Default HitchCAM

Has anyone installed the HitchCAM rear view camera system to their JK?

Ordered my camera today. I am getting ready to install one similar to the pictures below:

I have the same head unit as Simon does on page 3. I am just going to mount mine down low so I can use it to hook up my trailer.

Yeah, I've read that write-up by DBB888! It was great, but I'm not sure I'm up to anymore wiring, at least not for a while (I recently did the DVD monitor one and that was enough for me!). The HitchCAM looked interesting so I wondered if anyone has used it.

Be careful you don't drag your trailer hitch across the ground or on a rock while driving off-road. I don't have any experience with the hitch cam, but I have snapped other plastic doodads mounted in the trailer hitch to pieces while driving off-road.
