    Hey guys,

    I'm planning on installing a backup camera on my 2010 tundra.
    I have a walk-in camper shell so no tailgate.
    I was thinking about installing a license plate camera instead and looking for recommendations.

    This is what I found:
    https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08MV58JGT

    I like the slimmer look so I don't bump into it when loading and unload the bed.
    Unfortunately it says that the power wiring is towards the dash and not the rear of the vehicle, which I find a little odd, since it would be so easy to just tap into the back up lights.

    Anyways, any suggestions for other models would be appreciated!
    Looking to stay under $100 but with decent image and build quality.

    Thanks

    Heres one that looks similar but has a 2 plug system so you can attach power to the reverse lights at the rear of the vehicle. The one you linked has a single plug and single wire that is meant to be powered by an aftermarket head unit and be a cleaner install.
