Backup Camera Retrofits: What To Check Before You Buy

Backup Camera Retrofits: What To Check Before You Buy

A backup camera retrofit is one of the most useful upgrades you can add to an older car, but not every kit works with every dashboard or wiring setup.

  • Confirm whether your car’s head unit already supports a rear-camera input before buying a wireless kit.
  • Wireless systems are easier to install but can suffer interference near other 2.4GHz devices.
  • Check the camera’s low-light performance if you do a lot of night driving or parking.
