Backup Camera
I am looking for a wireless backup camera. Anyone know where I can get one. Please save your time and don't tell me to get a new audio system with the capability. Thanks

I installed a cheap one off Amazon. Cost me about $110. Its not wireless though. The camera was about $28. The HD Monitor about $60. Then wiring and switch for the monitor and switch for the camera and electrical connectors maybe around $20 max.

The least expensive and easiest way to go is to get one built into the plate frame that connects to your mobile phone via Bluetooth for the video. Otherwise you'll need to mount a monitor - whether it's a standalone screen or one built into your rearview mirror.

None of the wireless ones are really worth a damn in my experience. If you don't want to get an audio setup (which, aside from the up-front cost I have no idea why anyone wouldn't), your next option is to replace the rear view mirror with one that has a camera built in and run the wiring across the windshield and down the side of the car.
These are on sale right now and seem to be decent based on the reviews. No first hand experience, though.
