About the Reversing Camera Kit with Black Sony Image Sensor Bracket Camera and 7" Slimline Stand Style Monitor
Our reversing camera kit comprises our black bracket camera and our top-quality 7" stand-on-dash monitor. This kit comes with the following advantages :
Choice of Reversing / Rear View - You can choose to make this system a rear view camera kit by selecting the narrow angle lens option. This will give you a more narrow view, which is ideal when pointing backwards down the road, as it give a better more accurate distance perception of following vehicles.
Increased Reversing Safety - Reversing accidents account for almost 25% if all vehicle accidents in the UK. The reverse camera in this kit will help to give greater vision to the driver to help avoid these collisions.
High Resolution 7 inch Display - The monitor uses one of the best performing LCD panels we have seen. It is produced by our highest rated monitor factory, which we have used for many years now.
Rust Proof Stainless Steel Bracket - The rear camera is fitted with a painted stainless steel bracket, which is time-tested to resist rusting - unlike the usual mild steel brackets that are sold elsewhere.
Sony Image Sensor Fitted - The image sensor is the part of the camera that captures the colour/light in order to construct an image. It is one of the most important factors in producing a good quality image. We have a choice of two options when ordering, both are great. You can choose the Sony 811 1/3" CCD or the Upgraded Sony IMX307 1/2.9" AHD 1080P image sensor. Both will give you good colours, resolution, and dynamic range, although the AHD would win in a head to head.
Two Year Guarantee - We guarantee all of the parts in this camera kit to be free from defect/fault for two years after sale. Our fault rate is extremely low, but should you find you are unlucky, we will support you with any replacement parts/repairs.
Easy Fit Cabling - From our easy wire fuse tap/lighter plug options, to our all in one 4 pin cabling that allows the monitor to power the camera whenever you want to view, this reversing camera kit will be easy to wire up.
Upgrade Option - Sony CCD vs Sony AHD 1080P
Recent option, introduced in early 2022
AHD stands for Analogue High Definition - allows long analogue coax cables to be used to transmit high definition digital signal
Increases monitor display resolution by 60% with an IPS panel upgrade
The camera will use an improved Sony 1080P AHD image sensor
You will experience improved dynamic range, more vivid colours, and superior low light level performance
Please note that AHD systems take a little longer to change channels/load up (approx. 2 seconds) vs standard CVBS systems.
Rest assured that whichever option you select, you will have a lovely, good quality image!
On the monitor wiring harness is a 2.1mm DC socket. On the drop down menu of this product, you can select your desired power lead to plug in to this.
The standard hardwiring is supplied with all options, this terminates in a red wire (+12V/+24V), and black wire (earth).
For the ultimate quick install is a lighter plug option. Some people also order this just for the initial setup, before changing to the standard hardwiring/fuse tap.
Fuse taps aka piggyback fuse holders, are the most recent addition to our options. This allows you to "piggyback" off an existing circuit from your fuse box. The most common size fuse found in modern vehicles is the mini blade (size = 10.9mm wide x 16.4mm tall), older vehicles are likely to have the standard blade (size = 19.1mm wide x 18.8mm tall). Download and read our Fuse Tap installation instructions PDF for more information.
Our fuse taps were designed by us, they have a 200cm lead that connects directly to the monitor socket with no soldering / crimping required. There is a black wire with an earth terminal attached - designed to fix to a chassis bolt/screw. This earth wire/terminal can be separated away from the red wire to enable you to find the most convenient ground/earth (although often this is next to the fuse box).
Additional monitor bracket/mount options
We can supply a discounted additional mount/bracket for the monitor when ordered at the same time as the kit. Please see the photo below, and make your selection using the drop down menu above the add to cart button.
See our video below for details about the brackets in the photo above.
Easy-Fit Wiring
We have been using this type of cabling since 2007, and it has performed perfectly in all of this time. It is called the 4 pin aviation cable, and uses what is known as a 4 pin GX12 connector.
This type of connector is very durable, and can be kept outside exposed to rain and freezing temperatures.
It makes fitting easier, and avoids CANBUS issues due to the monitor powering the camera.
It keeps contacts clean and dry, plus prevents them from accidental separation.
It has become the industry standard connector, which means you aren't forced to buy future cameras/cables/upgrades from one retailer - as parts are interchangeable between numerous suppliers (although we are confident you will be impressed enough with us that you will choose us for any future upgrades/spare parts).
All of our aviation extension cables are high quality, with the inner cores consisting of pure copper. We do not use the cheaper CCA (Copper Coated Aluminium) or CCS (Copper Coated Steel) cables, because they are more prone to failure/degradation over time.
Anti-Corrosion Stainless Steel Camera Bracket
The camera has a stainless steel bracket, which is shown to last a very long time without corrosion, unlike mild steel we have seen from most other retailers, which tends to rust in a matter of a few months.
2 Year Guarantee
We supply with a 2-year Guarantee with us, meaning we will repair or replace any non-user damaged parts that are deemed faulty. Our failure rate is very low even beyond these two years. If you have a problem outside of 2 years we should still have compatible parts and possible repairs for reasonable amounts.
Parts Tested in the UK
The parts of this kit will have been tested twice, once by the factory and once by us. We check all the items in the kit including all cables, trigger wires, IR leds and menu functions to reduce any chance of having a non working part. Our fault rate is extremely low, and we just like to ensure that we avoid any imperfection slipping past. This is why professional fitters love us.
Optional Guidelines displayed when reverse selected
If you want to see the guidelines you can turn these on and off in the menu, the guidelines will only work on the reversing channel and when the trigger wire for this channel is active, they won't bother you when driving forward and wanting to view the camera on all the time.
