The view on the nav screen includes the license place from above, and the lower left corner of the image is snipped off. I went back to thwe camera to see what I could see, and found that the lower left part of the image snipped off is because the camera is recessed and the bumper blocks that area a little bit. Seeing the license plate from above is interesting - that is on very closer camera. I tried to wiggle the camera and it was definite not going anywhere sp that was not the issue.

Is the camera I tried to wiggle the entire camera or just the housing?
Is what I am seeing the correct view? Is there a way to calibrate it?
Why does this crack me up? Oh, it is because the rear camera only works when in reverse, thus one can only use it when backing up.

Lots of big truck guys use backup cameras as backup cameras and as "is my hitch still fastened-really"? Cameras, haha. Good idea actually.
