I took a few more pictures to give everyone an idea of the totality of this thing.



Have to leave extra wires so the hatch can still open. Not sure if I'll try to secure the wires out of the way or not.


Can't open the gate all the way with the ladder on the roof.


Rear camera rotates. I have it pointed pretty far down because I'm more interested in using it as a back-up camera than for viewing out the back. As you can see from the video I posted above, even pointed way down, it still picks up plenty of what's going on behind.


A note about the video above. I had the camera set so the image was not mirrored as reviewing video from the rear camera is not disorienting. However, when actually looking in the preview screen with the rear camera not mirrored IS disorienting. I switched it back as the rear camera is more usable if everything appears reversed as if I'm looking into a mirror. I figure if I ever need to review anything, I'll just flip the video in whatever media player.
