Depending on your use, our monitors come in 2 main categories, the first is a dash mount screen that ranges from 3.5-12-inch (Most people buy the 7-inch) and is mean to mounted on your dash, it is very popular in vehicles that have a lot of dash space.
The second screen type is the clip on mirror, this is available in sizes from 7-10.5-inch (most people buy the 7-inch), it’s been designed to clip on to any existing mirror and when not in use, it look like a regular mirror but when the backup camera is active the mirror turns into a beautiful LCD screen.
