Most Popular Hardwired for 2013 Ford F-150

I just did the installation on my 2012 GMC Sierra 1500. Installation was fairly easy for this broken down man thanks to the video's that you share! I didn't know what the quality of the monitor would be but I was impressed! The small sized monitor will not be in the way of my view. I placed it on the far left side on my dash. Now I can hitch up to my camper without getting in and out of my truck a half dozen times! Thank You!

Everything works well with the camera and display. The adapter that ties this into the trailer wiring for the display so it knows when you are in reverse does not allow the trailer brakes to work! Yikes! I had to do a roadside disconnect with a full trailer and no trailer brakes. I removed the adapter and rewired it directly to the reverse light wiring after getting home. All has worked well since. You definitely need to check this before using this kit out on the road. The display is a little small but that is what I was looking for. I just wanted to see the hitch ball for hookup.

I just recently purchased and installed the hopkins camera HM60195VA and say I love it. It's an easy install for my dodge challenger and helps out beyond words when backing up. The install only took about an hour and if your not really looking you can't tell there is a camera there. The wiring was simple and plenty long enough and the monitor looks like it belongs there. I highly recommend this set up.

This is one cool gadget , it was also easy to install it only took me 30 minutes. I did share this already to my pastor, to my brother and also to my brother in law. Im not tall of a person standing only 5'7 it was a bit of a challenge for me backing up im driving a 2006 f-150 , so when I saw this online I immediately order it.

Stopped working and when it did it wasn't that accurate. Now it just doesn't work at all. The beeper is not that loud when it is in the panel of the hatchback.

Installed on 2015 Kia Sorento. My particular installation was simple . I new it would be , that is why I chose this product. My backup lights are located on the back door hatch. Removed three small opening covers and exposed the opening to the light wiring and gained access to " fish wire and connector through, without removing paneling. Connections were literally a "snap". All was achieved within the back door panel. The unit seems to work fine but is lacking corner activation, which is to be expected with only two sensors. My particular application will not sense a small dog even when sensors are pitched lowest possible.( high licence plate). Had to disconnect and reconnect connector with white alignment dots numerous times before unit worked properly. Overall, I would say it functions very well . It is very adequate for my needs and at a reasonable price. I Couldn't give it 5 stars because of the connector problem. How it does in the future. only time will tell .

I just received my order and I was not disapointed. The camera and associated parts are all of high quality and I would not hesitate to order future supplies from etrailers. This is not to mention there fantastic customer service. My purchase was on back order and they kept me in the loop without any intervention from me. Out of all the online order that I have placed this year etrailer deserves a 5+ star rating ... Thanks again

I am very happy with it.

My wife rode with a friend for lunch who had a new car with a back-up camera. She was really impressed and was talking about buying a new car to replace her 2011 Ford Escape that would have the backup camera. I found a video showing how to install the camera on an Escape by etrailer. I was impressed by the company and bought a unit. It arrived quickly and I was able to install it following the instructions I had watched. It took me a couple of hours to install, the hardest part being fishing the cables to the rear of the car. Once installed it worked great. My wife is very, very happy with the install. She says she is much more confident in parking her car. Thanks a lot. I would, and do recommend etrailer and the back up camera kit.

im very pleased with the product (camera & rear view mirror) takes a little work to get the cables run through your vehicle (f150) and finding a good power source (my problem) had one issue with a cable mfg took care of it over all had it installed for 1 year very happy got it manly for conecting to our travel trailer but use it all the time now

Instructions are not real helpful, needed to call the manufacturer to assist in installation, needed to buy a rca connector to complete the hookup, it was not furnished, overall nice addition to my truck

I installed a backup camera on my 40' 5th wheel travel trailer. LOVE it! Dialed in the guidelines, flipped the image to mirror view and can nail the tight parking spaces like a professional. Lets me keep an eye on the bikes on the bike rack too. The night vision feature is great. The microphone/speaker works well when I need a real person spotting (which is almost never now). Now my wife can just talk to me, no more yelling. Installation wasn't too difficult as the cable fit behind the weather strip along the corners of the coach. If you want to know what's in the blind spot behind you, good choice here. And the monitor has 2 more video connections to use too. Might add a hookup camera next. Anyway, buy it.

I have a pull behind camper and I like to see what is behind the camper as I go down the road. The camera is wired to an AUX switch so I can have it on when I need it. The camera is also great for backing the camper. The monitor is mounted to a block of wood to fit in two of the four cup holders so I can store it when not in use, out of sight.

No problems. Works as advertised. I use to have a wireless camera, but that would disconnect now and then, or pick up some ones security camera when driving by. Wired connections are the way.

