About our Mercedes Sprinter 2006-Present VW Crafter 2006-2017 Reverse and Rear View Camera System
Our 7 inch display and TWIN brake light reversing + rear view camera system to fit both the Mercedes Sprinter vans (2006-Present) and VW Volkswagen Crafter vans (Pre-2017). Two Views, both adjustable to get the perfect angle. Fit the best, our display has proven itself in terms of performance and reliability over the years. Couple this with the 4089 700tvl hi-res sensor in the camera for a stunning picture.
This brake light rear view + reversing camera fits the following vans:
Mercedes Sprinter 2006 - Present
VW Volkswagen Crafter 2006 - 2017
This kit has the following advantages :
Great Camera Image Quality - We don't settle for the base spec when it comes to this brake light camera. We have the 4089 700tvl image sensors fitted, which are paired with a top quality all-glass composite lens. The image sensor is one of the most important components for ensuring a colourful, sharp, and high dynamic image. We select all glass lenses instead of cheaper glass-plastic composites, because over time plastic containing lenses would fade from UV damage. No such issue with our all-glass lenses.
High Resolution Monitor Image Quality - Our 7 inch stand/dash mount monitor display gives a good quality image thanks to it's 800x480 pixel digital hi-res LCD panel. This resolution can handle even the highest resolution of traditional CVBS signal reversing cameras (CVBS signal still makes up 95%+ of all existing reversing camera systems). Numbers can be misleading, as we have seen lots of poor quality panels with the same resolution, but with poor performance. Trust us, check out the photos customers have sent in, then make your decision with the knowledge that you are buying from a long established, trusted, reputable firm who keep things consistent, and support their customers for life.
Advanced Menu System - A lot of reversing camera displays have very basic functions, usually just the colour/contrast/brightness. This menu system has the ability to add guidelines, number the guidelines with a distance, choose to say if the measurement is displayed as M or Ft, individually change settings for each channel e.g mirror one channel but not the other, and set interval mode so the monitor flicks between both channels at a set number of seconds. We don't just leave you to figure things out yourself, we issue a booklet to guide you through all of the functions, why not read it before you purchase by heading to the PDF instructions tab of this listing. We are about keeping long term products, consistency, and support for life, which includes providing detailed support material such as this.
Ability to Add Guidelines to Image in Reverse - You can set the monitor up so that it displays guidelines when you select reverse gear. These lines can be adjusted in width, and along both the vertical axis and horizontal axis. Numbers can be added, and choice of imperial or metric measurements. See pages 5 to 6 of our comprehensive instruction manual for the 7 inch reversing camera monitor for more details on the guidelines.
IP68 Waterproof Protection - This reversing camera is rated to IP68 water/dust ingress protection. This will keep the camera protected in even the worst wet and stormy weather the Great British weather can throw at it, or indeed on your trips across the continent.
130°(H) / 160°(D) Ultra Wide Angle (Reversing Camera) - Due to the external lens fitted to this camera, you are able to have a greater field of view, which is very helpful when reversing. External lenses can achieve wider field of view compared to those mounted behind a glass cover.
80°(H) / 105°(D) Semi-Narrow Angle (Rear View Camera) - When it comes to rear view cameras, you will appreciate the field of view being less wide angle. This is physically the most narrow angle lens we could get fitted in to the small camera body used for this camera. In and ideal world we would fit a 6mm or 8mm lens (45-60 degree) for rear view, those lenses are far too big for a brake light camera. The rear view camera is a great compromise and manages to achieve an 80 degree field of view, whilst maintaining it's small size.
2 Year Guarantee - We believe that our brake light reversing cameras come from the best factory, the factory is so sure of their own product that they fully support our highly respected two year guarantee. We find the fault rate very low from them, but should anything happen in your first two years of ownership, we will provide a replacement.
IR Night Vision - The downward facing camera is fitted with IR LED's that activate when it becomes dark. IR light is beyond the visible spectrum of the human eye, so you won't be blinding anyone behind you with light. The camera will see it, and use it to see obstacles behind your van when it is dark. Another bonus about our external lens is not having the IR LED's behind a glass lens cover. This means you get a really good contrast at night time, with none of the haziness sometimes seen with glass lens cover versions.
Maintains a Tidy Factory Look - This brake light reverse camera was designed to fit perfectly where the OEM brake light used to be. If you didn't tell anyone, most people would assume it was a factory addition. The brake light works just as well as the original.
