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!

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 .

VueSMART RV and Trailer Backup Camera - Wireless - Universal Mount - 152-Degree View
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 Rear View Camera with Backup Sensors - 2-1/2" LCD
My Hopkins Rear View Camera arrived exactly when etrailer said it would. The installation on a hatchback (Ford Escape) required some creativity, but I was able to do it. The nice thing is that the screen doesn't blink on and off with interference like my old wireless unit did. The only room for improvement is the video picture quality; not as good as my old wireless one was. The backup sensors are a plus.
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.
