mirror - do you leave the monitor there all the time or remove when vehicle is left unattended? Just wondering if they become a target for tea leafs.

Leave on permanently, that one we are getting in just looks like standard interior mirror when reverse is not selected.

SGH, that looks great. Is it practically large enough? Where did you get it from?

Screen is plenty big enough Thumbs Up

Mirror twin monitor is one of these. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorhome-Lorry-...51ae121c93

Only disadvantage is that it clips over existing mirror. Sad

I like that camera. Can you tilt it to change the angle, for reversing upto trailers etc?

Yes it is multi angle there are two small screws to release and adjust. I fitted another camera low down to point at the tow hitch that I have still not fitted Laughing

Or one of these might be better...

Looks good on your wagon; however how would it fit with washer jet, without something being off centre? That would mess my OCD up!

What it really wants to be is something built into the number plate light plinth; and looking OE. Should be easy for someone, with the know how, to fabricate.

One of these would fit in number plate plinth but I prefer camera to be central. I have reverse camera in tailgate handle on my D3 that is offset it's ok but not ideal and on a Defender offset even more.

That's the ticket. I don't have a rear wash nozzle so that should make good use of the hole that's left.
