I have a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. How is the view if this is flush mounted in the bumper? Did you take it to the dealer to re-flash the on board

The view is fine. I did not take it to the dealer. A same person that insalled the DVD radio, installed the camera.

I flush mounted mine in the bumper of the 2013 JKUR (aftermarket bumper) and the view is pretty good. Yes, I had to take it to the dealership to get the CPU flashed to have the factory head unit look for a camera when I put the Jeep in reverse. Here's a picture of screen with the camera installed: http://tinyurl.com/kz4vh93 At the bottom of the screen, you see the top part of my tow hitch and at the top, you'll see the bottom of my spare (35x12.50).

MINE IS ROCK SOLID, i flipped my mounting bolts over to the left side, added a drop per bolt of red locktight and after getting it finger tight i ever so slightly tightened mine down a half turn or so past finger tight with a socket.. mines never budged. Even at finger tight mine was on pretty solid with no play or wiggle, is your rail aftermarket ? is it a el-cheapo or a quality rail ? is a factory rail on a AR ? im guessing the problem is not the optic.. however you never know. do other mounts fit you rail solid without issue ? contact Lucid.. they are flat out awesome to work with !

I have a 2011 wrangler unlimited. I have the amitty built xrc mod front bumper. As long as the xrc will for the 2014 it should work perfect.

given that you need a waterproof cover, I don't think it can be flush mounted. I guess you could recess it and install a clear shield that is flush in the dashboard. this has a remote so that would work. good luck.

I've got it on a 93 with 4 inch lift on 33's. Its been good so far except it compleatly blocks the rear view mirror with the spare on. Have to get new side views now so I can drive without doors. It was a bitch to install, had to drop gas tank and drill new holes but once all that was done it went on great. Looks good. Holds a 33 in tire, getting 35's soon but shouldn't be an issue. Its solid, looks good and I think worth the price. Arrived with all parts in package. Haven't had to use it for recovery yet so cant tell ya if its going to get snatched off or not.... hope not. So far so good, id reccommend it. Hope this helps I've got it on a 93 with 4 inch lift on 33's. Its been good so far except it compleatly blocks the rear view mirror with the spare on.

The frame is hard mounted to the car. We had to modify the front since the previous owner of the jeep had cutaway too much of the dash. The adjustable depth are the two side mounts, the kit worked very well for us.

I'd say the picture is pretty accurate. The camera is angled down some so you don't see much sky. The picture in the description doesn't show the rear bumper which I can see clearly on my truck, helps a lot if you're backing up close to something.

I doesn't really matter. I just installed mine in my bumper of a standard height Nissan Frontier. It's a wide angle lense...you get used to the view pretty quickly. Do keep in mind that the closer to the center of the car the better as far as being left-to-right aligned. Mine is a little off to the right but it's not an issue. Can't beat this little camera for the money. I was joking with my wife about a new car commercial that boasted a rear view camera "included"

Mine does due to installing the camera in a custom tailgate handle I also purchased through Amazon. The tailgate handle has a camera in it that is angled so I can see from my bumper and outward. The installation process was not difficult. Hope this helps, good luck.

I mounted to the floor since there was no place to mount it on the dash. I thought about mounting on top but didn't want to distract my view out the windshield. I have no rear view mirror so was going to mount it there but was short on time so went for the easy mount on to the floor.

I have the rubicon kit, and the stock frame mounts are just slightly closer together than the posts for the bumper. I use an F250 cab body, so the bumper is about halfway out, so the posts bend just slightly and manage to fit just fine.

i just installed mine today and it would appear that they've fixed the issue. no drilling, no need to even jack it into place. it went on both sides perfectly for a 2015 wrangler unlimited. for all the complaints on here, i thought i put them on wrong lol but they fit perfect.

I have not had it that deep because I don't have the extension on due to my lights but I have had it above the fender flares with the low mount and it did great. Had very little water in the catch drain after and my filter was dry. I will say if u get it avoid the silicone in the instructions as it makes putting together a pain and the clamps hold back radiator pressure so there is no point on an intake. All in all this thing was straight forward on the install and one of the best mods I have done to my JK, but I do have all relocated breather ports, axle seals, and sealed fuse box, and fan.

Assuming you have a stock bumper, all I can gather is that you have the main carrier assembly installed 180 degrees from how it should be.

Hi casey-- been running this bumper for 2 years on my 2012. And it's held up great!This should fit a 2014 with no problem... I'm on wrangler forum as kpickens11 friend me there if you have any additional questions

It is completely concealed within the rear bumper. If you're insinuating that there is drag as a result of installing this, which would decrease mileage, that has not been observed. This should be the absolute least concern. The hitch is great!

On top of the cab overlooking the bed would be an easy spot with self tapping screwed. Or on the tailgate again with screwes and a quick disconnect if you wanted to take the tailgate off.. I dont think you would want to mount it any lower as it may not give the view you would want. You could if you wanted mount under the bumper you would need to put a strong and very large like 4 or 5 inch wide and deep U channel around it to protect it
