No effect to the Iveco system as I think it all comes from the ignition system.

Lets know how ya went over the weekend with the fitting... :lol: :lol:

Sounds like the go for our long jobs... How big are the actual cameras...??? golf ball size...???

Reckon Pet-els are the same, not that I had a real close up look...

Good size on the mirror...??? Mine is dead now so anything would be good I reckon... :roll:

I have added a link to a blog page with some progress photos. I have had the camera running, although it was with an external battery. Picture quality was good, although a photo in the blog doesn't reflect actual quality. Pictures just show where I actually positioned everything for me to obtain an ideal camera location and get some depth perception

Working shift work and more than one project on the go at once means that the finished project will be a "work in progress" and may take another month to complete.

Hi Bruce, I always travel with nothing loose on the benches, but my microwave is behind the rear axle and has never moved. Tell your friend to have a look at his tyre pressures. I only have 40psi in my 5th wheeler tyres (3000kg over axles) and 35psi in my Colorado rear tyres (since upgraded to my Iveco and have not settled on tyre pressure yet). I use my tyre pressure as an extra suspension damper and also keep my speed to the road conditions, rarely above 90km/h, although some roads dictate slower speeds.
