Reversing camera

Most of the new cars already have parking assistance such as reversing cameras or parking sensors. Does your car not have parking assistance, but would you like it? Of course, that is no problem. In fact, you can equip every car with reversing cameras or parking sensors. Installation is also fairly simple and you can certainly do it yourself. It is however up to you to choose for rear view cameras or parking sensors, the difference between those two we will explain below.

Reversing camera vs parking sensors

You may still have doubt about a rear view camera or parking sensors. To help you make a choice, we will explain the advantages and disadvantages. The advantage of a rear view camera is that you will get a full picture of what is happening behind the car. With a parking sensor, you will only be alerted to the space behind you by means of a signal or sound. The advantages of parking sensors, however, is that they are often cheaper than reversing cameras. So, are you opting for an affordable solution? Then we recommend the parking sensors.

When it comes to safety, it is best to opt for a reversing camera. American (Insurance Institute of Highway Safety) research has shown that a camera is more effective than a parking sensor to prevent a collision during parking. In this research, they indicate that cameras reduce blind spots by 90%.

Installation reversing camera

After ordering a reversing camera, you must now install it. This may sound complicated, but it is not that hard. With a little skill, installing a reversing camera is done in no time. With some cameras, you will have to drill a hole in your vehicle during the installation, but this is not always necessary. Do you object to this, then find a camera that does not require this. What you should pay attention to when connecting, is the wiring. Does your car have existing cable trays? Then you can try to neatly incorporate the camera cables here. When you installed the camera and placed the wiring, you are almost done. If you want, you can incorporate the monitor of the camera in your dashboard. But, you can also stick the monitor on your car window or dashboard.

Looking for an easier option? Then we recommend you to purchase a wireless reversing camera. With a wireless reversing camera there is no need to place the wiring in your car. But, this does not mean that there is no installation required. The camera still needs to be supplied with power. With a non-wireless camera, this power supply comes from the monitor. For this, you have to pull the cabling through the car. With a wireless reversing camera, however, this will have to be taken from somewhere else, for example, the rear lights.

Wireless reversing camera

Would you rather not have the burden of installing a rearview camera? Or is your car less suitable for a wired camera? Then a wireless reversing camera is the ideal solution. As mentioned above, with a wireless camera you do not have to place all the cables, but the camera still has to be supplied with power. So you still have to do some work, but not that much.

However, a wireless reversing camera has a disadvantage. Nowadays, wireless connections are of course established very easy and quick. However, malfunctions can nevertheless occur. You can compare it to the connection of a telephone. Not matter how fast the connection is, malfunction still occur sometimes.

Buy a rearview camera

Altogether, the choice for a wired or wireless reversing camera comes down to you. With a wired one, you are assured of a good connection, but a wireless is ideal because you do not have to deal with all the cables. Buying a rearview camera is quick and easy at Winparts.
