Default Backup camera: Tail light replacement

I have a 2004 Express van. I've installed the Pioneer AVIC X1 system. Now I would like to attach a backup camera to the system. I really would like something like this:

That is, a 3rd brake light replacement system. Does anyknow know if there is such a system that fits my Express van?
Regards, Ola Resell

I have not seen a system that uses the 3rd brake light , but I was looking at the Visor View system, http://www.visorview.com/index.html. Have you looked at this one? I am looking for a dealer in the metro Detroit area.

I haven't looked at Visorview, because I already have an LCD screen, and the wiring for the camera is in place. I just want a nice looking (stock appearing) camera, and the position that will give the best view will be above the doors. So a brake light replacement kit would be perfect There exist such kits for some Ford SUVs, and also the Avalanche I think, so why haven't i found any for the Express

I called dealer and they have no clue as to what I was talking about. It must be an aftermarket company.

A kind of frame license plate lights installed in the position, which is easier to install, simply use the camera accessories to provide a small screw inside the camera lights fixed position in the license can be. By parts in the iron or gaskets and the like to adjust to achieve the best car backup camera angle. camera line through the license light penetration inside the gap, and reversing lamp power and video extension cable. This type of installation is the reversing camera A popular, look more subtle, more easily installed.
The other is drilling to install, embedded inside the bumper, the benefits of this approach is not in the car’s metal parts on the drill. Because the bumper is plastic, the camera alignment is relatively easy.
