Hopkins Towing Solutions 50002 Smart Hitch Backup Camera & Sensor System - HD Wireless Trailer Camera with Parking Sensors for Trucks, SUVs & RVs - Perfect for Safe Reversing, Hitching & Parking in Tight Spaces

After several holes in my bumper from hitting the trailer hitch, I decided I needed a backup camera. I tried a wireless backup camera. I liked the ease of installation. It didn't work. After a lot of frustration, I gave up. I decided not to try wireless again. I'm very pleased with the Hopkins Smart Hitch. It is powered by a backup light, so you have to run some wires. I had to drill a hole to get the wire into the passenger compartment. The wire that leads to the camera is sturdy with a connector that doesn't require a large hole to get through. It seems to be reasonably waterproof. I was careful to avoid places where the wire could be pinched by suspension components. I was able to mostly hide the wire once it was inside by tucking it under plastic or carpet, but it is visible in spots. The screen is a little small, about the size of a cell phone display. I can live with it. The display is sharp and updates rapidly in real time. It makes hitching a trailer a snap. The field of view is limited, so the camera is only useful when you get close to the trailer. It has sensors that beep a lot. They aren't really useful to me because I can see the hitch fine. They might be useful in low light. I don't need it for anything but hitching trailers. The small field of view limits its usefulness for anything else. I haven't used it a lot yet, so I don't know how it will hold up to harsh weather conditions. However, at this time I am very pleased with it and would recommend it highly to anyone who doesn't have a factory camera. And doesn't mind running the wires.Update: I gave the impression that the field of view was limited. That isn't true. If you adjust the camera properly, you can actually see the hitch and also see what is behind the vehicle. And the sensors will warn you if you are going to hit something. In its initial configuration, the camera was aimed very low. I continue to highly recommend it.
