Help - locations for mounting reverse / rear view camera
Looking for options to install a reversing camera. There is no room to install it as Wiggs did as I have the white trailer plug in this location.
Ideas and photos would be appreaciated

do you need to see the road behind you or just the bumper / towbar. I have mine mounted in the rear tailgate handle.Duncan

I definitely want to use it for reversing and lining up a trailer but being able to see a wide angle behind would be very useful. I haven't purchased the camera yet so thought I really needed to make up my mind about mounting options before I purchase.

if its just for close vision reversing and hooking up then - as per BCB photos. From that position you can reverse up to the tow hitch, raise the suspension and hitch up all in on go. Most impressive 8)
It also make it easy to get into and out of tight spaces.
I bought one similar to this :
