Here is a photo of the camera at work.

It is VERY fish eye but that does allow me to see my rear bumper bar as well as a long way back. Its probably just a matter of getting used to it. Upgrading my Video Module will also give me wide screen and remove the need to switch on the TV first. Grounding Pin 17 just isn't enough in my case.
