My Chevrolet Express van Class B- camper
I have been camping in my 1990 Chevrolet Silverado Blazer 2-door for the last 20 years. When I removed the back seat there was just enough room for a 3/4 sized (Hollywood, as some people called them)...

Today's modification to my camper van was the addition of a backup camera. I used a Peak brand with the wireless sending unit so I would not have to run wires from the front to the back. The camera and wireless unit connects to the back up lights for power. I removed the door's interior trim and ran the wires through the wiring harness into the van then back out through the tail light wiring harness to the backup light.
The monitor was mounted on my dash beside my GPS unit. The monitor just needs 12 volt power to receive the signal from the wireless sending unit. I connected its 12 volt power to an ignition controlled circuit so that it only comes on when the ignition is turned on.
I used a metal L-bracket under the trim bolted to the metal underneath the trim so that no holes were drilled in the trim for the mounting.
Works great and gives me another degree of safety in the big van.
