It's hell of a handy. Especially with the length of my van.

Couriers couldn't give 2 hoots even if they did bump it but when you pay 20 grand for a van then you want some back up just incase.. 🙂🙂🙂

i hav to agree to a point.
its not for normal reversing (the mirrors are for that) i want it more for seeing how close i am to something or to see if someone walks behind.
i have tried parralel parking a few times but couldnt judge where the car behind was.
its very helpfull to know if your 6 inchs or 2 feet away

With my step cam, I can get within 1" of any object. Really handy for those tight spaces as my van is 6403mm long

They do if they also paid 20 grand every 3 years for a van and had to have damage repaired within 7 days like I had to. Its all about knowing your vehicle's length !!

any reconmendations on brands etc

Eonon stereo with separate or built in Eonon screen
Mine are separate. Had them for a while but was about £70 each and about £10 for the additional wiring.
Cheap £10 reversing cam from Hong Kong. Just mind & get a night vision one. When mounting, don't mount bellow 1200mm as you will get glare from headlights at night.
All from eBay

If in doubt I open the door and stick my head out, in fact my wee Connect can squeeze into just about any space. Brilliant van for working in tight streets.
