Overall not bad for less than $100 especially the screen it's nice and big: Now to figure out everything else on it since the directions were um the crappiest I've ever seen. What's the little speaker for on the back? What are the modes I can't identify? I put this on my Ford F250 HD Get Extra wire if you have a big truck.
Oh, yeah the wire from the mirror is very short I had to run everything down the plastic runners.
A couple hours of install time was worth it. This camera will come in handy. It cost me less than $100. I had to spend some money buying extra wire. But Over all it's a pretty good deal. It's clear picture in the day and well lit up areas. Bad in the dark areas. So it's 80% good 20%bad. maybe I'll do a short video review so people can see it in action.

I like the system. It is really cool backing up looking into the rear-view mirror and seeing everything behind the car. I feel like I can drive in reverse anywhere. I think it will really help when I am backing up my trailor. With that said, the instructions are worthless. Since they are, I will describe my installation here on a Honda Ody 2005:1. Find a 12V power adapter (kind you plug into cigarette lighter, they come with lots of electronics so you probably have one somewhere. If not it can be purchased at RShack)/
2. Cut off the plug end that goes into the electronic item (not the end that goes into the cig lighter).
3. Splice the cut wires into the Pyle Monitor's wires (the red is power and the black is ground). On my 12V adapter, the black wire was ground and the black-with-white-stripe wire was hot.
4. I did not use the green wire and will explain later.
5. The only other wire is the yellow video connector which we will use later.
For the camera:
6. Remove all the plastic backing on the trunk hatch.
7. Remove the license plate.
8. There is a hole midway betw the lic plate mounting holes. Drill that out wider so the camera power and video cables can snake through.
9. I had to mount the camera on the bottom of lic plate (interfered with trunk latch). Snake the cables through the drilled hole and tighten everything up.
10. On the inside of trunk hatch, find the wire that feeds one of the rear back up lights. On the Ody it is green. Cut a green and ground (black) and connect to the red (hot) and black (ground) wires that connect to the camera. NOTE, these wires plug into the red coax cable coming from the camera.
11. All that's left is to connect the video from the camera to the montior and replace all the plastic you took off.
It worked like a charm (took me all day to figure this out though). I did not connect the green wire from the monitor b/c it was hard to find a backup power wire, cut it, and connect it to the green wire I did not want to cut wires in the dash area b/c it was crowded and hard to get to. But I don't miss it. I just hit the power button on the unit when I want to back up and turn it off when I am not in reverse. No big deal. Hope that makes sense.
I hope these instructions help.
11/2011 update
The mirror only lasted less than a year. It stopped giving an image. It was not wiring but the device itself. Piece of S%&%. I will never buy any of this company's products again.

I just purchased a 2010 F250 short bed. Did not get the reverse camera option and realized I should have. Looked around Amazom and found the Pyle PLCM 7200 monitor and camera for under $100. The reviews where mid range but it seemed to be only due to the complaint that the instructions are not adequate. Well it is true that they are very very limited but considering all the variations in vehicles it is expected. Basically you need power to the camera, cable run connecting the camera in the exterior back with the monitor in the cab, and power to the monitor. So this is what I had to do.Camera
I did not want to hook it up to the license plate holder so some fool could rip it off easily. So a placed it just behind it. There is a panel with two holes. The holes are not in a perfect location but with a metal strip from Home Depot and some bolts, it sits secured and nicely hides between the gate and the license plate.
I took a meter and checked continuity between the cables to the trailer connection and the pin out on the connector. On the F250 orange is power (+) and the big white one is return (-). The video cable they give is a little short. I had an additional 4 foot single RCA cable. With an adapter to connect them both to each other, I ran the cable along the non exhaust side to the cabin. So how to get the video into the cab? Well it so happens that on the back of the cab there are two vent openings. Pretty sweet. The cable easily fits through the vent, then you just run it along the trim to the front drivers side.
Monitor
Attaches right over the existing rear view mirror. Cable slides into where the cabin cealing meets the trim. Down to the drivers side, squeezing into trim. On the side of the dash the panel comes right off, no screws. The cable just makes it into a cavity under the dash. I have a few car power adapters from various flashlights that have died through the years so, I cut the end off of one, metered it to see which side was +, and then wired it to the power wires from the monitor. There are alot of screws to land the ground wire to in the area where the panel came off from.
Plug in the adapter, turn the Key to ACC, turn the monitor on and on Video 1 I get a nice clear picture.
I used the adapter instead of hardwiring it because it was easy. I do not have a schematic of what all the wires under the dash do.
As far as night vision, well with no lights it is dark, imagine that. With break lights and even more with reverse lights I get a descent picture. Definitely good enough to hook up a trailer at night.
The remote works nice. There are options to modify brightness, contrast, tint and even if you initialy installed the camera upside down, you can flip the view.
Update 5 16 2012. The monitor stop working..trouble shooted....purchased new camera...works sometimes but not when needed...seems to be the display unit....maybe gets to hot in the cab.??

