DieselDevilDog Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 We both retired and moved from Michigan to Georgia. Trying to keep all the limited money in check. We bought a 2018 Journey Crossroad and got a very good deal on it. It did not come with a back up camera. I really want one very badly. So I called the dealership parts guy and he suggested an audio shop in Chattanooga, TN. Which is right across the border from our home in Northwestern Georgia. He said for about $900 installed and it would be a perfect system just like it came on the car. He said the unit itself was around $550 or so. Will have to save up for a while to have this installed . Comments/suggestions/advice appreciated................................ diesel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2late4u Posted July 28, 2018 Report Share Posted July 28, 2018 has been discussed here a lot you can go with org oem back up cam for a lot less. i assume you have the 8.4 screen cam from mopar is somewhere about 350. and about 150-200 for install and then its covered under your 3/36 warranty check the threads under the forums for more info.

bramfrank Posted July 30, 2018 Report Share Posted July 30, 2018 IMO, if you are looking to conserve money then spending anything for a backup camera flies in the face of the concept. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT the same thing was said when i had my 2011 journey they said no back up cam they had would work on it when i first bought it new but about the yr later then it all of a sudden it was listing a part # for my 2011.... have a feeling they dont update their part # to include the newest model, get with your dealership as if they had to repair a 2018 back up cam they would have to order the part and i bet it would be the old part #....you could buy it and run the wires and then just pay the dealership to flash it. has been discussed in the forum under settings check them out.

bramfrank Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 I have no clue what the point of your meme is. You said you were looking to save money, yet were willing to spend what seemed to be $900 for a backup camera - the 2 concepts are pretty much mutually exclusive. It isn't as if a backup camera is a necessity of life. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
