Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System
Good instructions included, no other materials needed except a few wire ties, and the unit is simple to operate. I purchased this as a Christmas present (my daughter's 2013 Ford Escape). There is no existing connector plug on the car, so I did remove the plug and wired directly within the tailgate. Ran the cable through the existing rubber boot to the inside, along the inside of the passenger side overhead liner and front A pillar, between the windshield and dash, and then to the monitor mounted on the dash. My daughter seems to really like and it is working fine as of this review.
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!

Swift Hitch Wireless Hitch Alignment Camera and Monitor - Night Vision - 4-Hour Camera Battery
Worked exactly as advertised, My first attempt to hook up to trailer went perfect. There was some distortion in the picture when the truck first started, but it cleared up pretty quickly. I Can't speak to battery life or product longevity since I just purchased, but hopefully will get good service from the device.
The concept is great. The camera adjustability is really good. It is versatile and works. It does not have much range and reception is sketchy. I put it above bumper on an 8’ pickup and it has poor reception. To work well I put it on top of tailgate and I still has a little static. I’m using the unit and it’s very useful. If reception was better it could be a great unit. Thanks
