How Are Factory Monitor Screens Measured To Determine Correct Third Brake Light Camera System
Question:
Im looking at a truck bed camera for my 2018 GMC 3500. The options for 7 or 8 screen I assume are diagonal measurement? My screen is 7 across and 8 diagonal. Which cam set up is recommended?

Expert Reply:
Yes, the factory monitor is measured diagonally corner to corner. If your screen is 8" diagonally you need is Custom Third Brake Light Camera for 8" Factory Monitor part # 3460010. This will give you a third brake light camera in the 2018 GMC Sierra 3500 with a 150-degree viewing angle for easy fifth wheel or gooseneck trailer hook up. It also comes with a switch kit that allows you to toggle back and forth between the bed camera or backup camera. I have attached a video for your reference.
