Just installed this for an old coworker who has an older Corolla. I bought the matching iBEAM backup camera, looks like iBEAM is a Metra brand which I like. I've installed these types of backup cameras before back before our cars came with them, so installation was a breeze for me. I like that this just plugs into the cigarette lighter outlet for power.
No issues so far, works exactly as it should. I used to pay a lot less for these rear view mirror screen clip ons, but the price is still reasonable. It's the perfect solution for an older car that you don't want to spend a ton of money for.
Be aware that there is considerable glare during the day - it's a mirror after all. You learn to adjust how you look at it and set your expectations accordingly. Night time is no problem. If your windows are tinted, that also helps. Picture quality is on par with the similar products I've purchased in years past. This mirror clips onto your old one so it transmits/amplifies vibration as your car idles, so just be aware of that. It's one of the sacrifices of this type of backup camera setup but I'd take this over none at all, that's for sure!

Purchase for a Jeep Cherokee that does not have a backup camera. Install was easy!
The mounting of the monitor is easy, but make sure you place the correct side up. The directions do not explain it well, but the arms extend and grip firmly.
The picture is not very bright but is clear. The mirror has no lines when the monitor is off and does not hinder the use of the mirror. Cables are thin, use caution not to damage them.

The iBEAM 4.3" LCD Monitor with Clip-On Mount in Black is an excellent addition to any vehicle. I recently purchased this monitor for my car, and I have been extremely satisfied with its performance.
First and foremost, the 4.3" LCD screen provides a clear and crisp display. The colors are vibrant, and the resolution is impressive. Whether I am using it for reversing my car or simply watching videos, the screen quality is top-notch.
The clip-on mount is a fantastic feature of this monitor. It allows for easy installation and removal, making it convenient for me to take it off when I don't need it. The mount is sturdy and holds the monitor securely in place, even when driving on bumpy roads. I appreciate the flexibility it provides in terms of adjusting the monitor's position to suit my viewing preferences.
One of the standout features of this iBEAM monitor is its compatibility with various devices. It has multiple inputs and outputs, including AV input, AV output, and a built-in speaker. This versatility allows me to connect my DVD player, gaming console, or even a rearview camera, making it a multifunctional device.
Another aspect that impressed me about this monitor is its durability. The build quality is solid, and it feels like a well-made product. I have been using it for a few months now, and it has withstood daily use without any issues. The black color gives it a sleek and modern look, blending seamlessly with the interior of my car.
Lastly, the price of the iBEAM 4.3" LCD Monitor with Clip-On Mount is reasonable compared to similar products on the market. Considering its excellent performance, durability, and versatility, I believe it offers great value for the price.
In conclusion, I highly recommend the iBEAM 4.3" LCD Monitor with Clip-On Mount in Black. Its impressive screen quality, convenient clip-on mount, compatibility with various devices, durability, and reasonable price make it an excellent choice for anyone in need of a reliable car monitor.

The backup mirror/camera is very small and uncomplicated. It is inexpensive and was installed by Beat Buy Geek Squad. The installer was very helpful in helping me to make the purchase and installation. The view is very small, but quite clear. It has helped me in backing up in my van, which is difficult to see on the passenger side. A larger more elaborate, expensive backup camera would be better, of course, but this is helpful.

This is exactly what I needed due to the fact that I can't obstruct the view on my windshield with a dash mounted screen. I bought this on clearance as an opened box item assuming that the previous purchaser didn't really understand what this is. It's just a monitor. It is NOT a dash cam and this does NOT include a camera. This is a monitor ONLY and it is NOT wireless. But if you have the ability to wire a camera into your vehicle, it works quite well for the purpose it serves.
