Anyone had any luck with a wireless camera on the rear of tt? Can it eleminate wide mirrors? Any suggestions?

We upgraded to a travel trailer from a Pop-UP this year. It did not come with a factory installed camera and I didn't want to pay the $600 parts and labor cost to get one installed by the dealer.
I purchased this kit:

I mounted on the roof along the back edge. It has tilt adjustment. I have mine angled so I can see out the back like a review mirror. I can angle it down if I want to see more immediately behind the camper for backing up.
Its not wireless but I ran power and video along the bottom of the camper and the cables coming up the back corner of the camper to the roof. Used some cable channel painted to match the trim so it blends in. I mounted the camera on a gang box that is sealed to house the connections. Power is connected to a toggle switch running off the battery.
I ran extra video cord that is zip tied to the main power cable that connects to the truck. I then run a video cable from my dash to the back of truck, tucking the cable into the inter trim panels.
I can send pics if interested but I was all in for less then $100 and an afternoon to get everything installed. Bonus for not having to put holes in the camper. :)
It definitely helps.
