What LeeKooLuu makes, and who it is for

Everything in this catalog exists to put the ground behind a vehicle in front of the person reversing it. The card tells you the screen size, how the picture gets to the front and what the case is rated for before it tells you anything else, because those are the three things a photograph on white cannot settle.

LeeKooLuu makes the reversing camera you fit yourself. Not the one that arrives in a new car, and not the one a workshop quotes you for on a car that never had it: a boxed kit with the camera, the monitor, the cable and the brackets in it, meant to be on the vehicle by the end of an afternoon.

What is in the range

The LeeKooLuu selection splits in two by how the picture reaches the front. The wired kits run a video cable from the plate to the dash and cannot drop out. The wireless kits put a 2.4 GHz pair between the two ends and save you the run through the cabin, at the cost of a signal that has to cross a steel body. Screens run 4.3, 5 and 7 inches, and the pictures are 1080p apart from one 2K kit.

Then the systems built for length. A camper or a fifth wheel puts forty feet and a refrigerator between the camera and the monitor, so those kits are rated in hundreds of feet and carry seven-inch screens, and the largest of them takes up to four cameras, so the curb side can sit on the screen beside the hitch. One of them drops straight onto a Furrion bracket, for rigs that left the factory pre-wired.

And then the things the makers at LeeKooLuu keep beside the systems rather than inside them: cameras that pair with a monitor you already own, a camera pointed at a rear-facing child seat, and the cables, power adapters, filters and mounts that finish a job or bring an old one back to life.

Who it is for

Somebody with a vehicle that has no camera and a driveway to fit one in. That is a wider group than it sounds: an older car with a big rear pillar, a van whose back doors are solid, a pickup with a bed you cannot see over, a camper reversed onto a pitch by one person while the other stands somewhere behind it. What those have in common is that the picture is not there and nobody is going to fit it for free.

That buyer decides what a card carries. Screen size, how the picture travels and the weatherproofing rating come first, the cable length is a figure rather than a guess, and the limits stand next to the specifications: which monitor only wakes in reverse, which link struggles across a loaded trailer, which camera pairs with which system and with nothing else.

What a camera does, and what it does not

A camera puts the ground behind the bumper on a screen, by day and after dark, the moment the selector goes into reverse. It will not brake for you, it will not watch for you, and it does not make reversing safe. The federal standard that made cameras compulsory on new vehicles exists precisely because reversing hurts people, and the honest thing a picture does is show you the ground, not watch it for you.

Two federal texts stand behind what the equipment is measured against: the rear-visibility standard on what a rearview image has to show and how quickly, and the rule every unlicensed 2.4 GHz radio operates under, the one that makes a wireless picture accept interference. Both are linked in full on the updates page.

LeeKooLuu has built these kits since 2016. Everything else worth knowing about a kit is on its card, and how the figures on those cards are kept current is set out on how we update the catalog.

About the brand

What people ask about LeeKooLuu

What does LeeKooLuu make?

Backup camera systems for vehicles that did not come with one: a camera, the monitor it is paired with, and either a cable or a 2.4 GHz link between them. Around that sit the add-on cameras, the baby car cameras, and the cables, adapters and mounts that keep a fitted system working.

How long has LeeKooLuu been around?

Since 2016, which is 10 years of building the same kind of kit: complete, fitted by the owner rather than by a dealer, and cheap enough that the part which finishes the job is a twelve-dollar cable.

Is LeeKooLuu the same as the cameras built into new cars?

No. A factory system is certified by the vehicle manufacturer against the federal rear-visibility standard. These are aftermarket kits for vehicles that have no camera at all, and this catalog does not claim certification it does not hold.

Where is LeeKooLuu sold?

Through our retail partner, which is where every buying button on this site leads. Payment, delivery, warranty and returns all happen there rather than here.
