    Lot of work, but if you’re happy with it that’s what matters. We just use the backup camera that came with it and keep it on all the time. We call it a tag and paid $740 on our 2022 Scope 18M in NC. We enjoy all your videos!

    Tennessee tags last year were $28 or $29. This year everyone in our county paid $5.95. Rates vary by county, our county doesn’t have a wheel tax. Love your videos.

    Good job on the mirror install. I’ve moved my camera three times since I built out my van. First I had it on the license plate but when I added a bike rack the camera was blocked. Then I put in inside with it viewing through the rear window but if I had a cover over my bikes the view was again blocked. I finally moved it to the same place you did and now it’s perfect.

    great video, I took Romex and put the cable in it ran underneath the van so much easier and ran through the dash, took less time hour, and protected from the weather, just an idea.

    Great use of Mr. Lemon's downtime! I have fished and fed cables on a car and racked up numerous you-know-what bombs, can't imagine the patience it takes to do a built out van in AZ in May! If anybody can, Bob and Hillary can. At least this time it was for a big value add! Hope the battery situation resolves for you quickly and you can get in some good weather trips. 🙏👍🤞

I can see the hardest part is just running the cable (hiding) to the back for the rear camera. I am also getting the kit to actually install without the rubber straps. Will be watching your video's from now on, keep it up.

    Another great video. I put a similar rear view mirror camera in mine. It definitely wasn’t a simple job. The wire hanger was key.😂. One suggestion, be sure to remove the bulb in the middle red clearance light, the red light will interfere with the camera image at night. Appreciate you guys.

    As per your question about the registration fee, we are in San Diego, California, and just paid our first one. It was $1060.00. A bit less than in Arizona... I was surprised...
