When I picked up the camper, I decided to have the dealer add the back-up camera to the camper. I mentioned in a previous post I not terribly enthusiastic about the set-up they offered because they were not connecting to marker lamps for power. Instead they get the power from a switch over the door inside the camper that powers the outdoor LED light. They converted a single switch to a double. The second switch is lit up when the camera is on. But I have to walk back and turn it on (or off).
One of the benefits to the set-up they pointed out, is that when parked I can leave the camera powered on and take the wireless display into the camper. This way I can watch behind the camper. So if boat is back there, I can see it during the middle of the night. Kind of a nice benefit.
As far as having to walk back there to turn it on .... after using it, not a big deal. Turn it on and leave it on. No big deal.
I still need to make a bracket to mount the camera on the dash of the truck.
I also ordered a factory Mopar camera that will plug into the vehicle harness and display on the vehicle monitor. My goal is to mount it near the license plate so that when I am at a campground with the camper dismounted and no tailgate, I can still have a camera for easily backing up and connecting the hitch. We'll see how that goes. The factory camera was $85.