Nice product for such a low price. The monitor is great because it slips right over your rear view mirror. When the camera is off, the monitor serves as a rear view mirror. The monitor is set up to handle TWO cameras.I used mine for the front bumper of my Rock Crawler Jeep so I can see the road immediately in front of the bumper for obstacles. The same company offers a much higher quality camera at a reasonable cost as well. I switched the original camera to the rear. I then mounted the higher resolution wider angle camera on the front, mounting it into a waterproof type household electric outlet box and mounting it to the lower front bumper. The original camera that comes with the set is a 160 degree camera, and can bolt onto your licence plate. The higher quality is a 180 degree camera at higher resolution, but requires some clever tricks to figure out how to mount it.
The bad side of this purchase: HORRIBLE INSTRUCTIONS. Poor customer service. I had to leave repeated messages to ask how to make it work, before I accidentally found someone who didn't know that it is OK to answer the phone. Once I found out that the camera requires a power source wire, and the monitor requires a power source wire, it was easy from then on.
I am going to buy one more of these to mount on my RV. Well worth the price.The camera-monitor system works OK; serves its purpose. I bought it for the large screen, hard wiring betweem camera and monitor and attractive price. Those wireless cameras are easier to install but I've read of multiple problems like interference, limited range, etc. Main problems with this one were the lack of an instruction manual and inability to handle bright lights. The system becomes paralized if camera is exposed to sunlight. Backing toward a car with its headlights on blanks part or most of the screen. I wired both camera and monitor to a plug that goes into the cigarette lighter socket. There are times when I need more than just the mirrors while going forward, like while towing a trailer, so I chose not to connect to the backup light wire. Curiously, I found no mark as to country of origin. Very surprising that is isn't Chinese. That must mean that a US manufacturer has out chinesed the Chinese. Way to go!

This is essentially the same booster pack that Century made about 5 years ago, just bigger. My Century pack (ES2500) has worked well the times I have needed it. The only problem with the Century pack is during cold weather the charging lights will come on when pushing the test button and stay on. (I just don't push the button anymore during the winter unless I plan on charging it). They don't draw much voltage (they were on for over two weeks before I saw them and the pack was still almost fully charged). The new pack hasn't done that to me yet. My Century pack has started 4 cylinder cars with the temps hitting 10 degrees below Farenheit.This new and bigger pack is heavier but very similar in every other way. I bought this one to be sure that I could jump my 8 cylinder pickup. I never tried the old pack on the bigger motor.
I wanted this Booster Pack for my truck and then put the old one in my wife's car. I just charge the packs about every 4-5 months and have never had a problem. I combined this with a small 12 volt air compressor to keep in each vehicle to be as ready as I can during my drives with the military.

I own a used car dealership and have used these booster pacs for about 10 years now. They are by far the best and longest lasting. I use them on a daily basis and they can take a real beating but after they get dropped a 100 times the plastic case will crack and eventually break apart. I never had to replace one because of a bad battery though, even after several years. I also like the slim desing unlike those big bulky ones with all the extra gadgets. Dont waste your money on those, they are cheap quality and the battey on it is like using a couple of AA batteries to start a car.Want Clore ES5000 'Booster PAC' 12V Portable Battery Booster Discount?
Being fair I have had several types of battery boosters and this one is by far the best one for the money I've ever used . Portable easy to use and capable of starting my Dead F-450 6.0 twin battery diesel truck when jumpers a good battery charger and my old battery Booster couldn't . Best part I didn't by new battery for over a week and jumped the truck off at least 6 times without charging the Battery Booster Impresive by Any standards .Sunday, September 15, 2013
