7" Mirror Monitor + Sharp CCD Polished S/Steel Bracket Reversing Camera Kit - PM38

PM38 - 7 inch mirror monitor and polished stainless steel bracket reversing camera kit

• This kit comes with the mirror monitor that clips over your existing interior mirror using spring-loaded clamps.  
• It also comes with a polished stainless steel bracket reversing camera.
• Fitted with an excellent quality 600TVL 1/3" Sharp CCD image sensor.  
• The camera might remind you of one that is supplied with a branded system sold at around 3 times the price we charge, that's because this particular camera is made by the same factory.

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).

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.

Image Sensor for Camera

An image sensor is the part of the camera that detects and captures information to make an image, there are various sizes of sensor usually between 1/4" and 1/3" with the larger sensors able to capture more detail.  In the old days, you used to have to pick CCD for quality as CMOS wasn't as good, this has changed recently with some advancements in CMOS technology (there are varying quality levels of CMOS to confuse matters).  In this particular kit, we are using the Sharp 1/3" CCD 600TVL image sensor inside the camera.  We consider this the joint second-best image sensor in terms of picture quality you can get on a reversing camera.

Anti-Corrosion Stainless Steel Camera Bracket

The camera has a polished 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.
