Where to mount a rear camera when you have tire carrier.

[Irish Reiver]

I have a 4x4Labs rear swing out bumper with a 315 hanging off it. I also have a jerry can holder on the other side. Inside the truck i have the "loft" which is just a shelf mounted on some brackets I fabbed up and attached to where the rear roof handles were.
Bottom line is that my rear mirror is more or less useless. In reality this doesn't bother me so much but the kids are nervous reversing into parking spaces and the like.
I was toying with getting a Wolfbox however it isn't clear to me where or how you would mount the rear camera.

I did some searching on the subject but almost all the results are about how to mount the actual display which with the @delta mirror bracket makes it a simple job.
There are a few people who have mounted the camera where the license plate would be but for me that is not possible due to the tire.
The articulation of the hatch (and the rear spoiler) limit a few of the other options.

So my question is, has anybody with a plethera of equipment bolted to the back of their truck ever mounted one of these rear camera solutions and if so where did you mount the camera.

I am scratching my head on this.

I have both a wolf box and an Alpine head unit w/backup cam.

I mounted the wolf box camera inside the rear hatch glass under the 3rd brake light. I 3D Printed a little enclosure for it to make it look a bit more finished, and cut the tint out of the glass so the camera can see through it. Turned out pretty good, and visibility is good. Its not nearly as high-definition as the video rearview camera in my 2026 Tundra, but its passable for a 30 year old cruiser for sure.

The Alpine head unit camera is mounted on the underside of the jerry can rack on my 4x4Labs swing out. It's just "OK". The Camera and head unit clarity isn't the best (Again compared to the 14" screen in the new Tundra) and it gets washed out pretty bad in the sun. Nighttime visibility is really dependent on ambient light. Any bright headlamps or even my own reverse lamps make that one go wonky.
