Default Rear-view camera

I have a couple of 7" LCD monitors laying around so I decided to install a Back-up (or rear-view) camera on my truck. I bought a camera for $22 (eBay).

I know that a few of you already have them and I am looking for mounting suggestions for the camera and the monitor. I'm pretty sure that I'm going to mount the monitor on the back of the drivers sun-visor. However, I'm interested in some opinions on the camera placement.

I have a shell on the back of the pick-up and I'm thinking, maybe on the top of the shell, looking down toward the hitch and as far back as I can point it. However, most of the ads that I see have it mounted on the license plate and pointing straight back.

I'd like to hear opinions of people that are actually using them.
