could this camera be used as a rearview instead of a reverse camera

Yes it can be. But you will have to get a rear view mirror with an lcd on it. and have it on at all times when the vehicle is on.

The viewing angle is not wide enough to be used as a rear view. Well this is my personal opinion but you can still try

Yes. But you still have the green, yellow & red guidelines on screen since they are built in the camera.Hope that helps.

Sure,just wire the 12v supply wire to a 12v switched source instead of the wire that only gets 12 volts when in reverse.

Yes, but it is not practical. First, there are times when the light is poor and it would be very hard to see anything in the display. Second, it requires a wired connection, which would be difficult to make attractive if you put it where the rear-view camera goes. Third, it has those lines someone else mentioned. So you can wire it to a circuit which is on whenever the ignition is on, but I don't think you are going to like it for much beyond backing up.

I guess you could but the comment on top said the camera is on the back so it would be hard to do.

Yes you can. It has the backup camera option and comes included in the box.

There in only 1 additional input port for the reverse camera. There is also an output port for a larger display screen.

yes when vehicle is in reverse the picture you see is as if you were looking from back bumper it does not reverse the video i do believe that would be confusing i tried several other cameras before this one the BOYO VTL375HD HD is the best

Yes you can, with both the front and back cameras, but the picture quality is not great either way. For kids, it's ok, not so much for what I wanted it for.

I wouldnt see why not- it merely shows up as a storage device. It comes with software as well, for drivers, ect. to use it as a webcam. For the price, it's quite an incredible camera. I have taken video on my bike at some interesting speeds, and the quality for such a little, inexpensive camera, is amazing!

Yes. It's not quite as good as the rear-facing camera, but it does have one.

You need to have the GPS turned on, If the camera is wired right with the back up lights, the camera will work in reverse gear.

Yes, one of your cameras can be pluged into the controller port for back-up and will give the distance markings. You can also wire that port to the backup lights and the that camera will automatically come on everyte you are in reverse.

Yes it does have reverse camera,but it is not very clear. Looking at yourself looks blurred out.

not sure, but i would not recommend it. After a while, the little glitches get old. Every time you back up, the radio stops and goes to camera mode. The camera is great, but reconnecting blootooth everytime you put the vehicle in reverse is not. Sometimes the volume will be low and randomly get loud as heck. has a mind of it's own.

Yes, I just installed a backup camera on my 2008 Toyota Tundra. You'll need to tie into your reverse light wiring, your reverse signal input and run the RCA cable from the camera to the back of the deck. Not that difficult though and works fine.

I don't see any reason that it couldn't be, but the image might be reversed. The CMOS-320 comes with a front and rear camera, but it's much more expensive. http://www.amazon.com/Kenwood-CMOS-320-Multi-Angle-Rear-Camera/dp/B00J8SGGXU

The camera was designed to be used on the outside of your vehicle. I live in Arizona, so there isn't much water here. My camera is mounted outside, and I use it for security rather than backing up as it was intended. There should be no problem.

Both cameras are built in, you can see it on the picture - rearview is on the right side from the screen

Yes it does have a connection for a backup camera, it switches to the camera screen automatically when you put your car in reverse.Josh
