Rearview Camera Kit with 4.3 to 7-Inch Screen Cigarette Lighter

Rearview camera kit with screen: all-in-one, powered by the cigarette lighter

This rearview camera kit brings the screen, camera, and all cables together in a single box. Its special feature: it is powered by the cigarette lighter socket, without having to tap into the reverse light or dismantle the trim to find an ignition-switched wire. You choose the screen shape and size that suit your interior, and you get a functional rearview camera with screen for any car, van, or camper.

Seven screen configurations for this car rearview camera kit

• 4.3 or 5-inch stand-mounted screen: placed on the dashboard, compact and easy to read.
• 4.3 or 5-inch fold-down screen: it folds flat when you are not using it.
• 4.3 or 5-inch rearview screen: it clips onto the original interior rearview mirror and frees up the dashboard.
• 7-inch stand-mounted screen: the largest image, ideal for a utility vehicle or camper.
• Each configuration comes with the rearview camera, the approximately 7 m installation cable, and the approximately 2.5 m cigarette lighter cable.

A rearview camera screen installed without touching the vehicle's circuit

The principle will appeal to those who do not want to modify the wiring harness: you plug the connector into the cigarette lighter, connect the camera to the screen with the provided cable, and the system works. There is no need to locate the reverse light power wire or the ignition-switched wire. The screen has two video inputs, which allows you to add a second camera later, for example to monitor a trailer.

The features of the screen and camera in the kit

The screen consumes approximately 3 W and is powered between 9 and 14 V. The 4.3-inch version displays 480 x 272 pixels, the 5 and 7-inch versions have a higher resolution. The camera, with its compact square housing, offers a stated viewing angle of approximately 150°, electronics protected by waterproof resin, a resolution of 600 TV lines, a sensitivity of 0.1 lux, and an electronic reversing guide integrated into the image.

Installing this rearview camera kit in a few steps

Mount the camera above the license plate, run the installation cable through the interior to the screen, place the screen on the dashboard or on the rearview mirror depending on the model chosen, then plug the connector into the cigarette lighter. Plan for a neat cable pass-through through the tailgate or rear door seal. For a very long vehicle, check that the cable length is sufficient.

Frequently asked questions about this rearview camera kit with screen

Which screen should I choose for my car?
The rearview screen keeps the dashboard clear, the fold-down screen is forgotten once folded, and the 7-inch offers the best readability in a large vehicle.

Do I need an electrician to install it?
No in most cases: power via the cigarette lighter avoids any intervention in the circuit. The only job consists of neatly routing the camera cable.

Does the camera turn on automatically in reverse?
Powered by the cigarette lighter, the system works as long as the socket is powered, regardless of reverse gear. If you want automatic activation, you must connect the camera to the reverse light.

Can I connect a second camera?
Yes, the screen has two video inputs; only one is displayed at a time.
