PM35H : Bolt to number plate reversing camera kit with 7" mirror monitor

  • This reversing camera kit comprises of a bolt type number plate reverse camera, designed to fit to the number plate light area of your vehicle.  Plus a top quality high resolution mirror monitor.
  • The mirror monitor uses a high quality 7 inch LCD digital panel, that gives great colour and brightness.  The monitor can be set up to display guidelines by attaching green wire to reverse light supply and setting them up in the menu system.  You can even adjust the position of the guidelines inside the menu system.  We include full instructions on this, which can be found further down this screen as a downloadable PDF.
  • The bolt type number plate reversing camera has had an update for 2023.  We have been so impressed with the quality of the PC4089 700TVL image sensor, combined with the all glass composite lenses (the same as we use with our brake light cameras), that we had the same factory make these reversing cameras with the same setup.
  • The PC4089 sensor is one of the new generation of CMOS, which costs less to produce than CCD, but still has very good performance.  We are then able to pass along the savings to you.
  • The camera fixes to the vehicle via a bolt and nut, which the wire travels through in to the vehicle.
  • The camera is fitted with a very wide angle lens, to be able to easily see all around the rear of the vehicle.

Choice of kit power options

  • 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).
Power Supply Options including lighter plug and piggyback fuse taps

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.
  • It makes fitting easier, and avoids CANBUS issues due to the monitor powering the camera.
  • 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.

Please note that on this camera there are parts on the wiring that must be kept away from water. With numberplate cameras this is usually not a problem as the wire enters the vehicle body close to where the camera is mounted. The only issue would be if mounting on a trailer where the wiring will not be entering an enclosed space.


Mirror Mounting Options

For many years we have supplied the universal clip-over existing interior mirror rear-view monitor. More recently we have also begun to offer the monitor with a variety of direct-to-windscreen stalk brackets. We have windscreen brackets to fit the most popular van and motorhome models, as well as a universal option where you can glue a mounting plate to the windscreen for a bracket to fit. See our guide below for more information about the different bracket options.

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, 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.  

Detailed Images

Yes you can, the monitor powers the camera, this means you can choose to watch the camera at any point, you can drive with it "always on".

Our easy wire fuse tap options are new for 2023.  We designed a fuse tap that plugs in to a socket that is present on all of our monitor wiring harnesses.  The other side has a "piggyback" fuse holder aka fuse tap.  You identify a fuse in the fuse box that comes on/off with the ignition (see piggyback fuse holder / fuse tap instructions here - PDF download).  The original fuse is placed in to the new fuse tap, plus there is a new fuse already present for the reverse camera kit.  On the same wiring there is an earth terminal connector, simply attach this to a chassis bolt (usually near the fuse box, or add your own).

Rough guide:

  • 5M is good for an average size car
  • 7.5M is good for large cars and shorter wheelbase vans
  • 10M is good for a medium length van (around 6M)
  • 12.5M is good for most vehicles up to around 8.5M long (covers most motorhomes except the super long)
  • 15M is good for vehicles up to around 10/11M eg rigid lorry, small coach.
  • 20M is good for super long vehicles
