Backup Camera
Im looking into getting a wireless back up camera that i can put on the back of truck so i can hook up trailers easier but id also like to be able to put in on the back of trailers so i can back it up as close as possible to the wall. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them and how well they work and what would be the best one to buy.
Also itd be nice if it had night vision and the lines to show how close you are.
Thank you.

I use the i-ball hitch cam for hooking up my trailer. It doesn't have the lines to guide you as you back up, but it works pretty well. It took a little trial and error to decide where the best spot on the tailgate was to put it each time to get a good perspective to be able to tell when the ball was exactly under the hitch. It has good range, so you can also put it on the back of the trailer when backing up. I've used it on the truck at night and the back up lights gave enough light to use it. Not sure it would work in truly dark conditions.
Overall, for the price I really like it. Not as handy as a factory system, but works very well. Can always get within an inch or so of being lined up by myself before I need to go look.

Costco has Yada backup cameras on sale for $100.
I bought one last year. The install was simple.
The camera works well. I am satisfied.
There are mixed reviews. Some good and some bad.

I would think there are going to be limited amount of products that will allow you to move it around. The camera is going to need power at both spots.

Something like this could work. it comes with dual wireless cameras. Otherwise maybe a wired camera for the truck and a second 1 for the trailer
