Default GPS with a backup camera for a H1

i need some help on picking the right GPS for my new beast, please

i can see out of the S just fine, however, i'd like a little help when I'm maneuvering the H1 on small streets.

i decided that a GPS that has a backup camera attached to it would do this, AND give me... well, GPS!!!

which model do I need? can I buy a package that will work well together? (GPS/camera). it would be nice to get a large screen 7"+
note: the license plate is on the left, so the cameras that use the bracket need to be adjustable, i guess

any ideas?

I have a Kenwood DNX7100 in my Xterra, and I love it. I primarily chose it because it uses Garmin (non-dvd) navigation and had a nice big 7" screen. Kenwood also makes a nice waterproof backup camera. It is mountable anywhere, not just by the license plate. I personally think the best mounting location is near the top of the back window in the center, but that's just me. Also, a friend of mine just picked up a new Clarion nav model, but I don't know which one. It also has solid state navigation (non-dvd).

The Clarion NZ409 and NZ500 both have navigation, and they are single DIN units with foldout screens. Also, rearview cameras are compatible between manufacturers if you want to mix and match.

I would go with Clarion, Eclipse, or Pioneer. I am a Alpine guy myself but the stuff they have been putting out lately sucks.