WORKS GREAT...smooth install with the helpful video on your website

Image only covers 1/2 the mirror & is too small to see any details

Hard to see in bright sun other than that easy to install

I love it! Purchased 2. 1 for my wife and the other for me. I have only had it installed for a week and a half on our cars and am seriously thinking about getting 1 all family members. First handed I have noticed that deer are alerted when I am near. I have also noticed that dogs are alerted and raccoons also. This does not work well for geese. This works great on alerting people also. Gets their attention. I decided to use a wireless pushbutton on off switch to a relay for mine. Saves time in trying to find a way through the firewall. The hardest part in wiring was trying to find a circuit that turns off when the car is off.

So far all is good with this deer alert. Installed on my SUV vehicle and I cannot hear it while driving and tunes are playing. (I installed LED indicator light so that I know the alert is on). I have used a competitor's deer alert on my motorcycles (2002 on, after hitting deer and the last 6 years on my Mazda MX-5) after hitting a deer on my brand new motorcycle in 2002. I have found that the alert is very effective after meeting up with many deer/elk/moose in my travels over the last two decades.. Things, I like about the Hopkins Trailblazer Deer Alert vs. competitor's alert: Louder- "Chirpy noise" that I think will be even more effective in alerting animals./ Easily installed behind grill ( at least in my SUV) / Appears to be weather proof so no worries about carwashes / Approx. 25% of the cost of competitor's alert. Tip: I purchased a wireless switch else where and wired into circuit to activate the Alert saving me much time on installation as there was no need to run wires into the cabin for switch as per instructions. Highly recommend as this was a $10 addition. Giving this alert a 4 of 5 rating, only because it is new (one week after installation) and I have yet to encounter any deer/moose/elk in my travels. I will update on my experiences as I do put faith in these devices - perhaps no "bullet-proof", but certainly effective.

The camera is of high quality, as is the rearview mirror and monitor. I did have to return the first mirror because the bracket didn't match my 2013 Ram 1500's windshield mount, even though it was listed as a universal fit. The Ram has a triangular type fitting. I tapped into the reverse light wiring for power. l ended up having to replace the incandescent reverse light bulbs with LED bulbs because the monitor image flickered badly until I installed the LEDs. I think this was because the BCM (Body Control Module) got confused with the additional power draw. Since then the camera and monitor have worked flawlessly. It provides a great view behind the truck, even at night. Because of the placement on the bumper it doesn't have a good view of the hitch ball, but I don't tow very often. Overall I have been very pleased and feel that the camera is well worth the price.

Outstanding parts knowledge and a high quality products!

Every thing in the kit look like good stuff haven't installed yet.

This was by far the worst purchase I have ever made. This product is more of a hazard when driving then a help! I had it professionally installed on my 2021 GMC Canyon. If I use my turn signal, the buzzer goes off then while driving road signs, mail boxes, trees , shrubs and almost anything on either side of the road set the indicator lights and buzzer off. I would highly recommend trailer discontinue carrying this product as it is Junk

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.

fast service

The quality of the parts seem good but the directions to install everything were horrible (essentially none existent) and I had to go to [online] to figure out how to remove my factory mirror for the new mirror install and the wiring I figured out by trial and error. The camera kit should have included longer screws to replace the stock screws on the F250 brake light. The order was delayed about a month due to supply chain shortages. Once I got got it all together it works well, just disappointed in the instructions and should have provided replacement screws.

The directions are poor at best. You have to figure it out on your own, which isn't a real big problem, but some additional information would be nice. The bezel for the camera is nice, but doesn't fit 100%. Its close enough, but you have to play with it a little. Additionally, I'm not sure why the camera has a 6' cable, then there is a REQUIRED 24' cable to then connect to another 6' cable to the mirror. I'm wanting to install the mirror in my truck, not the truck in front of me. I don't need 36' of cable, its a Crew Cab, not a buss. So it means you have ALOT of cable to stash. Also, other than changing the brightness, I have no idea what the POWER button on the mirror does. I wired to a switched power source figuring I could just press the power button to turn the monitor on and off. Guess what.. you can't. It is ON. To have this work right, you'd have to figure out a way to wire it to the reverse light switch. And once you find this issue (despite the item description clearly stating the power button can be used to turn it on and off), good luck getting help from etrailer. Was told I would be contacted by someone from technical support days ago... its been crickets. It also sucks the mirror is autodiming, despite what looks like light sensors front and rear, it does not dim (only found that mentioned in the two page "manual/install guide".

Was easy to install and the quality of the picture was rather surprising. Very clear and bright. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting to ease the hookup for a Fifth Wheel with a goose neck adapter.

This was fairly easy to install. Works great for lining up on our fifth wheel trailer hitch.

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.

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.

Great Service
