Video Transcript for Review of Rear View Safety Backup Camera - G-Series Mirror Backup Camera System - RVS-776718-DCT
Hi everybody, Andy here with etrailer.com. And today we're gonna take a look at this Rear View Safety G-Series backup camera system. This universal replacement mirror monitor will replace most existing rear-view mirrors and give you the convenience of a backup camera displayed on your mirror. You can replace your rear-view mirror with this mirror and have it display your backup camera on a bright 4.3 inch color TFT LCD display that's within this mirror. And the backup camera right here is completely weatherproof with an IP68 rating and it boast excellent night vision. It also has an ultra wide 170-degree viewing angle.
Now this mirror also features auto-dimming to reduce distracting glare from reflected headlights. This mirror has two light sensors. The back sensor here detects ambient light, while the front sensor right here is going to detect light from the headlights behind you. And this also features a built-in compass and temperature display. Now this system comes included with everything that you see here on the table before me.
You're going to get all of the wires, the connectors, and the mounts necessary for installation. You're also going to get a remote control to help you easily go through the menu functions on this mirror to set this up the way that's going to be best for you and your vehicle. Now I went ahead and took some overall measurements of this mirror before our time together. The overall length at the longest points of this mirror here, we're sitting at about 10 5/8 inches long. The overall height at the tallest part of the mirror, we're sitting at about 3 1/4 inches tall.
And then the overall thickness of just the mirror itself, we are sitting right about 1 3/4 inches thick there at the thickest point in this mirror. Now this does also include a user and product manual to again walk you through the features and the installation. And that's going to conclude our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy.
Thank you for joining me..

This style of camera in the mirror solves a lot of location problems on the dash. A good engineered product that should outlast the vehicle its installed on. I had good service from Etrailerr and the item was delivered intact and promptly.

One of our Technicians has about 20 years in truck aftermarket setup and thought that this rear view camera was as good as it gets. In all, the quality, installation flexibility, video quality and adjustments made this product something that we will purchase again. The compass and temperature were a bonus as well as remote control adjustments for grid lines , brightness and such. This shipped very quickly and all components are well labeled and packed. The directions are easy to follow. Our installation is mounted below a safety warning LED light so it is protected but something etrailer might think about is a surround escutcheon type thing for added protection.

I bought this because my daughter and I had both backed the truck into the camper parked in the driveway. So far, it has worked for its purpose. It does not work as well as the factory setup in my Ford Escape. The main problem is seeing the image in the rear view mirror when the sun is bright. I also need to put on my reading glasses to see the image clearly (if I could drive with the seat back another 3 inches I would be fine). The auto-dim feature of the mirror works great.
After the initial install, I moved the camera from over top of the license plate to the bottom of the bumper beside of the hitch receiver, having cut a notch in some of the plastic trim so it would not block the view. That was a huge improvement.
When installing on a mid 2000s Ford Superduty, there are some good videos online for removal of the A-pillar trim and grab handle. There is a wire under the dash related to PTO functionality that provides power only when the key is switched on that you can use to power the unit. Run the cable to the camera under the sill plates (these are in the bottom of the door opening) to the back of the cab before exiting to the underside of the truck. Coil the excess wire here and zip tie it. When having major engine work done, point this wire out to the mechanic in case he has to lift the cab to do the work -- there will be enough extra wire to allow him to do this without disconnecting anything.

I have been very happy with this product. It has had no issues, however this instruction manual could use some improvement. The unit has functioned flawlessly so far.

This product works great as a backup camera and mirror but the Bluetooth audio mic/speaker quality leaves a lot to be desired. Never could get the speaker loud enough, it would play audio over the stereo and the microphone picked up a lot of background noise.

No problems. Works as advertised. I use to have a wireless camera, but that would disconnect now and then, or pick up some ones security camera when driving by. Wired connections are the way.
by: Larry S06/09/2018
Has worked every time transmission put in reverse, picture clear and accurate to proximity. Unsure if it was a problem with the onstar section of the mirror, one time lost signal on a trip, but later worked flawlessly. Defiantly will keep you out of trouble when backing up.

auto dimming backup mirror works great. had a local shop install it---I'll never be without a backup camera in any car I own
by: John J06/06/2019
Great choice. Works very well. My truck lacked 3 things that I had gotten used to having - compass, outdoor air temp gauge. and rear view camera. This solved them all! Takes some trial/error to get temp probe in right spot.
by: Andreas12/28/2018
Still happy with my purchase after one year. It is a quality item I installed in a 2009 Honda Pilot for which install I wrote a guide on the Pilot forums. Cheers!

- Can be Wired So that It's Active All the TimeYou can have the camera on the Rear View Safety Camera kit part # RVS-776718-DCT wired so that it's on all the time. You'd just need to use a keyed power source as the trigger wire instead of the reverse light circuit. The camera and monitor would have no problem running for that length time.
view full answer... - Rearview Camera With Mirror Monitor for 2022 Coachmen Beyond 22CThe Rear View Safety Backup Camera System # RVS-778718N you looked at would be my first choice for a camera with a mirror monitor. This includes a bracket that sits behind your license plate to mount the camera and has a built in 4.3" screen. If you don't plan on mounting this above your license plate you could also use the G-Series # RVS-776718 or # RVS-776718-DCT. These are surface mounted and have the same 4.3" display. The DCT model also has an auto-dimming feature, built-in compass,...
