gonesail Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 (edited) we own a 2011 ford edge SEL with backup camera that looks to be non standard. I was getting ready to replace it and noticed that my camera does not look like the one that is recommended for my vehicle. After taking a closer look .. I think it is standard .. I was looking at it from the wrong angle. Edited April 18, 2023 by gonesail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabangsta Posted April 18, 2023 Report Share Posted April 18, 2023 Dorman and others also have aftermarket replacements for ~$150 as well. I had decent luck with a Dorman replacement on a Fusion, it lasted longer than the factory one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
