Side camera..

Has any one installed a side camera on a 05 SouthWind. I am thinking of installing one on my passenger side as a short term fix to the Southwind know fogging issues of the double pane windows.

I'm not really understanding what you're after. Is it so you can see that side before changing lanes due to not being able to see the mirror clearly? If so I installed a 3 camera system from Rear View Safety connecting the side cameras to the turn signals. Replacing the Weldex rear camera with a color unit and adding the side camera was pretty easy. I mounted each side camera below the mirrors so when I need to change lanes I can check the monitor as well as the mirrors for clearance. It's just another level of safety. Even though my coach is a Bounder there isn't much difference for this type of installation. I've also installed this type 3 camera system on a Winnebago Sightseer that was pretty much the same in front. So if this is what you're after it's pretty easy to do but it is a permanent installation. Another question, would it not be just as cheap to replace the cloudy window instead of going to the trouble of temporarily installing a camera?

I opted to replace the window on mine when I bought it, you could not use the passenger side mirror in low light conditions at night.

I will be taking care of the foggy glass on the driver side before the start of the up coming season.

Thompson RV in Los Angeles supplied the complete window assembly and I replaced it when I got home.

I would like to have the camera system as a back up.
