Another camera thread. This is not an endorsement because it is untested beyond initial install and impressions.
I picked up one of those Carplay/Android Auto dash cams off marketplace for fifty bucks. I've been wanting to put something in my little Kubota cab and this looks ideal. It is 4" high by 10" wide. Doesn't take up much space on the dash ands doesn't' obstruct my view out the windshield. It is supposedly up to 4K front and 1080P rear. Default it was set to 2K front and I just left it at that. This one is branded Cinandrow but I don't see any for sale anywhere and an email to their service address asking for a user manual went unanswered. I've seen similar units advertised for $70 to $140.
The front camera can be raised or lowered and also rotates. I won't be using anything but the rear camera view but it has loop recording of front and rear. It came with a 64gb sd card installed. That is a nice feature if you encounter any wildlife you want to look back at. It also has dual bluetooth 5.0 but I don't anticipate using that feature either. I use my phone and 3M headphones for hearing protection and music.
My crummy cell phone pics don't do it justice. The image is crystal clear. I haven't even driven the tractor with it so I hope it doesn't vibrate but I don't expect that it will.
I had to make a bracket to screw the rear camera onto and both the camera and display are mounted with double stick adhesive.
