Review on High-Definition Truck Backup Camera Kit with 7-Inch Monitor, Easy 30-Min DIY Installation for RVs, Trailers, 5th Wheels, Campers - Advanced Rear View Observation System Including Second License Plate Camera - Yakry Y14+ by Wayne Ohlrogge

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Lots of cables and bad picture quality. But it works for the price you pay.

Bought two cameras, one for the license plate on the truck to monitor the hitch ball. And another one for the back of the trailer. The cameras feel very solid and well built. But I have to say that the picture quality is very poor. For the price I think it's ok. I haven't ridden it, but once I noticed a small mistake. But not bad. You can see from one of the photos that they definitely added too many wires coming from the main unit. I hid it under the hood. Connected directly to the battery. There's no point running under the hood back to the cab. For the trailer cam I made a mount so I don't have to drill into the trailer or bumper. A little ugly, but it works. Now on screen. He's quite tall. But I assume I paid for it. But finding a place to install something that big is pretty ridiculous. I have a Toyota Tacoma and the cab is cramped. I can see what window mounting can do. I will give an update shortly. Update: If you connect a cable to the battery, you must "unplug" the monitor after use, otherwise the camera light will stay on at night. cold day 32* and when i turned it on the screen was only half working and there were a lot of lines on it. I'm not sure if it's the camera or the screen.

Pros
  • Can add a second camera
Cons
  • Can't remember
