I am planning to the rear-view-video-screen thing too when I build my time 
machine since the back window will be covered up, I have decided to put it 
right where the rear view mirror is.
That is the natural location where you would look at the mirror, and it will 
help prevent glare.
Also, make sure you use a camera that has "mirror" reversing setting to that 
everything will
be reversed like a real mirror, otherwise you might get confused!
