Automotive Camera & Backup Systems
Backup Camera Installation in Burlington, NC
See what's behind you and in your blind spots with a professionally installed system. Cars & Truckware fits automotive cameras to your vehicle across the Piedmont Triad.
When Your Vehicle Needs a Backup Camera Installation
A backup camera gives you a clear view of what's directly behind your vehicle, something mirrors alone can't always show, especially with a loaded truck bed, a tall SUV, or a trailer hitched up. Many newer vehicles come with one factory installed, but plenty of trucks, work vans, and older models on Burlington roads still rely on mirrors and guesswork alone.
Drivers usually come to us for a backup camera install after one of these situations comes up:
- Backing a trailer or camper and needing a wider, clearer field of view
- A factory backup camera has stopped working or shows a blurry, distorted image
- A truck bed cap, cargo carrier, or bed liner is blocking the rear window sightline
- Adding a camera to a work van used for deliveries or job sites around Greensboro or Raleigh
- Wanting extra visibility for a teen driver or a new-to-you used vehicle
- Pairing a rearview camera with other automotive customization, like a tonneau cover or ladder rack
If any of that sounds familiar, a camera system is a straightforward upgrade with a real safety payoff.
Why Choose Us
Why Choose Cars & Truckware Over a Full Body Shop
Backup camera installation is a fit for a shop that works on wiring, dash electronics, and interior trim every day, not one set up for collision repair and long paint booth schedules. As "Your Body Shop Alternative," we handle this kind of work without the overhead, the waiting list, or the runaround of a bigger facility.
Here's what that means for you:
-
Faster scheduling than a body shop juggling collision jobs and insurance paperwork
-
A team that also handles auto glass repair, dent and ding repair, and auto accessory installation, so we understand how a camera bracket or wiring harness interacts with the rest of your vehicle
-
Free estimates before any work begins, with no pressure to add services you don't need
-
Clean wiring runs that avoid interfering with existing systems like backup sensors or trailer hitch wiring
-
Walk-ins welcome if you'd rather have a look and ask questions in person
-
Local, family-owned service that's been part of Burlington since 1991

How Backup Camera Installation Works
Most backup camera jobs move quickly, and we'll walk you through the camera and monitor options before anything gets mounted or wired.
- 01
Free Estimate and Camera Selection
Bring your vehicle by 953 S Mebane St, Burlington, NC 27215 or call ahead. We'll talk through your vehicle, how you use it, and which camera and display setup fits best.

Mounting and Wiring
Our techs mount the camera at the rear of your vehicle and run wiring cleanly to your dash or mirror display, keeping it out of sight and protected from moisture and vibration.

Once installed, we calibrate the display and test the camera in real driving conditions, checking the image, angle, and night visibility before you leave the lot.
- 04
Walkthrough and Pickup
We show you how the system works, answer any questions, and get you back on the road. Most standard backup camera installs are completed the same day, and special-order camera systems are typically ready within 24 to 48 hours.

Been using these guys for over 20 years they have did everything from light body work to putting on step rails and bed covers. I have always been 100% satisfied with their work. I've read some of the negative reviews here and they would not have done damage to a car and not fixed it Barry is a honest and straight forward person.
