Default Re: Back Up Camera with GPS

Bought one at pep Boys for $119, spent a couple of hours installing it. Unfortunately, the picture was unstable from interference most of the time. (When it did become viewable for a few seconds, it looked really good.)

Contacted the company that provides support (Roadmaster) and asked if I could echange it for a wired model. They said that was possible and issued an RMA number. Unistalled, packaged & mailed it to them and waited about 6 weeks for the replacement unit (backordered.) When it arrived a few days ago, was surprized to find another wireless model.

Contacted the company's support and asked about the wired model I was promised as a replacement. I told them I was reluctant to spend another couple of hours re-installing the wireless unit, if the wired model was available. They responded that the wired model was discontinued because of the popularity of the wireless model. They asked me for the version # of the unit and I emailed it to them on Thursday.

I am waiting to here back. My guess is the version # has something to do with the wireless frequency being used by the unit. I'm hoping they have at least improved the reception. As I said, when it worked, it looked GREAT.

Will keep you posted.
