Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System
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!
Everything works well with the camera and display. The adapter that ties this into the trailer wiring for the display so it knows when you are in reverse does not allow the trailer brakes to work! Yikes! I had to do a roadside disconnect with a full trailer and no trailer brakes. I removed the adapter and rewired it directly to the reverse light wiring after getting home. All has worked well since. You definitely need to check this before using this kit out on the road. The display is a little small but that is what I was looking for. I just wanted to see the hitch ball for hookup.

VueSMART RV and Trailer Backup Camera - Wireless - Universal Mount - 152-Degree View
I love it it is the best Backup camera
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.

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!

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

Custom Third Brake Light Camera System w/ Rear View Mirror - Night Vision - 4.3" Screen
I would have given this a higher score if it were not for the lack of decent instructions or how the mirror actually works, Secondly, I don't like the fuse placement on the mirror, I will splice it out and add it somewhere else that is accessible. I do like the fact you can connect 3 cameras, again, no instructions how the mirror switches between the two. After testing, when a camera is powered, the screen show that particular camera. I will be adding the cargo cam and an additional front cam to my aux switches so I have control over them. Also, the cargo cam is 620 lines, as advertised but no specs on the mirror monitor. After receiving the item, the mirror only produces 480 lines. Not deal breaker as the picture quality is good for a 4.3" screen. Haven't installed yet, but did bench test on the cargo cam as well as an additional cam I purchased. Works flawlessly. Overall, not a bad product, just need some more info/instructions and options for the mirror fuse.
