Tadi Bros----Defective, No Satisfaction, Avoid
About a year ago, I bought a $500 package from Tadi Bros including a backup camera for the truck, backup sensors and a rearview camera for the 5th wheel.
The rearview camera has never worked satisfactorily; it starts out OK then darkens to the point where you can see nothing after driving about 15 miles. I had the brightness jacked up to 100%. They sent me two cameras, had me make it a wired system instead of wireless, had me redo all the grounds, rerun all the wiring. Still same problem, turns dark after a few miles. It took the whole thing to some professionals nearby. They had an identical camera to the Tadi Bros one; it turned dark too. They inspected all the wiring, said it was great.
The local shop had a cheap backup camera w/o all the infrared night vision, correction for light levels, etc. It works great; bright, good color--- happy, happy!
I called Tadi Bros again and told them their cameras have a design flaw. They said no way, I must not be telling the truth. Offered to send me a third camera like the malfunctioning ones, nothing else.
Stay away from Tadi Bros; go to your local shop; you'll same hundreds in the end. I was out over $1200 all told and my local shop could have done it for $300 - $400, labor included!
