Gussa Donating Members 220 Member For: 13y 11m 10d Gender: Male Location: Gippsland Posted 26/10/11 09:34 AM Share Posted 26/10/11 09:34 AM Is there a video input in the back of the ICC or something? The only reversing camera option I got from the dealer was another screen (similar to a GPS) mounted to the window - wasn't too keen on that idea.

piston broke Member 2 Member For: 13y 3m 11d Gender: Male Posted 30/10/11 11:02 AM Share Posted 30/10/11 11:02 AM I had dealer fitted sensors (4 off) to an XR5 which worked pretty well once I was familiar with the range of these. Current car has an ebay type camera that cost $45 with the infra red vision plugged into a double DIN head unit. Camera hasn't worn that well, some moisture got behind the lens cover (plastic) and clouded it, but is still useable . Partially my fault for not cleaning it up sooner. With the sensors once they got dirty they would become unreliable, they only require a quick wipe over to restore performance. If it was a decision of one or the other I would go with the sensors, but if you can incorporate both - all the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brazam Donating Members 42 Member For: 13y 5m 13d Gender: Male Posted 17/11/11 06:18 AM Share Posted 17/11/11 06:18 AM I had a camera fitted when I took delivery of my 2011 fg, its the one they offer on the ford site, for me its handy to know if thou are going to hit something that is low lying but it is was too wide angled and very hard to judge how far away you are from things. Ive thought I was a couple of meters from a pole only to look out my mirror and crap my sacks as I was right on top of it. Im still thinking of going the sensors as well.

Or do they give you another screen?The only one I can find is this (2nd last listing on that page): http://www.ford.com....apper&site=FOA#If this is the one you have (mounted to a mirror), can you please post up a pic, I am interested in seeing what they look like.

Bloody cheap too compared to what you use to have to pay on the B series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 50ths came with Premo... but Utes didn't come with reversing cameras ... I don't get it. That's why I am wondering if the ICC's have an input and I'll install my own :sungum: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
