Yeah, this is a temporary fitting. We will be fitting the brake light camera for reversing, then we will be using the Wolfbox camera for rear view once we've fitted that. Thanks for watching!
Hey. Yeah, we could've used the original length cable. However, we are planning on mounting it up on the roof rack when that's fitted so we have to have the extra length for it to reach. Thanks for watching!
Hi David, We had to purchase a rear view mirror mounting kit. We show it at 1:56 in the Video. It was a Ford mounting plate as it fits the Wolfbox mirror perfectly. Thanks for watching!
It was from the 12v socket fuse. We did it this way because we only want the camera to come on when driving and not act as a security camera when it's switched off . Hope that helps! Thanks for watching
Hopefully the rest of the electrics in the van go much smoother! 😂
You do know you can get top rear view camera already built into the break light part.

@@PhilandLyds Your welcome will be watching all of the build till you have finished the full conversion.....
I fitted the same camera in my lwb sprinter and didn’t need the camera extension so sent it back

Do you have a link to the ford rear view mirror mount? We are doing the same as you and need this mount to mount the damn camera!
Hey, Yeah I'll try and find a link and will add it to our description 👍
I ,ust admit that installing my rear view camera (first one) was a PITA - I just gave up and used another model!
We were definitely not expecting it to take as long as it did 😅 but Phil persevered and got there in the end! Thanks for watching 😊
how did you mount the wolfbox mirror? Assuming your van didn't come with a factory rear view?
