When it comes to buying a reversing camera kit, people have different choices and preferences. Some want a kit with smaller monitors while others prefer those with bigger screens. Well, this is fairly understandable. After all, people are not the same. What John needs for his vehicle is quite different from what his friend Peter requires for his car.
If you're planning to buy a camera kit, then it is advisable that you go to a place that offers a wide variety of choices. This is to ensure that you'll get the kit with a reversing camera monitor that matches your specific requirements. But choosing one from many different monitor types can be quite a challenge and you might be tempted to buy them all. To help you out, here's a few suggestions and recommendations. Let's start with the rearview mirror reversing camera kits.

Camera kits with 4.3" mirror monitors are ideal for those who hate cramped spaces and clutter with a passion. It is also suited for those who own standard-sized cars and sedans. Unlike the monitors in conventional reversing camera kits, the monitor in this particular camera kit can be used to replace the rear view mirror in your car. This basically means that there's no need for you to mount the device on your dashboard. And when the camera is switched off, the mirror monitor can also function as a normal rear view mirror.
Speaking of the dashboard, it is a generally accepted fact that the dashboard is the place where car owners stash away a lot of stuff, like the mobile phone holder, the car's GPS system, and those cute and funny bobble-head figurines. If the clutter doesn't bother you that much and you have more space in your dashboard, you can get a camera kit with a medium-sized monitor instead of rearview mirror reversing camera kits.
Reversing camera kits with 7" monitors are suited for those who own caravans, SUVs, and other similar types of vehicles. As compared to those that come with rearview mirror reversing camera kits, 7" monitors can give you more image details and a better view of what are being captured by the reversing camera since they are bigger.
But if you own a larger vehicle, like a bus or a truck, it makes perfect sense to get a camera kit that features a 9" monitor. Such reversing camera kits can definitely come in handy when reversing and manoeuvring vehicles with lots of blind spots because they can give you huge, crystal-clear rear-view images. Also, a much bigger reverse camera monitor can be connected to up to three cameras, thus, providing you with a better vantage point.

To set up a rear view camera monitor, mount the camera near the number plate, wire its power to the reverse light circuit, and run the video cable or wireless transmitter to the monitor. Power the monitor from a 12 V outlet so the image comes on automatically when you shift into reverse.
Position the reverse camera screen where it’s easy to glance at without blocking the road—most people choose the dashboard or a windscreen mount. A clip-on option over the existing mirror can also give a neat, factory-style finish.
Yes, you can fit a reverse camera for car use to nearly any vehicle. Just select a compatible kit for your car’s size and wiring setup, and ensure it’s mounted securely for a clear, steady view every time you back up.
