Specs:
The rear assist lines generated by the system's camera make connecting your fifth wheel camper or gooseneck trailer a one-person job. The lines appear on your 8" factory monitor and show the distance from other objects, allowing you to accurately line up your connection point when hooking up your camper or trailer.
0 Lux night vision produces a quality picture and gives you the flexibility you need when hooking up your camper or trailer. You can line up your connection point in low-light conditions at dusk, or in complete darkness at night without the aid of IR transmitters.
The switch kit adds a new dimension to your current setup, allowing you to toggle between views from your truck bed camera and factory backup camera with the flip of a switch. The integrated flip switch can be mounted inside of your truck to give you a clean OEM look and easy access.
Simply unscrew and unplug your factory third brake light. Once removed, set your new custom bezel with camera in place. Feed the 6' camera wire through the opening into your truck and re-install your factory third brake light in front of the custom bezel.
Connect your 6' camera wire to the 18' wiring harness. This combined 24' wire will extend through your head liner or door sill panel along the edge of the floor, up to the front of your truck, and connect with the included ground and power wiring harness. The power wire will run to your truck's battery.
The switch kit installs by connecting one end of the included T-harness into the factory plug behind your radio, and the other end into the back of your radio. The integrated power wire for the flip switch will run to 12V accessory power.

The installation video on how to install was very informative down to the last detail. I installed this camera on my 2019 Ford F250 SD that had the sync 3 8" screen and it went together very well. The ONLY thing I would have liked to see is a "centered line" in the middle of the picture to help guide the king pin onto the 5th wheel hitch when hooking up my trailer. I know that there are other newly acquired F-Series buyers who, after years of hooking up 5th wheels by just looking into your rear view mirror, never realized that with these new Ford Trucks that you lose the line of sight due to a higher rear seat back that covers over 8 inches of the rear window so you can't see your hitch. Otherwise, I would have probably had the Ford original camera in the 3rd brake light option. Too bad Ford doesn't sell the camera's to the public as they are losing out of a bunch of money!!!

Quality is descent. Would be nice to be able to manually zoom for better close up. The camera doesn’t work well with Trucks with bakflip (shortbed)cover if you using to hook-up to gooseneck. You can’t see the ball at all. Need about an inch more clearance. But overall love the camera. Without a cover works great.
My bed camera works great. Etrailer really stepped up to the plate for me. I installed it and could not get the camera to work after double checking my connections and the instructional video. We determined that the jumper harness was bad. They shipped out another camera system before I could get back to them and let the know the distributor was about 20 miles from me and they agreed to exchange the jumper harness. They even helped me test it on my truck before I left. Thank you Etrailer
The only disappointment is you can’t zoom in on the ball in the box but easy installation !
Love it! Makes hitching up my 5th wheel super easy. It even survived a few drive through car washes before I realized I probably shouldn't be doing that.
I would say this is an excellent product that does what it says it does and does it well. I would have like to have seen more detailed instructions to include how to adjust the camera. When you are carefully installing this on a $70,000.00 truck, it takes most of the day. I would buy it again.
This rearview camera was easy to install and has worked perectly.
Hooked it up and runs great, just had a minor issue with the installation but e-trailer representative fixed my problem by phone quickly. It was my fault didn't hook all wires. Mike
Very good product your video made the install a breeze thanks.
