    Extension cable for the Garmin BC 35 backup camera

    We have a 2021 Reflection 303rls. We have wired up the Garmin BC35 camera in the furrion mount, and have paired it with our RV890 GPS. The result has been choppy, erratic video. Sometimes its' great, such as when sitting still and going slowly downhill. Garmin doesn't make an extension cable for this camera and it's a proprietary 6 pin connector. We need to get that wireless transmitter up closer to the cab of the truck in hopes of getting better video. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance!

    Lots of us have problems with the wireless cameras. Usually when trying to use them while driving. They seem to much better when stopped or going slowly.

    I put a longer antenna on my camera with not so good results. The antenna needs to be closer to the tow vehicle. There are kits to do this. I saw some on Amazon when searching; that's where I got my taller antenna.

    Unfortunately I think with the Garmin camera you are kinda out of luck using an aftermarket antenna with it.
