Backup (Rear View) Camera - Ep 2 | Mercedes Sprinter

Taylor and I recently bought a 2015 Mercedes 170” Cargo Sprinter Van, with plans to convert it into a home on wheels. Our goal is to take this van all over North America eventually reaching Alaska. To help inspire others, we are documenting our journey and each step of our van build, creating video tutorials on youtube along the way. This is the 2nd episode of our van build series, which covers how to install a backup (rearview) camera to your sprinter van and likely applies to other vans as well.
