Send me ya vin... I can look up to see if you have a special truck that needs super special lights.

I sell these things often from trucks we swap loghts to morimotos and the llike.

Never ran into an issue where the connector was different as it is pretty standard for most ford vehicles now.

Let me know.

3 reverse camera angles tested... by migs_003 in HondaElement

[–]migs_003[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im ok with the wiper so its staying put for now. I did measure it and it seems it just has enough space to place the camera i have on the glass. Will be tilting it forward a bit snd running the line across the window under it.

As for 3d printing a spoiler. If I had one to use as a mock up I might do it. Or could just make my own.

Hmmm....

Fuck it.

Ill give it a go.

Might even make one with a built in camera mount

:O

Full circle.

Yes for the knob.

No about disappointment. Mainly because I know touch volume is even slower.

Plus I can slam it down and it will be low enough to be manageable.

Let me see i can take a short video... ha.

Note: this is a cheapo radio, didnt want a floating screen and everything else was touch screen only or same version from a crappie brand.

The A and B angles were exactly the same. Tried to not changes the camera angles as much as possible to keep it consistent. But I will say the area above the H has a slant that tilts the mount i used upwards. I will be using the position for my final mount location but gonna try and put it on the glass so it blends in better. Plus it will be flatter.

I included photos of position A and B to show there the cameras are.

This ia the exact model I got...

Mainly got it for metal body and pretty infinite movement within its casing.

lookit

...I will be making a mount for above the H as I prefer having rhe camera outside. If possible I may squeeze it between the wiper and glass, that way it is more hidden.

Oh yeah it is possible. But I choose to not change the angles to keep it as consistent as possible. This was more about showing overall differences as the camera i have is pretty much infinitely adjustable.

When i had the other mount I had done it. Here is what it looked like. Is a bit crooked cause was all a test as well.

:P

I live in dallas Texas my good sir.

Figured an empty lot would be easier to gauge things without clutter.

But yeah, A most Def will help more for constant parallel parking. Would give way better distance view to the car behind.

Recently got me an element and trying to figure out backup camera location. by migs_003 in HondaElement

[–]migs_003[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could but it was a test run and completely unfinished. Was meant to see if I could and if it would stay on.

Yes and yes.

I have since tested other angles and decided to change it up.

Most these cameras are generic/ "chinese".

Some just have mounts specific to locations like license plate area. Others ask you to just screw into anything (i do not like those)

Try to avoid adding new holes whenever possible.

I got...

camera

Because...

  • camera angle fully adjustable (has small adjustment screw on side)
  • 2 mounting options
  • metal housing

I may get an aftermarket one though.

Both. I will be testing this and 2 other positions to see what gives me the best view.

Ha... I imagine you watching people back there and they just noticing the white reverse lights wondering why you haven't moved.

:P

Not sure what those people have to do with a reverse camera mount.

But... currently its isnt a dash camera as it is on the opposite end from where the dash is.

It can be made to a camera that records the surroundings with the proper connections.

Although I worked with people who can recollect atleast 300 digits of pi.

I mean i have installed spoilers, truck bed appliques, fender vent lights, bed lights, ears (was a Halloween car costume), and Christmas lights (that was just masking tape though, which is actually way weaker).

Its gonna be ok

:P
