Holly Hill, FL - November 2017 – Metra Electronics® to receive a 2018 SEMA Global Media Award for a new Replacement Mirror Monitor and Camera Kit by iBeam Vehicle Safety Systems®. An esteemed panel of international media judges chose this product based on its level of international consumer appeal, and selected it as one of the best products at this year’s SEMA Show.

The new Replacement Mirror Monitor and Camera Kit by iBeam, the TE-CMC-K3,  includes a rear-view mirror with an integrated 4.5 inch LCD screen that displays backup camera footage, but only when the vehicle is in reverse. Two temperature sensors display the inside and outside temperature on the mirror, along with an integrated compass. Two video inputs allow for a rear-view camera and secondary video feed. The kit includes a behind the license plate backup camera with night vision featuring four LED lights and a 170 degree viewing angle. It shows active parking lines when the vehicle is turning in reverse to help avoid objects. The square camera housing is water resistant.

iBeam’s new Mirror Replacement Kits have 20 different camera and mirror monitor options available, which can also be purchased separately. The TE-CMC-K3 is a universal kit that maintains the factory look. The most widely used windshield mount is included for easy mirror installation. Optional, vehicle specific mirror mounts are available for Ford, GM, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota, Kia, Subaru, VW, Mercedes, Fiat, Iveco and Peugeot models, which make installation even easier as the factory base mount does not need to be removed from the windshield.
