Default Front Camera....

So this winter I go a new stereo that had a front camera input so......................... I got a $10.00 cheap one of ebay and installed it why not.
It helps to not park to close to things and I can check out roadkill and gross out my grandkids, win win

How many folks have front cameras.

The stereo is a Boss 7 inch with a XM receiver where the ashtray would be so I can close the lid and hide it.

I have the cobra road scout, dash cam+radar detector all in one. It’s expensive, free to me because it was a gift. Excellent product, but the downloadable apps suck. I’m at work for 24 hours, I’ll get a picture tomorrow.

Looks fairly decent for $10, very nice. Can you post some pictures of where you mounted the camera.

I will take a Pic and post it after work, I put mine under the car. If it gets killed I will put it in front by the plate like where you put yours.
I like that look

That's a fantastic location if it doesn't get destroyed.

Could also easily attach it to the black plastic moulding inside the grille there. The moulding has 3 or 4 screws holding it in and is easily removed for the camera to be mounted to it.
