Description

About the numberplate frame reversing camera kit with 5 inch display

  • Comes with a 5 inch high resolution digital panel heavy duty monitor.
  • Wide choice of mounting options for the monitor (see images/drop down menu).
  • Suitable for both 12V and 24V vehicles.
  • Avoids CANBUS issue, as the monitor provides power to the camera.
  • Various power options eg lighter plug/fuse taps (see further down for details).
  • Comes with a numberplate frame reversing camera, fitted with the 600TVL PC1058 premium CMOS image sensor.
  • Fitted with a very wide angle (150 degrees) lens - ideal for parking.
  • Premium Aspheric Lens - means that despite the extra wide angle, it minimises the "fish bowl" effect you see on cheaper cameras.
  • Traditionally this style of camera has caused us and others a nightmare in terms of waterproofing (or lack of). The factory who produces this has done an amazing job and we have yet to have one leak after selling hundreds. The price of these to us are double what we would pay for most cameras, but they are the only factory that we trust with this style design.
  • Waterproof rating of this camera is IP69K - the highest possible.
  • Easy to install, with a range of power options. Just one power connection powers the system.
  • Our extension cables are high quality, with the inner cores consisting of pure copper.
  • This kit comes with a 2 year guarantee from us - REVCAMUK. Our reputation on forums and groups will show how trusted we are to look after our customers.

How to fit the number plate frame reverse camera to your vehicle

This camera is very easy to install.

1. Unscrew your existing number plate from your vehicle

2. Slide the number plate in to the new number plate frame camera

3. Fix the number plate + frame camera to the vehicle using the original screws

4. Make a small channel on the number plate light to allow the wire to enter the vehicle without getting crushed (or use the attached grommet).

See our video below to see the installation of the number plate reversing camera. For best viewing, ensure the playback quality is set to HD.

Add an additional monitor bracket/mount

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.

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.

Monitor has Digital LCD Panel - Not Standard LCD

The monitor uses a Hi-Res digital panel screen with more than 3 times the amount of pixels of the standard analogue LCD screens most other retailers sell.   (Please note some sellers multiply the first number by 3 for RGB, if we were to do that it sounds even more impressive (2400x480).  We prefer to keep it simple but check carefully our competitors, the last number is normally better to go by as this is the number of vertical lines of pixels. 


System Suitability

Our systems work on either 12V or 24V, no switches it will adjust to the voltage automatically, this also protects the kit from any surges from the vehicle upto 32V, which is why we have such a good reliability record from these voltage protected kits.


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.  


What cable length should I select?

Rough guide:

5M is good for a car

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

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
