Ours cost £12 Husky, OH fitted it himself and linked it to our GPS, he also did one for a friend, I suppose you can spend X amount on anything but most work on the  same principle. We hardly ever use the GPS but the reversing camera and bleeper have been very useful.

 I don't know if it's any help but I spoke to a chap from Parkingcameras.com - based in Kent and he gave me some very good advice and seemed very knowledgeable.  It was he who advised me re using a narrow angle lens for continuous rear-view purposes.  They have a wide choice of cameras and monitors - typically around the £200 mark.

On my new van I have a Vision Plus Ranger 440 fitted. It seems to work pretty well giving a wide backwards view during normal travel and switching to a more immediate view when reverse is selected. Its wired via a pre-installed loop. On the previous van I had a Waeco camera and screen but I think the Vision Plus is better.

Looks good. Very similar to mine but more expensive. What's the microphone and speaker for? I particularly like the clip on mirror ones as they keep the cab and dash clear of clutter, neat and tidy.
