Really depends on what you want to look at e.g. tow bar for hitching, maybe higher up to see over trailer loads and whats behind or just to see a general area to avoid obstacles when reversing. Giving the camera angles field of view may also determine the best spot for it

Thanks Zagato.

I forgot to put for what I need it

I like to have a general vision of the back (Childrens, other low objects that cannot be seen, etc)

I was thinking in the roof rack, but the view is somehow block by the spare wheel. Eduardo

2011 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 USW Orkney Grey

I think that one is designed to go on a USA style number plate, so would most likely fit in the number plate area, albeit a bit of an "offset" view , or how about just under the door, looks small enough to go there.

Plug it all in and hold the camera in various postions while looking at the monitor. Perhaps stick it here and there with gaffer tape.

I mounted mine inside the hole in the rear crossmember, bonus is I can line the caravan up to hook onto the tow bar. eventho its offset the camera has a 120 degree view so can see everything all around anyway, including the bottom of the spare tyre on the back door which is a little annoying.
