Sorry but no pics of the install. I bought the monitor and camera off ebay. The hardest part was installing the camera because I had to pull the interior trim off the rear hatch, then secured my wiring using the same path Ford used.
This is the camera -
Silver Car Rear View CCD 170 Front Back Forward Camera Reverse Backup Parking | eBay. I picked this one becaue it was Chrome and seemd like a good match to the trim where I installed it. if you look closely it is tilted a little bit to make up for the fact that is is off to the side a little. I used the green, yellow, red lines that are displayed to line in up to a know strainght object nad what litle of the bumper I could see.
This is the monitor -
480 x 272 4 3" inch TFT LCD 2 CH Video Input Color TFT Car Rear View Monitor | eBay. I picked this one because the controls were on the front, it's size and that it has 2 video inputs. I use the other input for a camera I installed on the back of my 25 travel trailer (
CCD Rear View Backup Camera Bus RV Truck Trailer Heavy Duty Aviation Connector | eBay). I have not had the chance to use the one on the TT yet on the road.
The monitor has switched power so it will only come on when the ignition is on and also it is designed to not come on unless there is a video input available. The camera on the truck is wired into the reverse lights and will only come on when in backing up. The one on the camper stays on all the time so I can see whats going on behind me when I drive. As far as I cna tell there is no way to switch inputs, It is automatic.
I do wish I could have used a larger monitor but I wanted it to disapear when not in use.
The video cable that came with the truck camera was just long enough to get ot he back of the truck. I had to purchase an extension to run to the hatch.
The trailer camera uses a 4 pin cable, which was perfect to run under the trailer. The cable provided was long enough to run from the top down the side, to the front and into the truck. From there I use a set of adapters (
4pin M12 Aviatic Male Female to BNC RCA Male Female DC Power*male Female Cable | eBay and
1M BNC Male to RCA Male Cable for CCTV Security Camera System | eBay) to go from the 4 pin cable to the video and power. I made an adapter to go from the red power plug to a 12vdc plug to use the power point in the back to power it.
Here are a couple of pics of the camera on the camper. The cable goe up to the roof, across to the left, down behind the white rubber trim to the bottom and then ran it along the frame to the front.
