Flush Mount rear view camera
I looked at the Kenwood ccd-2000 and other types of back-up cameras to hook up to a DNX5140, but decided to try a flush-mount one I found on ebay because it was a much cheaper price. I know, “you get what you pay for”… but my questions are this…
1)Has anybody installed a flush mount? If yes, where? It’s 1 1/8” diameter, so I was thinking possibly below the lic plate center or to the left or right inside the lic plate décor trim piece.
2)The cheap camera I’m getting only has two wires: a hot and grd. The Kenwood CCD2000 I looked at has a third (purple\wht) wire that connects to the reverse lights, so it can appearently turn on automatically in reverse but also viewable manually. Since I only have the TWO wires (hot and grd), is there a way I might be able to wire this camera so it still works both ways or will I have to choose just one option or the other (auto on or manual)??
