Placement of rear view / backup camera?

For those of you who have installed a rearview camera on your Scamps, can you share a picture or describe where and how you mounted it?

I want one primarily to see the lane behind me while traveling, but also as a secondary aid for backing up.

Picture Selection

I will be adding MY Garmin BC30 to the rear of my 13 when I get it home in a couple weeks. but the camera only relays a picture when the reverse lights are on unless I add a secondary/different power/trigger source. How will you select between traveling and reversing?

Power Source For Camera Switching Views

I have a suggestion for the power source switching. I purchased a BRXRC12V4C20 from www.brazix.com. This is a Wireless Remote Control Switch with 4 channels, 12V DC. I have yet to get back on my project, but basically I was just going to use it for viewing my trailer hitch when connecting. I planned on plugging into the rear power port on my Jeep Commander. I figured I could get the 12 volts needed without any surgery to the Jeep wires.
