I have installed two kenwood cameras on my two different 2007 Tahoes. I would like to add a back up camera to my 2007 NBS Silverado. However, I dont think the kenwood style cameras would work because I dont see a good mounting location.
Has anyone installed a camera on the NBS Silverados? What camera? Anyone have a back up camera from the factory?
Pictures of the cameras installed and make/brand of aftermarket cameras would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I installed a Tahoe Nav.system that was RVC ready. I got a Kenwood CCD2000 & put the camera in a hole I drilled above the bumper. The tail gate & bumper limit your view ,but you can still see very well (Just not up or down) I used the people out of Houston for hook up help. Forgive me I forgot there name,but they were more than helpfull.

Speedy I was going to mount my camera where you want to. The problem I ran into was the mount is scrwed to the camera, so you can weld the factory braket on, but then you have to screw the camera to the mount. The problem is the screws come in from the side & there is not enough room to get them started. If you Fab. your own mount and make it stick out of the hitch (wish I had done that) then it would be a snap.
