Reversing Cameras - the best type to buy

[Malcolm P Price]

I want to buy a reversing camera for use in my Skoda Octavia and would like your comments and suggestions please.

As I understanding is that there are wired and wireless ones and that wired ones give better picture quality.

Some  cameras have active guide lines which show the predicted car path.

The display can be in the rear view mirror or a separate screen on the car's dash panel.

The price range is from £15 to £500 so what are good value for money ones??

What year and mark Octavia do you have?

[Malcolm P Price]

My car is an Octavia 1.4 TSI mark two 2009 facelift  model

There is a tow bar with a large 5mm thick aluminium protection plate behind and I think a camera could be mounted behind this if a vision hole was made though the plate.

That probably rules out what I had in mind then, sadly.  East Yorkshire Retrofits do some great products and installations for VAG products.  Good luck whatever path you choose!
