pretty much this.
I lineup small highway cones with the happijacs about 20' in front of the camper. That allows me to use my mirrors to line up straight and square to the camper. Then it's relatively easy to back it in using only the mirrors and fisheyes to see the cones. I usually jump out a couple of times as I get close to check and see if anything's scraping.

Mirrors get you close to centered for loading and if I have 20' to use for loading I don't need anything. I have 10' if that, to load my TC and most of it is in a turn, and my "alignment gimmicks" assure that I'm square to my bed.
