A seamless addition
Looking for a backup cam worthy of your vehicle's sleek exterior? Crux's CUB-15 backup camera mounts cleanly on cars with a lip-style overhang above the license plate.
Everything you need to backup
Crux supplies a flush-mounting system and 20' feet of cable to connect the camera to your receiver. Once installed, you'll gain a full color 170° view of what's behind you. Manual vertical adjustment makes it easy to get the view you're counting on. You also get parking lines for easier reversing into tight spaces. The camera's included video cable plugs into the standard composite video on any car stereo with a compatible video screen.
Note: The CUB-15 can only be used as a backup camera. It can't reverse its image.

Features
Rear-View Camera: The Crux CUB-15 rear-view camera can be installed in a variety of vehicles with an aftermarket in-dash multimedia or navigation receiver installed. Your aftermarket receiver must feature an integrated video monitor and a composite video camera input. The camera allows you to view what's behind you on your in-dash receiver's video monitor when you put your vehicle in reverse.
Note: The Crux CUB-15 rear-view camera is meant as a back-up aid only; never solely rely on the rear-view camera when backing-up. In addition to using the rear-view camera, always look behind you to make sure everything is clear when backing up your vehicle.
Image Sensor & Lens: The Crux CUB-15 rear-view camera features a CCD image sensor that offers 480 lines of resolution. The bright f/1.2 lens has 170° (horizontal) x 90° (vertical) viewing angle. The minimum illumination is 0.4 Lux.
Park Assist Lines: The rear-view camera provides parking assist lines on the screen of your vehicle's in-dash aftermarket monitor. These parking lines are there to assist you when backing up into a parking space. There are two vertical lines which help you judge the left and right edges of the parking space and your vehicle. There are also 3 color-coded horizontal lines that are used to distinguish how close you are getting to the end of the parking spot - Green (Clear), Yellow (Getting Close), Red (Very Close).
Note: You can remove the Park Assist Lines by connecting together the two exposed white wires on the camera's cable.
Waterproof Housing: The Crux CUB-15 rear-view camera features a IP67 waterproof housing.
Flush-Mount Installation: You will need to drill a 7/8" (22.5mm) hole in your vehicle's rear exterior panel. The rear-view camera mounts in this opening and features an integrated spring-loaded mounting bracket which secures the camera in place.
Note: Make sure you have the camera orientated correctly so the image is displayed correctly on your receiver's screen.
Connections: The rear-view camera features an attached 4' power/signal cable and comes with a 20' video cable with attached 3' power/ground wires. At the end of the video cable is a male RCA composite video plug, which connects to the composite, rear-view camera input of your head unit. The power (red) & ground (black) wires will need to be hardwired. Power can be obtained from your vehicle's reverse light circuit or from the +12V accessory wire of your aftermarket stereo (if applicable). The ground will need to be connected to your vehicle's metal chassis.
