    I bought this camera and screen from Amazon for ~$40 total. They were both the “runner up” in the reviews on Wirecutter. They work great and were easy to install. I ran the cables from the camera to the cab by zip tying them to the brake line. There’s a drain hole with a rubber plug under the backseat on the driver side that you can use to get the wires into the cab. The plug fits back in over the wires just fine. The screen requires a 12v power source and the instructions say you should wire it into the ignition, which is not worth the trouble. For $7 at O’Reilly you can get a 12v plug for the cigarette lighter that has bare wire ends, takes two seconds to wire nut the power cables from the screen to it.
