Back up Camera AGAIN!

[Jeff Miller]

The wire duct is in the back of the overhead cabinets.

I'd look at repairing rather than replacing. I've had coaches with LCD
and CRT, overhead and dash-top. I prefer overhead, CRT. The LCD usually
doesn't have enough contrast & brightness for full-sun with all of
those windows, overhead mounting helps though, and mine didn't dim
enough to use at night. CRT worked well, good contrast and brightness.
Buy a coach and try it before engineering too much change IMO.

The fuzzy one might be an original plastic lense on the back of
the '87, common problem, dremmel out the plastic and install glass.
Cameras are cheap if it is the problem, and the monitor can also be
repaired.

Wiring can be run down the A or B pillar, although it's pretty crowded
in there already, it can be done.
