Location for Haloview back-up monitor

Neroado · February 7, 2021

2018 Silverado

I have a Haloview back-up camera system for my travel trailer with a 7" monitor. I'm having a hard time finding a suitable place to mount the monitor since it's so big and also needs to have the antenna stand vertically above it. I mounted it on a sort of cantilevered arm stuck to the dash just above the center stack, but as expected, I couldn't get it to adhere very long despite thoroughly cleaning the surface and using VHB tape. This was an ideal location since it was right above the factory screen and in my line of sight as I scan other things, like navigation. Also, having it in the center of the dash is the most natural place since it basically replaces my rear view mirror with the trailer attached. With the cantilever mount, it was low enough to minimize obstruction of my view over the hood.

I bought the system for another vehicle before I got the truck and it's way past the return date, so I can't easily (inexpensively) switch to a smaller monitor. Does anyone have any pics or descriptions of mounting locations, brackets or mounts that work for a monitor like this? I'd appreciate hearing any ideas. Thanks.

Used this to mount my backup camera monitor. https://coursemotorsports.com/collections/phone-mounts-1/products/chevrolet-gmc-direct-fit-magnetic-phone-mount-1500-2500-3500 Works really well and I use to hold phone when not using my monitor. Can take some pics if needed.

Pics. I added a little piece of foam between the bracket and the dash to keep it from shaking when the monitor is mounted.

mysery1, that looks like a really clean install. I assume that there is a steel pad on the monitor to stick to the mount...

I currently have a ProClip USA phone mount in my truck at the same position. I sent them an inquiry to see if they have a mount for the Haloview slot.
