Retrofit Backup Camera Possible?

[AzSierra]

Hi all,

I'm a new Yukon owner and new to the forums. I've so enjoyed my '04 Sierra SLT-2 that I've been trying to convince my wife we should look for a Tahoe or Yukon similarly equipped. She enjoys driving our Sierra but thought a Yukon would be "too big". Last week I finally prevailed and we purchased a very nice low mileage '06 Yukon XL Denali. She loves it as do I. It's all of 1" wider and 7 1/2" longer than her Mercury Marquis and about 7 1/2" shorter than our Sierra. So much for "too big".

Does anyone know if it's possible to install a backup camera system on the Denali? Her chief concern is backing up. She's learning to use the mirrors but I was thinking this might be helpful to her. It's no big deal to me, I've driven a truck all my life including some very large commercial rigs so I learned to use the mirrors and back them up.

I think the new ones, the 'o8's are coming with backup cameras and proximity sensors, are they not?

Any suggestions or advice will be appreciated.

Thanks much.

welcome, and AWSOME CHOICE, i would have gone with the denali xl except i needed a true 4wd, awd would not cut it for me. post pics btw :cool2:



, you can do a quick and easy wireless camera that screws in to the licence plate with a seperate screen on the dash http://www.roadmasterusa.com/backupcamera_vr3.php, or you can have someone hard wire a camera, possably in to the nav system but most likely on a seperate monitor someware. this will give you a more perminet set up and most likely a better signal feed because there will be no interference

btw, they had the camera on any 07 with nav if you opted for it. same with the back up sensors, which can also be added btw.

Thanks for the response and info. My inclination would be to have this done if I'm going to the same time I have the alarm installed.
