backup camera install - anyone do it?

[paradigm]

I am going to install a double din apple car play / android auto radio in the car. I may as well run a backup camera since the interior is partially out.

Anyone do the install, and if so where did they mount the camera? Any pics?

Thanks

Universal mount cameras are usually mounted on the license plates.

Atleast on a '81-'88 Monte, I have thought of getting one mounted against where the lock retainer is rivited to the trunk lid. Just haven't what would donate a camera.

I installed a Thinkware X700 in my car. It has front and rear cameras and GPS. It was $156 on Amazon in 2022. The rear camera is small and just sticks on the rear glass inside the car. The GPS is nice because it records your speed so you can prove that you weren't speeding or weaving or breaking any other laws. I guess that could be a bad idea in some cases! Years ago, I had a cop follow me through a 25 mph zone for over two miles at 1 am. He was so close that I couldn't see his headlights in my mirror. Nothing happened, but I'm prepared for the next time.
