I have done a spare delete (meaning it's not on the door). The tire is inside the vehicle and stands vertical on the right hand side strapped to the roll bar. As part of other changes I'm making up a new cover panel over the tailgate vents and adding some extra lighting. The backup camera is mounted temporarily for now. How tight a bend can the cabling take? I assume it's some sort of fibre optic cable. It really sticks a long way out from the rear of the camera. For anyone that's done a spare delete, did the camera get mounted on a different angle or was the cable/connector modified in any way? Is there a 90* adapter available for the cable connection?

For others;
My rear camera is just a dash cam stuck inside the rear window and powered(for now)by the rear 12v socket.
I didn't want to run the cable from my front cam.
