Ronbo Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 I had a system from Leviathon in my truck. The monitor started acting up. Instead of messing with it, I decided to replace it. I searched for a similar system and found one on eBay. It also has a slot for a SD card. The price seemed reasonable for 2 more cameras and a 9inch monitor. https://m.ebay.com/itm/9-Quad-Monitor-DVR-Recorder-2-x-Side-Camera-Safety-System-For-Truck-Trailer-RV/322629755946?item=322629755946 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPL Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Ronbo Are you replacing the whole system? I like the 4 camera system with the recorder. Do you know anyone who has used that system or are you going to try it? I'll be watching. Hope everything works out.

Ronbo Posted July 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 I am using my existing 2 cameras and will plug them into the new wiring u dear the dash. The old system had 2 cables connected to the monitor, the new ha only 1. The difference is that the power is incorporated in the single cable. I also went with a 9 in monitor and recorder vs a 7 inch and no record. I will get it installed this week and will include an update. The 2 additional cameras I will use for lane change cameras, but won’t install them until it cools down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronbo Posted July 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) Hooked it up today and it works great with existing camera. Now to get a SD card. Edited July 11, 2018 by Ronbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Hicks Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 Rondo, I am in the same boat you were in. My Leviathon monitor is now dead. I also have the multiple cables existing. How did you address the cable issue. I would like to avoid rerouting cables if possible. Is the fit up the same? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronbo Posted July 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 The cable that plugs into the monitor has the power and 5 camera inputs. The connection is the 4 pin camera. I only had to run that one cable from where my camera cables are to the monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
