    I don't understand the wireless camera when you have to still plug it in. Might as well just run the cable and plug it in all the same and easier.

    Possibly because the power comes from the reefer unit, and wireless video eliminates the need to connect a video cable from the trailer to the truck?

    Stainless Carriage bolts through the walls from the outside with silicone for extra weather protection attaching a bracket inside? The same but reversed of how you might add an oversize light to the top of your cab.

    I dont actually know because im a flatbedder, but thats what i would do
     
    Beaver9 and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

    Mine has some beef up inside on sides and will be mounting to that area. If nothing else I would put a bracket in place and silicon and rivet it in place.
