Rear View Safety G-Series Backup Camera System - Compass - Temperature
One of our Technicians has about 20 years in truck aftermarket setup and thought that this rear view camera was as good as it gets. In all, the quality, installation flexibility, video quality and adjustments made this product something that we will purchase again. The compass and temperature were a bonus as well as remote control adjustments for grid lines , brightness and such. This shipped very quickly and all components are well labeled and packed. The directions are easy to follow. Our installation is mounted below a safety warning LED light so it is protected but something etrailer might think about is a surround escutcheon type thing for added protection.
Great choice. Works very well. My truck lacked 3 things that I had gotten used to having - compass, outdoor air temp gauge. and rear view camera. This solved them all! Takes some trial/error to get temp probe in right spot.

Rear View Safety G-Series Backup Camera System - Auto Dimming - OnStar
Has worked every time transmission put in reverse, picture clear and accurate to proximity. Unsure if it was a problem with the onstar section of the mirror, one time lost signal on a trip, but later worked flawlessly. Defiantly will keep you out of trouble when backing up.

Rear View Safety G-Series Backup Camera System - Auto Dimming
I bought this because my daughter and I had both backed the truck into the camper parked in the driveway. So far, it has worked for its purpose. It does not work as well as the factory setup in my Ford Escape. The main problem is seeing the image in the rear view mirror when the sun is bright. I also need to put on my reading glasses to see the image clearly (if I could drive with the seat back another 3 inches I would be fine). The auto-dim feature of the mirror works great. After the initial install, I moved the camera from over top of the license plate to the bottom of the bumper beside of the hitch receiver, having cut a notch in some of the plastic trim so it would not block the view. That was a huge improvement. When installing on a mid 2000s Ford Superduty, there are some good videos online for removal of the A-pillar trim and grab handle. There is a wire under the dash related to PTO functionality that provides power only when the key is switched on that you can use to power the unit. Run the cable to the camera under the sill plates (these are in the bottom of the door opening) to the back of the cab before exiting to the underside of the truck. Coil the excess wire here and zip tie it. When having major engine work done, point this wire out to the mechanic in case he has to lift the cab to do the work -- there will be enough extra wire to allow him to do this without disconnecting anything.
auto dimming backup mirror works great. had a local shop install it---I'll never be without a backup camera in any car I own

Rear View Safety G-Series Backup Camera System - Auto Dimming - Compass - Temperature
This style of camera in the mirror solves a lot of location problems on the dash. A good engineered product that should outlast the vehicle its installed on. I had good service from Etrailerr and the item was delivered intact and promptly.
Great unit. My only recamindashion would be to watch the instal video and get everthing needed to install in one ordre.
