Many appreciate its ease of use and the helpful visibility it provides when backing up. While some users noted that the parking lines could be improved and resolution could be higher, the positive feedback on image clarity and ease of installation outweighs these concerns.

    If you have or are considering buying a CarPlay device to upgrade your radio/GPS capabilities, I strongly recommend you consider this extra option of a back up camera for your vehicle! I was not totally sold on the need for this device, but was given pros and cons by my Best Buy tech, and decided to complete my CarPlay Package with this camera. It automatically shifts your cars display when you put your vehicle in reverse and it is truly an amazing display. It has been helpful in my judging available back up distances I can go in reverse safely, but also gives accurate spacing when determining width in back up spaces! I put this together with my Kenwood DMX 7709S and it works terrific with my complete car upgrade that I have recently done. If you have an older vehicle(like my 2009 Honda) I recommend you consider adding this to your installation package, which Best Buy does a super job doing when you order the CarPlay installation service! Best Buy overall did a and outstanding job wiring the back up camera in addition to my CarPlay system, and I am very pleased with my cars upgrade!

    All About Expectations

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This camera is pretty good for a $80 camera. It lets you add back-up camera functionality to even older cars. The picture quality is decent. It's obviously not going to be as good as a factory one but those don't cost $80 either. There is no night vision built in so it's dark at night. However, with headlights and backup lights on, there is enough light (at least on my car) to see so you don't hit anything. Overall, this was good for the price. Not sure about reliability so only time will tell.

    Our Installer Set Us Straight

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We were installing a Pioneer radio receiver which had back-up cam capability. Yet the reviews we read for all of the cameras for that radio had quite a few negative comments. So we decided to go with the rearview mirror back-up cam. And we bought it. When we went to our installer with all of our equipment, he was perplexed at why we bought a radio with back-up cam capability and then we bought a rearview mirror back-up camera. We explained about all of the negative reviews we had seen for all of the brands of cams for our radio. And he said not to pay too much attention to negative reviews. He said he personally had used the Metra back-up cam and it was a great product. He suggested exchanging the two reaview cameras and spend the money we were saving to buy a better radio. So that's what we did. And boy are we glad! Great price and a great camera. So now I agree with the installer. Too many negative reviewers have some reason for saying what they say besides problems with the product they are bashing. The price for this camera is very reasonable and it does a perfect job for us as we back up. We just got home a few minutes ago and used it while we were out and we LOVE it. Thank you to the great Best Buy installers in Gastonia, NC for the great advice on the back-up cam and the radio. You made a believer out of us!
