I have cameras but i'd also like to put one of the old aire hose counters in the back there use to be one but its gone now. I cant seem to find them online. Just a black box where everytime the car rolls over the hose it goes up 1 per 2 rolls.

You may have to make one if you can't find them. Take something like this:
and wire it to a counter instead of the bell. You might not have to buy the whole bell kit if you can order a replacement actuator for it and wire that to a 120V counter.

DOT still uses them to determine traffic counts, they have to be available. Contact somebody in your local public works or DOT.
