Excellent camera.
I installed this in about 10 minutes on a Rockwood Roo, but the Roo was prewired for the camera. If your rig isn't prewired, there are extra steps you will need to take to make this work for your setup but those are outlined in the install instructions. For the prewired Roo, it already had the black fin plate attached to the back of the rig so I didn't have to drill or caulk anything and honestly it took more time to lug out the ladder than it did to install this whole setup.The first step is to pair the camera with the monitor, which was pretty easy. Plug in the monitor to the cigarette lighter/adapter in the car, then plug the camera into the split wire connection (the monitor power wire has a split connection that you plug the camera into), turn the monitor on and it pairs. You may have to hit the menu button on the side of the monitor and select pairing, but the whole process was very simple.Second step was to install the camera. On the Roo there is a black attachment at the top of the back of the rig that looks like the case the camera is in but without the camera. Essentially you remove the camera from the factory case and mount it in the case already on the rig, which is very easy. On the RV case there is a small plate where the camera mounts which is held on by 4 screws, just unscrew the plate but don't lose the screws because they are very small. Then remove the camera from the case it is installed in and plug the camera into the wire preinstalled in the rig, push the wires back into the case on the rig, then attach the camera with the 4 screws. It is really very easy if your rig already has the black fin case already attached.Finally, adjust the camera to the angle you want and you are set.The monitor attaches to a suction cup which then attaches to your windshield. The monitor plugs into the cigarette lighter/adapter for power. I added a small velcro strap to the wire to bundle it.Overall it has excellent picture quality and is very easy to install and easy to adjust the camera angle. You just "click" the camera up or down by moving it and it stays in place. It does not move at all even when going over rough roads.I used it while driving and had no issue with picture loss and everything was real time. I could see cars coming up on either side of my rig without having lag issues. Also I did not have to "mirror" the image. Cars coming up on the left appeared on the left of the screen, cars on the right appeared on the right, no problem at all. You would just have to double check your connection to see if you would need to mirroe the image.Now for the "CONS". The monitor and the power cord. I hate cords hanging all over the place and this cord is long. I just used a velcro strap to bundle the excess wire and it seemed to work fine but because they used a bulky ciagrette lighter type adapter plug, it stuck out and kept getting in the way until we got use to it being there. I wish they would have thought about using a USB cord to power the monitor because then I wouldn't have had the huge adapter getting in the way. Honestly though, that would be my only real complaint.Overall the camera and monitor are an excellent addition to my rig. My only suggestion or recommendation to Furrion is to work on making this iphone/android compatible so that the monitor setup could be replaced using a phone or tablet. But again, this is a great setup for my rig.

Very helpful for safety on the road
Installed on new travel trailer that was pre-wired Furrion. Super easy set-up, the other reviews representing that are not wrong. Highly recommend for anyone used to rear view monitoring on the road - I'm not used to looking in the mirror and seeing nothing but a "wall of trailer"... Changing lanes with confidence makes for drama free driving, naturally it's tough to make out whether Smokey's on your tail, but you can see enough to avoid others traversing the road. I also have a very tight parking place for the trailer on the side yard - about 3' of clearance total (2' one side, 1' the other) with a sloped approach as backing in. With my lovely bride (the spotter) the camera helps a ton. You can only hear your spotter when they're relatively close but if you can get them to raise the voice volume that's solvable, it's just that the bride fears I will stomp the gas and run her down... (despite my promises that I won't, I like her too much). The monitor is very good, clarity is excellent. My only recommendation would be that the camera come with a clip so that it can be mounted over the rear view mirror. Daytime on the dash there's always glare - don't get the small monitor if you can afford it, the 7" is far better. I'll get to work to rig something up so it can go over the mirror.

Camera will be great for traveling
Had an issue when installing the plug and play. Had conversations with the seller and got the camera to work, we also called the manufacturer and learned that all Forest River trailers are pre wired with the marker lights, so in order for this to work you must be hooked up to your truck with parking or headlights on. That would have been helpful to know to begin with, but it works great now.

Great help for safely backing up.
The 7 inch monitor and Sharkfin Camera in this package gives a clear, wide angle image of what is happening behind my travel travel trailer. The rear facing Skarkfin camera is a great safety net to have when backing up.I only returned the package because the Rear Camera with Marker Light and 4 inch monitor were extra items that I didn't need.

Top of the line product.
7" monitor and two backup cameras.One camera on back of 36 foot motorhome and one on back of a 24' cargo trailer with 5' hitch. Great views over the whole 65' length. Great pics on the monitor. Furion is worth the $600+ we pd. Amazon had everything in stock and package arrived in just a few days. We had them professionally installed. Would buy them again.
