Hopkins Backup Sensor System - Audible Alert - License Bracket Mount
I had purchased front parking sensors for my 2018 Mercedes Benz 300 GLC (why in the world on this car, no front parking sensors) and it cost me $265 to have them installed. I found the HOPKINS backup sensors on [another site] and because of shipping (so I could return if needed) I purchased it, even though more expensive for my 2018 Honda Ridgeline for the front (the rear had sensors installed). My local auto shop charged me $50 for installation. Total...a little over $90. ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. I have since bought another set from etrailers for the front of my 2014 Nissan 370Z. It is so low to the ground that I installed a wireless camera from GARMIN on the front license bracket. Because the HOPKINS worked so well on my Ridgeline, this seemed like a great solution for when I do not take the time to hook up the Garmin GPS in my vehicle. BIG difference in price of sensors. Bottom line...Buy it, you will really like it....
Well! It's with great coincidence that it stop working last week. Worked fine and now has stopped! This is our second one which lasted 8 years...traded with car! I now have to remove the back of our 2022 Chevy Trax to see what's going on!

Hopkins Trailblazer Electronic Deer Alert
I rounded a curve in the road to find a deer froze in the left lane looking for where the sound was coming from. As I approved it back of the road like a scolded dog its back to me trying not to be seen. Based on that experience I think it works!
Although not yet installed, the product is much the same as the much more expensive hornet. Have had the hornet operating for seven years until the undercarriage signal module broke off. It is advantageous to mount the "module" under the hood. Thank you!

VueSMART RV and Trailer Backup Camera - Wireless - Universal Mount - 152-Degree View
Didn't work as promised, led light always came on annoying people following, Suburban towing 24' trailer didn't work. Tried contacting Hoppkins no reply. I would not recommend, as a rear view camera ok just remember to turn off led lights as if your actually using it you will as when there on it is almost unusable.
Camera resolution is very good, but antenna is too short to broadcast through my 21' camper to my iPhone 14 Pro Max . . . I had to purchase a wired game antenna mounted on front of air conditioner to get reliable Wi-Fi signal (most of the time). Installation was fairly easy.

Hopkins Rear View Camera with Backup Sensors - 2-1/2" LCD
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.
Works great, especially for hooking up my trailer. Was a easy install, good instructions. The only thing I needed extra was zip ties for attaching the cable to the frame. Installed it on a 2000 Ford, F-150 Harley Davidson edition.

Rear View Safety G-Series Backup Camera System - Compass - Temperature
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.

Rear View Safety Wireless Hitch Camera
The camera worked perfectly the first time. I used it but two days later, nothing. The battery was dead. Next time, same thing. I made sure it was powered off and I even removed battery. Reinstalled battery, powered on and only got still shot of myself. Placed it on tailgate and nothing at all. By the instructions I have done everything correctly. Not working for me at all.
Other than a factory install this is the best option for a cargo camera. The only hitch was that the magnetic mount does not stick to the new Ford aluminum bodies. I mounted a steel plate to the bed cover and once it is folded up place the camera on it. I have a 5th wheel hitch and it is in a perfect position for hitching the trailer.

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

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.
