Description

About the Ford Transit Custom brake light reversing camera

When somebody wants a reversing camera for a van, the most popular option these days is a brake light reversing camera. This is because of the following reasons:

  • Easy to fit because it uses the original location and fixing method that has already been installed by the manufacturer
  • No sealant required, as the new brake light reversing camera housing is fitted with a seal which is mechanically compressed against the original location of the old brake light
  • The reversing camera is tidy and "factory look"

The reversing camera installed in this brake light camera has a ball design that has a very small adjustment up/down using a friction lock mechanism, it should be noted that this doesn't allow it to be angled to face upwards enough to view down the road as a driving camera.

The camera has been fitted with a 4 pin connector, which in the industry is widely considered to be the best connector. If you are using a phono connector monitor/stereo then we can provide adaptors, please see the drop down menu to order.

The camera is waterproof up to IP68.


What vehicle does this brake light reversing camera fit?

Ford Transit Custom with LED brake light 2012-May 2016

FAQ'S

Our reverse camera will fit the same location/entry point as the original brake light. The original lights bulb will be inserted into the new brake light reverse camera to keep the high-level brake light working well.

There could be a number of reasons they may be cheaper than us, the most common are below :

  • Rejected Production Runs - This is more common on the marketplaces where there are a lot of non-UK businesses (although the stock is often in the UK). When one of the larger factories produces a camera they will age-test a batch to ensure that the quality is sufficiently high to be able to send to their big customers (like us). If a production run fails this test with a high enough number having issues, the whole batch is often sold off for "recycling" the components. Sadly, these get placed in a container setting sail to the UK and other destinations, and eventually listed on a marketplace at crazy low prices - lower than we can buy hundreds at a time for. Sometimes you are lucky, sometimes you are not, depending on how badly the batch failed.
  • Cheaper Components Used - There are different standards of image sensor, support chips, lenses and camera bodies. We opt for better quality; the results speak for themselves. We didn't earn our reputation by buying as cheap as we could; it's not what our customers want. Although at the same time we really do keep our prices as low as possible. The cheaper prices help us to sell more volume, which means we can bring the cameras in by ocean shipping, saving freight costs, which we pass to the consumer.
  • Produced by a "Factory for the day" - We have seen some shocking quality cameras sent to us over the years by customers. There is a phenomenon in China where someone can rent factory space for a day or two in order to complete a production run. Often this is a factory employee that is trying to go it alone and start his own business. Sadly, they don't often have the best engineers, they usually buy the lowest price/quality components, have the lowest standard of production line worker, and they can't afford to reject a bad production run. These usually either end up on a Marketplace or sold directly from a Chinese website.

In short, trust us to find the best quality and support you for safety and peace of mind.
