Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System
Here are some photos of my install on a 2006 Toyota Tundra. Notes: Photo 1 is of my front plate with an uncut license frame. Photo 2 is the back plate with the frame cut to accommodate the camera. Photo 3 shows the location I choose to mount the display. Photo 4 close-up (the device to the right is an aftermarket Bluetooth hands-free phone interface)
Wiring instructions a little vague, when you do not have a OEM trailer plug, it says to remove plug H. Nothing marked as plug H, so cut off all plugs and searched on how to find reverse and common wires. Rest was a breeze, ran wire up frame and into a plugged hole under carpet, then continued under carpet into dash. Back seat and drivers seat removal a plus to fish wire under carpet.

Swift Hitch Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor - Night Vision - 4-Hour Camera Battery
Camera and screen work great. I use it use it for hitching up my camer and boat. And i've used for more then just my hitch. It has also been great to use on the back of our 31' camper, when I attach it to my bumper. It only takes a couple of times to get the hang of things. Screen is easy to see and camera has strong magnetic base, with a good field of view. Glad I got it and have recommended it to friends.
It is a good Quality product. When you touch it you can tell that it is well built. Picture quality is out standing .Battery life seems to be more than adequate. Love it so far.

Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor - Night Vision - 8-Hr Camera Battery
This product works just as advertised - hassle free and right out the box worked without a hitch! (Pun intended) First try I backed right up to the trailer hitch - no problem and no directions needed from someone to get it right.
Works well, seems to be very solidly built. What's nice is that you can place it on the SUV tailgate, looking down....makes hitch alignment a breeze...!! (The "license-plate" type back up cams are too low, don't give a good view) Nothing to set-up or calibrate, one charger for camera and monitor, ready to go...! It even fits my cell-phone holder, see pics....! My only suggestion to the manufacturer would be to include a wall charger, household 120 v.

Hopkins Rear View Camera with Backup Sensors - 2-1/2" LCD
The backup camera will be a Christmas gift so a photo will be forthcoming. My husband has had a problem with bumps in his rear bumper so hopefully the camera will help keeping his current bumper unscathed. The rating of excellent is my hope for use.
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.

Rear View Safety G-Series Backup Camera System
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

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.

Hopkins Backup Sensor System - Audible Alert - License Bracket Mount
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 .

Rear View Safety Backup Camera System - Mirror Monitor - License Plate Mounted Camera
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

Hopkins Trailblazer Electronic Deer Alert
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.

Rear View Safety Backup Camera System with Trailer Tow Quick Connect Kit
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.

Rear View Safety Backup Camera System with Trailer Tow Quick Connect Kit - 2 Cameras
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.

Rear View Safety Backup Camera System - Mirror with Monitor - Flush Mount Backup Camera
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!

Swift Hitch Digital Wireless Hitch Aligner System w Monitor, 2 Camera - Night Vision - 10-Hr Battery
These cameras are so convenient and easy to use. I love them. We use them for everything for watching our sleeping kid to backing support
Reception range is better than stated. We have an extended cab F350, pulling a 3-horse, slant-load gooseneck. We did not need to use the coax cable for the rear camera, the signal / reception at the monitor in the cab was just fine from the camera's antenna. Connection times between the display and the cameras are reasonable. The display is a bit dim in daylight but viewing from the cab is ok. Battery life appears to be good. Initial setup was quite simple, really nothing had to be done except turn on the cammeras and the monitor, and everything linked up automatically. All in all, a good system.

My order arrived on time. the Swift Hitch camera is EXACTLY what I needed and precisely what I was looking for. The Camera operated just as advertised, the display is colorful and clear. The distance gauge was just what I needed. I am extremely pleased with eTrailer and Swift Hitch!
Great solution for my 2005 4Runner that doesn't have a factory camera. I pull a small overland trailer and it makes reconnecting after exploring much easier. No need to install anything. Great features.

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.
