Backup Camera Recommendation for 2005 Dodge Ram 2500
Question:
Id like to purchase a backup camera system and saw a video on youtube where an etrailer technician installed one on a 2009 Dodge Ram 2500. I have an 05 Ram 2500 and am interested in the same backup camera system. I dont want to use a wireless system and am looking for good video quality with night vision. Does etrailer stock this type system?

I recommend going with the Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System, # HM50002, for your 2005 Dodge Ram 2500. This backup camera lets you clearly see objects behind you and works great for hooking up a trailer. This is a fully wired system so no worries about any interference from a wireless device.
Although we do not offer a wired backup camera with night vision, customers have been very satisfied with this camera even at night. Here are a couple of their comments. Customer Mike K. states "the camera provided a crisp picture in the dark even on rainy nights" and Dan S. "the night time viewing on screen is bright and sharp."
The wiring harness included measures 19'7". If additional wiring is needed, we offer the a 5' Extension Cable # HM3100504060 and a 25' Extension Cable # HM3100504061 for the Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera.
