Hello All,

I am looking for a good night vision backup camera system for my 2005 Honda Odyssey EX-L mini-van. Unfortunately, I don't have any NAVI so I'll also need a screen. Please recommend me some good backup camera system. I saw couple of cameras on ebay and Amazon but I am not sure which ones are good for 05 Odyssey. Thank you in advance for your help!

Have you considered the parking assistance accessory. I'm sure you could probably retrofit a camera system if you wanted to, but I know the sensors package exists.

While we're talking about alternatives, I got a fresnel lens sheet that works wonders and cost less than 20$. If you don't know what it is, it is basically a sheet of plastic with grooves that act like a lens. The same technology was used in lighthouses and old time school projectors.

Here is a site with information about this kind of thing (not the brand I have, no relation, just first link in Google...):

I have an 05 EX-L w/o NAV. Just bought a pioneer AVH 3200BT stereo. It is a double din DVD player with the option of GPS (for $250 xtra). Checkout Crutchfield for details. I ordered a Boyo backup camera too. My next weekend project will be to install these.

I plan on posting the results after the install. I'd appreciate any tips from anyone who has installed an aftermarket backup camera on an Odyssey.

Please let us know how the Boyo camera works out - I was looking at that camera too, now that I've installed the 3200BT. Thanks!
