AVIC D3 Backup Camera and Mounting

Just ordered an AVIC D3 for $608 shipped. Just wondering what backup camera you guys are using and where you're installing/mounting it? I don't really like the license plate mount ones (think its easy to see/rip off)...

I mounted mine under the rear bumper, you get a great view and it's virtually hidden. Mine is about 7 years old now, I had it installed in my last car as well. Back then I paid like $130. It looks similar to the ones on ebay "bullet" style. Just look on ebay but don't go to cheap. I bought a $30 ($10 = $20 shipping from hong kong) for my wife's car and the picture was crap!!!

Actually I believe this is the exact one I have, 7 years not a problem.

I know, no name site. Read a bunch of posts saying they ship good stuff, so I am cool (its on my credit card, let them fight it if its not).

I am planning on possibly putting it in my Murano, but we'll see. I'm going to cut the bezel if I do put it in the Maxima.

I got that same exact one. Very clear quality, and during night time it actually has a clear view as well.
