Hello everyone, please take a look at the images below. The first is the OEM reverse camera. If you notice, you can see clearly both sides of the bumper, top of the bumper and a clear view out from the bumper. This is the image I want for my front camera. Granted, the front one I installed is pretty cheap. The rest of the images are a couple different scenarios of the front cam. It only goes to about 15' and you of course cannot see the corners of the front of the truck. Yes, I know there is a slight curvature but it could be better than this.

Specs say 170° but have to be wrong. The OEM is 170° which you can clearly see.

So, for all those of you with aftermarket cameras installed, post up some images and your overall experiences with your setup.

Considering getting another OEM from Car-Part but I would like to keep it as small as possible to stay in the Ram emblem.

Thanks!

It was doing ok until moisture got in. Turns out a rock or something cracked the lens. The newer one I have now is much better but this one definitely offered better adjustment for different applications.
