thanks...
have you seen the camera view from the tail gate handle?
its mostly angled for hooking up a trailer, correct?
that's all i really want it for. not using it to backup long distances...
the emblem cam is much better imo and i have a friend who has it. wonderful for hooking a trailer up...

The emblem camera would also be a little closer to the hitch maybe going you a better view.
I'm sure either would do a perfectly fine job though.

and yes, tail gate cam is much cheaper than the emblem cam...

The handle camera seems like the cheaper and easier route, I agree.

here is the thread i read a while back. minimal cutting/drilling.
i might go that route. the emblem can be had on ebay for less than $60. just need to find a camera that will fit the hole and it would be much cheaper than buying from ford.

I bought the handle with camera, $143 shipped off Ebay, for my truck and plan on installing it some time in the next couple weeks. I just need to figure out if I can use an aftermarket rearview mirror, because of the "black box" attached to the stock mirror, or if I will have to install a new headunit.
