Product Description
This unit features the latest in wireless technology to ensure easy installation and reliable quality. Includes a 2.5-Inch LCD Monitor and a wireless backup camera that easily mounts on your existing license plate eliminating the need for any cutting (screws and all installation accessories included). Unlike the other wireless Back-up systems in the market, this unit features 12 LED sensors built into the camera providing a Night Vision image under dark conditions. This means that your visibility will not be hindered by limited light. The camera is simply installed by mounting it over your existing license plate with the provided screws. The camera is then powered via the existing Reverse lights on the vehicle eliminating the need for lengthy wires or complicated installation. The diagram depicts the two power cables which are easily installed into the existing reverse lights in a matter of minutes (5-10 minutes). The LCD Monitor plugs directly into the cigarette lighter with the included cigarette lighter adaptor and can be mounted almost anywhere including clipping onto the air condition vents, mounting on the visor or dashboard etc. The camera will automatically activate when the car goes into Reverse. That means that you don't have to press anything: Simply shift your car into reverse and your LCD monitor will automatically turn on. The Night Vision is also automatically activated based on weather conditions. The only time you will spend on this unit is the few minutes it will take you to install it - after that, you're all set! Product Specifications: Universal Wireless Rearview Back Up Camera with Night Vision, 2.5-Inch LCD enhanced clarity display, Weatherproof backup camera with night vision, 110° horizontal view and 80° vertical view, Equipped with reverse voltage protection, Everything needed to install and mount the monitor is Included, Direct Installation onto existing license plate frame, Auto-On via reverse, 1 Year Warranty

This is all you need for a rear-view camera. I paid 3-4 times this much to another vendor for a larger-screen gadget for my other car; it attaches to and is bigger than the rear view mirror and provides great color. It was a royal pain to install and cost me a bunch of money for my local garage mechanic. (the other vendor gave me a store credit to make up) But all you need is this little 2.5" screen in black and white (most of the time). I wish I had known about this before I bought my first one. You don't need HD! You just want to know if a kid or a dog or a bicyle is lying behind your car, and this gadget will tell you that for less than $100. I installed it with a little difficulty, in 3 or so hours, with just basic tools. If you are reasonably handy, and you get lucky like I did in terms of the accessibility of your back up lights, you can do it. Basically you need to run a wire from the back-up light, inside the trunk, and finagle it through to connect to the camera which you attach to the top of your rear license plate. If you can do that, the screen just plugs into the cigarette lighter, and you're in business. Worked the first time, for me.
All these cameras are of necessity extremely wide angle, so that you see all you need to see, hence it is very difficult to judge how close you are to something as you back up. All they really tell you is, is there something back there, or is the coast clear. But that, as noted above, is all you really need to know.

Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this item to install on my late model minivan after having had a WinPlus backup camera (very similar) on my previous vehicle--so I have an idea of how these type of cameras perform in general. Ultimately, I chose this item over similar ones because I wanted something weatherproof and having a larger field of vision (more on that later). I don't really like the camera being included in the somewhat bulky license plate mounting bracket, but settled for that to get the other features that were more important to me. I actually prefer a smaller unit that can be mounted less conspicuously. If you install this unit on the top of the license plate it obscures the state name (in my state anyway) which is illegal, so I had to install on the bottom holes of the license plate. Also, in order to achieve an appropriate amount of downward angle on the camera/bracket so that you can see closer to your bumper, the use of the supplied angled shims and adjustments to the license plate mounting overall is clunky (the camera itself is not adjustable and cannot be tilted up or down independent of the entire bracket it is housed in).
This brings me to my biggest issue and that is the error in the product description--not just on Amazon, but everywhere on the internet it seems. The product description online claims 110 degrees of horizontal view which is superior to the typical 90 degrees of similar products. More expensive cameras can show 130 up to 170 degrees which would allow you to see almost everything on either side close to your bumper, but 110 is acceptable to me. This makes a big difference in what you can see from side-to-side, especially the closer you are to the camera (e.g. small kids or toys on the corners of you bumper). However, when the product arrived, the box and packaging clearly state that the horizontal view is only 80 degrees (vertical is 60 degrees)! So beware, you will not be seeing much on the sides as you get closer to your bumper--field of view is shaped like a pie piece, getting broader the further away from the camera you go. To me, it is most important to see things closer to your bumper which requires a larger field of view. This mediocre field of view was confirmed upon installation. If I could find a comparably priced system that was weatherproof (maybe this one isn't either if they were wrong about other things) and had a larger field of view I would buy that instead of this one. Very disappointed in the erroneous product description which led me to purchase a product that I might not have otherwise.
The installation went ok...pretty much as described though I could not get the inline wire connectors to work and had to hardwire it into the driver's side backup light socket. Once installed, the camera functions reasonably well. With all wireless cameras, you will get some occasional flicker/static--more depending on whether you are near other 2.4ghz wireless interference (e.g. wifi internet connections). It works according to specs and does an adequate job, even in low light with the included night vision (notice the tiny infrared 'bulbs' on either side of the camera lens). Would be nice if the included LCD monitor was a little larger than 2.5 inches. My previous unit had a 3.5 inch monitor which was noticeably larger and easier to view. Overall, this is a pretty average unit compared to similarly-priced options. Don't know that you will do much better unless you spend more.
Positives: Inexpensive, works, weatherproof (or is it?)
Suggested improvements: Improve the field of vision and put the camera and transmitter in a smaller form factor that can be more easily mounted in other locations besides the license plate. Include a larger LCD monitor.

This camera set up seems to be well designed & of good quality. We played with it around the office, only at the length of it's attached wires. However, my pick up is a 4 door long bed 4x4. We call it the space shuttle. It's length puts the camera on the rear bumper too far from the monitor on the dash & the signal on the screen is pretty scratchy & fuzzy. I have successfully backed up to a tailer alone with it but I sure wish the signal was clearer.
