Yes this camera is designed to be clipped over your existing rear view mirror, via 2 rubber bands. I personally do not like the look or idea of that and wanted a clean factory look. This is why I left the factory rear view mirror base on the windshield and sourced a special Ram mount and modified it so I could install the new mirror in place of the factory mirror. All in the details. I have not fully setup the mirror yet. Waiting in the power cable for the backup camera. I'll link the mirror I bought below along with the Ram mount below:
Pending updates with regards to the transmission. Ashcroft needs me to verify the serial number on my transmission. I wonder if all transmissions installed in 2004 D2's have the same serial number? I have a spare tranny in storage for my old 04 D2. Not sure if I could just give them the serial number from that and be set, or maybe each unit has it's own unique code.
In the mean time for is an update on the wheels situation. I've sourced 4 new RRC114560MUW wheels and sent them out to be sand blasted, zinc primed and powder coated white. This time I went to a different shop as I was not impressed with the work performed by the first shop I went to for my Terrafirma steel wheels. I still need to hunt down one more RRC114560MUW wheel to make a complete set but at least I can get these wheels installed and be safe again.
I'm very happy with how the wheels came out and I plan on having my mantec raised air intake and sd roof rack done by the same shop in the near future. This shop was very flexible and gave me a discounted price in exchange for the 5 old damaged Terrafirma steel wheels. So with the discount I'm paying $450 for 5 wheels sand blasted, zinc primed and powder coated white. Not bad at all. The first shop I went to quoted me $464 but ended up charging me $600.
Who supplied your wheels? Seems the supply may have dried up the last few years. I can only find old rusty ones on the UK ebay site.
