I installed one in my van and see a disavantage of the combination of navigator and back up camera. Usually, the unit is done booting up after I already drove 1/2 mile away, hoho. When I really need the camera, I have to wait for a long time to it to boot and got ready for me to see my rear view. This is the reason why I am reluctant to put it into my 911. I know that the stand alone back up camera won't take long to turn on.
PS: several days after I had my back up camera installed, I backed my van into a giant concrete pole and messed the rear end :lol:. This is the first time even in my life.

It will be installed in my Dodge dually one ton. ( a Smart car could hide sideways behind me!)
Have one in my Ford f150 work truck and have found it handy when hooking up to a trailer or parking in a tight spot.
Any recommendations for a camera anyone ??
