Since purchasing my Regency in June 2009 I have been paranoid about the large blind spot on the right side of the RV. To take care of that problem I have installed a camera under the right side rear view mirror and a monitor on the dash. While looking at the new monitor the rear view mirror is also in site. The new monitor is movable with a weighted bottom and placed next to the rear view mirror. Here are some pictures.

Setting on the console while in use:


Same view from further away:

I am hoping this will avoid some future problems.

The camera is at this link:

There was sufficient cabling for both the power and camera. I have a new fuse distribution panel installed in the console under the rear view monitor. It has been handy for installing upgrades such as these. I have been very happy with these products.
