Back up camera

Buying one for my 2003 F150. Any of you mount one on your truck? If so where did you put the monitor?

I am adding this to make my early AM boat trailer hook up easy @ pre-dawn.

3.5" Peak wireless caught my eye.

My rear video is via the Kenwood DDX 512 DVD unit. I bought the Boyo VTL422 on the license plate and it does pretty well

I have a tall shell on my F150. I mounted my camera above the back window - 74" off the ground, pointing down a bit. I can see things about 12" behind the back bumper, so this is excellent for monitoring a trailer. I also installed a better quality radio with built-in 7" screen in the center of the dashboard, it switches automatically to the rear camera when I back up. It can also be wired to display the rear view constantly if I should want that.
