Best Ram 2500 Backup Cameras

This backup camera is excellent quality and super easy to install. The pre-wired plug made it simple to install to the existing trailer harness. Routing the cable was easy following existing framework and cables. I had plenty of wire to be able to mount the display in the center of the dashboard. The image quality is amazing.

I bought this back up camera for my 2005 Chevy Tahoe for the sole purpose of hitching up to my trailer. It has met all my expectations beginning with ease of installation. Best of all, in hitch mode, the hitch ball and trailer coupler are displayed. No more getting in and out or banging into the coupler. Just back up until the ball is directly under the coupler. Get out once and hook it up. It's great when a product delivers!

I often have to hitch my 30 foot gooseneck trailer alone and the Swift Hitch is an awesome tool. It's quick and easy to do a once aggravating chore.

The signal from the camera drops off when the receiver is more than 3-5 feet from the camera. Will be returning it.

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.

This was a pretty good back up camera. The magnetic base was helpful in keeping it in place. The screen was fairly clear but occasionally had some interference which caused lines across the screen. Sadly it was stolen recently.

The product works great but Im a trucker and when I bought it it was to put behind my trailer to see when backing up, but on the product description it said it can be 100's of feet and still have a signal but that is not the case.

Worked great to line up my hitch ball and trailer coupler when I was ready to leave camp. Just have to remember to remove it from tailgate before pulling out.

Whenever I have needed anything from etrailer they are always there to help with a product exspecially Amy E. I have talked to her in the past on her recommendation and she has never steered me wrong. She not only helped me with the mirrors and camera but with a new Kurt 5th wheel hitch that I purchased and installed myself. A huge shoot out to Amy and etrailer.

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.

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.

I installed this in an F150 and 19ft trailer combination. The install went reasonably easily, after I had worked out how to route the wiring. In general the item works ok but my main issue is how difficult it is to navigate the software that controls the image. It appears that the brightness setting is set too low out of the box, so in bright conditions (when the sun is out), it is not easy to see what is on the screen. Trying to adjust brightness has been almost impossible. The remote is not always making a connection with the unit and there appears to be no way to make adjustments without the remote. Do you have contact info for the manufacturer, or perhaps you've had previous feedback about this? Thanks.

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.

Almost perfect. Seems robust, feels solid. I had to use one of the adhesive disks intended to enable magnetic phone mount to use magnetic camera base on aluminum tailgate of 2024 Silverado truck, so could use a third disk and a rubber gasket to accommodate that disk but otherwise a great hitch aid as well as a security camera in campsite to check on that disturbing noise you hesitate to investigate in person. Allows recording vis/ir video & audio to phone or tablet. Good resolution but not 4K.

Camera worked well for hooking the gooseneck onto the truck. I also like that it can be moved to the back of the trailer so I can see what is behind it when backing up.

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!

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 .

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.

I am very happy with it.

Image only covers 1/2 the mirror & is too small to see any details

Hard to see in bright sun other than that easy to install

This was fairly easy to install. Works great for lining up on our fifth wheel trailer hitch.

Was easy to install and the quality of the picture was rather surprising. Very clear and bright. Definitely recommend for anyone wanting to ease the hookup for a Fifth Wheel with a goose neck adapter.

Every thing in the kit look like good stuff haven't installed yet.

There was a missing clip necessary to activate the brake lights.

The installed led light harness almost fits the brake light housing. I had to make a few modifications to make it fit. Other than that it works perfectly.

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.

The first unit I received was defective (screen was too dark to be useful) but was replaced without any problems by etrailer. Great and helpful customer service, impressive!

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

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.
