Backup Camera aka Dirt Magnet (1 Viewer)

[prasta]

Hoping the hive mind has come up with some creative solutions for keeping the backup camera clear. Aside from selling my house, and moving somewhere that doesn't rely on a dirt road for access, what are y'all doing to keep your backup camera free of debris? Quick thumb swipe before every voyage? Rain-x? Those dirt bike goggle tear-off things?

99% of the time, mine looks like this....

It’s the old thumb swipe for me. Maybe someone here has a better way.....

I pee on mine, keeps it clean and I feel better. Bonus keeps the neighborhood dogs away from the tires.

My nephew works for a company that specializes in washer nozzles. I swear. They make them for all the major manufacturers, he travels to the plants a lot.

Anyway, the last time I saw him, he showed me a nozzle they make now for Cadillac SUVs that mounts on the lip by the camera, it squirts washer fluid at high pressure on the camera, then a puff of air to blow it clean. Not kidding, it was pretty slick. Maybe you could adapt one?

Same.

Same. Or just don't use it. I never look at the screen just use the mirrors. Or do the arm on the passenger seat head turn.

It’s actually disgusting how much debris accumulates on the trunk.