Increases Safety Whilst Driving and Reversing - With two cameras present, you will increase your awareness of what is to the rear of your vehicle, whether you are driving forward, or reversing backwards. The rear view camera can be left on all the time whilst you drive, then swap to the downward facing camera when you go in to reverse.
Alternative bracket options - The monitor has a rear channel that allows our alternative monitor brackets to be installed. This choice includes quick release, ceiling mount, heavy duty, and temporary suction mount brackets. You can choose to add a discounted price bracket with this monitor using the drop down selection box menu - see monitor bracket options tab for more details on each type.
Power Connection Options
You have the option to add additional leads that plug in to a DC socket on the monitor wiring harness. You will always be supplied with the standard power wire, which gives you a red wire and a black wire to solder / crimp to a power supply.
On the drop down menus you will notice there are two options selectable. One to add a lighter plug, one for a fuse tap. Scroll down for details on each option.
Lighter Plug
Selecting this option adds an additional lighter plug lead - attaches to a socket on the end of the 300cm monitor wiring loom/harness. Some people order this option just to try out there new kit before hardwiring permanently.
Fuse Tap (Mini blade, Standard blade)
Selecting this option adds an additional easy-wire fuse tap lead with built in earth terminal connector.
We designed and had this product produced in 2023, and they have been very popular. We wanted to create something that meant our customers could hardwire a reversing camera system to their vehicle with ease and minimal tools. Fuse taps have already become popular for installing dash cams, so we wanted to make them more popular for reversing camera kits too.
Usually fuse taps have no earth terminal connector and require crimp tools to connect to your wiring - our easy wire fuse tap kits are different. They come supplied with 2M of twin wire (power + earth) attached. The wires can be pulled apart should you wish to earth to an area far from the fuse box.
Choose a fuse that's active when the ignition is on. Remove the original fuse and place it in the empty slot of the fuse tap. The correct rated fuse for the new camera system is supplied already installed in the correct slot. Install the fuse tap (with the two fuses fitted) in to the fuse box (where you removed the original fuse). Lastly, connect the earth terminal to a chassis bolt or screw (or add a new bolt/screw to secure it).
The mini blade is the most commonly seen fuse size on modern vehicles.
Standard blade used to be the most common fuse size installed, and is still commonly seen, even on very recent vehicles.
Additional Monitor Bracket Options
To add a discounted price additional monitor bracket to your product bundle, please see the descriptions/photos below. We also have a YouTube video showing the various bracket options below.
ACC035 - "Butterfly" Bracket option
So called because the base looks like a pair of butterfly wings. Fitted with an adhesive pad on the base, peel the protective layer off and stick to your clean dashboard. Additional screws can be used if you feel it needs reinforcement. The square nut fits in to the channel of your monitor, whilst there is a screw to the rear of the bracket that will then screw in to the square washer until it locks the two together.
ACC041 Quick Release Bracket option
The quick release bracket is one of the most popular bracket options. The bracket has a removable mounting plate that attaches to the rear channel of the monitor. This plate can then slide in to the bracket that is mounted to the dashboard and locks. To release, simply pull back the thumb switch at the rear, then slide the monitor up and out. Our monitors have disconnect points around a foot away from the monitor to allow it to disconnect. A bracket that makes initial install a little quicker, as well as allowing more adjustability in positioning of the display. Adhesive pad base for sticking to clean dashboard with bendable feet.
ACC705B - Heavy Duty Rear Mount Bracket Option
The most sturdy of all of our rear mounted dash mounts, all metal design. Monitor slides on to the bracket, which has a rear adjustment rotational wheel to lock the monitor to the bracket. Self adhesive base, with bendable "feet" for curvy dashboards. You can add screws if required.
ACC038 - Suction Mount Bracket Option
Only designed for temporary mounting eg. moving a monitor from one vehicle to another. This bracket has strong suction, people are often shocked by how strong it is. We use these when we road test new monitors for temporary mounting. A ball joint allows for good adjustment to give the monitor the optimum viewing angle.
ACC20540 - "Banana" Ceiling Mount Swan Neck Bracket Option
The ceiling mount bracket is a very sturdy and adjustable bracket mount for the monitor in this kit. Two screws secure this to the ceiling or plastic trim of the vehicle. The other side attaches to the channel on the back of the monitor and secures with a twist of the locking wheel. Release the tension by turning the hand screw knob on the left to allow the ball joint to rotate clockwise and anticlockwise, or up/down/left/right. These have been a very popular option since they were introduced.
