Rear view camera

Does anyone know of a rear view camera that isn’t wide angle? I’d like to use it as a rear view mirror and the wide angle doesn’t really work for that purpose.

Wired or wireless? Here's a wired backup cam with a 30 degree FOV:

Looks like there's a wireless version too:

We used a Yakry backup camera from Amazon on our previous camper. It is not wide angle and is wireless.

Haloview Camera

Give a serious look at Haloview https://www.haloview.com/

After our earlier post, https://www.escapeforum.org/forums/f...tml#post379454, we decided to go with the MC10 Wireless Backup Camera with Rearview Mirror Dashcam, but they have lots of other options. It works well ~ We are very pleased, especially with split view showing the dashcam AND the rearview (folks seem to always cut into our stopping distance on the interstates)!

Tadi Brothers has “Furrion compatible” cameras that attach to my already installed Furrion bracket and come with an adapter to plug into the pre-wired power supply. I need to talk to them tomorrow to find out if one of the non wide angle cameras are compatible. Thanks for all of the suggestions.

So, for now I’m too lazy to patch the fiberglass and am going to just reinstall the camera. Can I just reuse the existing screw holes?

Yes, the hard work's been done.

The screws have to cut threads the first time that they're inserted but after that it's just like inserting a bolt into a nut.
