Most Popular Hopkins for 2016 Nissan Frontier

The Smart Hitch is very effective, when it is working correctly. Unfortunately, reliability has been an issue. The camera and monitor have worked without fail. However, the sensors and corresponding alignment bars and alert sounds have been inconsistent in performance. Intermittently, but particularly in wet weather or after using a car wash, the sensors would become intermittent or disfunctional. In those conditions, the unit would immediately begin alerting that I was extremely close to the trailer or an object (when in back up mode) as soon as I shifted into reverse, regardess of the distance to the object. When I raised the issue initially, the company immediately provided me a replacement unit. This worked for some months, then the replacement unit began exhibiting the same symptoms. I tried putting the original sensor unit back on and it worked correctly for months, until just recently when it began exhibiting the same symptoms. The Nissan Frontier requires that you cut off the interface connector that is used with normal 6/7 pin connectors used on most trucks and splice into the back up light wiring. It is possible that this may be contributing to the issues I am experiencing. When it works correctly, the Smart Hitch is very effective, both to facilitate hitching a trailer and as a backup camera.

Received the unit quickly. Finally just got around to installing it and installation went extremely well. There were no nuts to screw lock the splice joints together and hold them in place so I taped the connectors together with a good quality electricians tape. Picture looks good and warning alarm works great. Field of view is good but I get a back up alarm signal if I am backing up to a rise in the pavement. Over all I am pleased with the unit. If it lasts a good while I will be extremely happy.

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 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.

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.

Wow - The VueSmartRV and Trailer Backup Camera is exactly what I needed! It’s like a Body-cam for my highwall popup trailer. I cannot see behind the trailer at all, when in reverse. This saves me from having to get out to assess and reassess my surroundings. The WiFi signal easily connects to my Moto Z2 (Android) phone through the Hopkins Towing Solutions App. What I like about the camera is that it provides a clear picture of the view behind my popup and there’s no delay or choppiness in its motion. I reversed the bracket so that the marker light is located under the camera. In my case, I benefit most from such a setup since my spare tire blocks the lower portion of my field of view on the screen.

This product doesn't work. The app won't show an image. The menu doesn't work. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling and registering. Still doesn't work. This product is garbage.
