Purchase PYLE PLCM36 3.5'' Slim TFT LCD Universal Mount Monitor w/ License Plate Mount Rearview Night Vision Backup Camera

Over All Rating Reviews :

This Pyle PLCM36 3.5" TFT LCD Backup Camera and Monitor is my first backup camera system purchase. Vision behind my Dodge Sprinter HighTop van is poor because of my wheelchair lift. I have a friend who had an after market backup system in her Toyota Tacoma for $500+. The display (monitor) in her Toyota is in the center of the mirror. Her Toyota uuit is no doubt "better quality" although she could find or produce any specs for her camera or mirror monitor. Seeing her system sent me on a search for my own backup system.

I think this unit, camera and monitor, are as good as her Toyota install setup.

The PLCM36 system is wired to be activated and display what the camera sees when you put your vehicle in reverse. The camera is wired to connect to the hot 12v wire connecting to your backup lights. I opted to wire the camera and monitor through the fuse block and have both come on and stay on as long as the key is inserted into the ignition. It functions as a backup monitor and a rear view display while you drive. Default installation of the camera bracket is on the license tag. I mounted mine behind the rear bumper of the van with the camera peeking through a 3/4" hole in the bumper. A thief can destroy the camera but not steal it without calling attention to him/herself. It makes for a very clean, almost invisible installation.

The camera bracket is plastic. I thought it would be metal but it's not. I had to shim mine up as the plastic is too brittle to bend forward to far. Don't consider bending it unless you heat it.

I had it wired as "always on" because my wheelchair lift is in the rear of my van. It blocks 85 to 90% of the rear windows. With the PYLE backup system one can see directly behind and with the fisheye effect of the camera lense to the left and right of the van approximately 20 degrees.

My monitor is mounted on the dash above and right of the steering wheel next to a hump in the dash above the instrument panel. The display isn't quite as obvious in my situation as maybe in others. Currently it is attached with the double sided sticky pad included. I have intentions of changing this to a velcro attachment. Power and Video to the monitor connect via RCA phono plugs. It will be easy enought to remove and unhook to be locked in the glove box or taken out.

The monitor has a second Video input for DVD players, GPS systems (if a second Video out is included), etc.

Knowing what I know now I would have purchased a larger monitor - a 5" or 7".

There is no stretching or squaty distortion to the display. I'm perfectly satisfied with my PLCN36 and highly recommend it.
