Expert Answers about Camera Bags


  • Do Cargo Carriers Normally Obstruct Taillights and License Plates
  • The Reese Carrier # 63155 that you referenced is 47 inches wide and should sit lower than the taillights of your vehicle (most likely). Mainly due to the width of this carrier it shouldn't interfere at all with the visibility of the taillights. You can measure the distance between your taillights to be certain. This carrier should sit lower and be too narrow to cause issue with that. Also, most likely the cameras that would take a picture of your license plate would be up above and the...

  • Can Backup Camera on 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Be Turned Off When Towing
  • The camera on your 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee should only come on when the vehicle is in reverse. If it also alerts you to the presence of obstructions behind you then you could turn it if it has that feature. My aftermarket backup camera does have a volume control so the alert noise can be turned off. Otherwise, the only time it should bother you is when the vehicle is in reverse. The Curt hitch # C13065 will fit 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee models with or without a back up camera. I have linked...

  • Air Bag Suspension System Options and Rear View Camera for a 2017 Toyota Sienna
  • I would be happy to answer those questions for you. The Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs item # AL60732 provide 1,000 lbs of support. Anything over that maxes out the system and it won't work as well. It is recommended not to exceed this capacity. The Firestone Coil-Rite Air Helper Springs item # F4155 is a nearly identical kit with the exception of the valves. With cost and availability being practically identical I would choose the Firestone kit over the Air Lift because...

  • Does Furrion Supply Mounting Screws For Vision S Camera Systems
  • Hi Charles, The screws you have in the picture are the ones needed if you were mounting the camera # FOS07TASF into an already mounted shark fin camera mount. If you don't have a prepped trailer with the mounts already in place then you'll need to pick up some self-tapping screws from your local hardware store in order to mount the shark fin camera mount. Furrion does not provide the mounting screws.

  • Wireless Observation Camera That Does Not Require Installing Monitor on Vehicle
  • We do have a wireless camera system that use your smartphone or iPad as the display so there is no need to mount a monitor in the passenger compartment. The Rampage Wireless Backup Camera # RA7710 features a rechargeable battery-powered camera with a magnetic mount for quick and easy non-permanent installation when you need it. This means no wiring and that you can put the camera just about anywhere you need it. The Rampage has a 300-foot transmission distance too so it will work fine...

  • I've attached some pictures showing the size of the ball in the monitor mount of the Voyager RV Observation Camera System w/ Monitor and Mount - 4.3" LCD Monitor Item # VOM43HDCL1B. The ball is a little oblong and the flat portion up top is wider than the stem it's on.

  • Will a Trailer Hitch on a 2012 Range Rover Evoque Require Trimming or Interfere with Camera/Sensors
  • We do have the Curt trailer hitch for the 2012 Range Rover Evoque, # C13128. There is no drilling required for installation but the exhaust will need to be temporarily lowered for installation and there is some minor fascia and heat shield trimming required. I have included a link to the installation instructions so you can see a little more detail on the trimming that is needed. There are also some lovely pictures in the hitch instructions that show the finished result of the installation....

  • Will the Backup Camera Still Work After Installing Curt C89UR on 2021 Toyota Venza
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C89UR will not interfere with the backup camera on your 2021 Toyota Venza. The camera is located just above the license plate on the rear of your vehicle, and the hitch mounts below the rear bumper. I have attached a picture below showing the receiver tube below the bumper. Based on this picture you wouldn't even be able to see it on the backup camera. The # C89UR is a custom fit Class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a concealed cross tube so only...

  • Does Draw Tite Hitch for 2018 Honda CRV Interfere with Back Up Camera
  • Installing the Draw Tite trailer hitch part # 76128 on your 2018 Honda CR-V would have no affect on the backup camera of your vehicle or the side hazard warning system. I attached an install video for this hitch for you to check out as well. For trailer wiring you'd then want the part # 118741 which is a confirmed fit. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one...

  • Routing the Wiring for the Truck Bed Cargo Camera on a 2014 Ford F350 Super Duty
  • When routing the wiring for the Truck Bed Cargo Camera for 8" Factory Monitor # 3460006 you should be able to run it inside the trim that runs from the roof to your dash. Whenever we route wiring on any vehicle this is typically a safe place to run it. Although we haven't performed this specific installation on a 2014 Ford F-350 Super Duty you can see in the attached review video where we did this on a similar Super Duty.

  • Like you said, there are no restrictions for Draw-Tite trailer hitch # 75940 on a 2016 Audi Q5 models with back up camera and parking sensors. It is listed by Draw-Tite as a fit for all models of the 2016 Q5. The only note on it is that on models that have the back up camera may require fascia trimming for the hitch receiver tube. I have included a picture from the instructions showing the trimming location. If you plan on doing some towing I recommend etrailer ball mount kit # 989900....

  • Recommended Backup Camera and Rear Air Spring System for 2008 Toyota Tundra
  • Starting with the backup camera, I highly recommend the Rear View Safety Backup Camera System # RVS-776614-213. This particular system includes two different cameras, one for the rear of your truck and one with infrared for the rear of your trailer. The 7 inch TFT digital LCD color monitor will give you a clear picture of what is behind you so you can easily avoid stumps and other obstacles when going in reverse. Its simple wiring connections with the quick connect/disconnect kit will allow...

  • Fitment and Compatibility of Cargo Carrier and Cargo Bag on a 2015 Honda CR-V
  • I can help you answer all your questions about the cargo carrier and bag for your 2015 Honda CR-V. First thing we will want to make sure is that you have a 2 inch trailer hitch receiver on your CR-V. If you need one I recommend the Draw-Tite # 75742. This Class III hitch has a high weight capacity and will work well for you, because ultimately you will be limited by the lowest rated components capacity. If you already have a factory hitch we will just want to make sure it is a 2 inch...

  • Availability of Custom Towing Mirrors for 2023 Ford F-150 With Tremor Package
  • Although there are no slip on towing mirrors, there are snap on custom mirrors for your 2023 Ford F-150. I recommend the K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors # KS69NQ. These will fit your existing mirrors and have cutouts that will allow you to retain the use of your factory mirror features like your camera underneath. They have a tool-free installation and come with a bag to store them when not in use. I have attached an installation video below for your reference.

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendation for 2013 Range Rover Evoque
  • The Curt hitch part # C13128 that you referenced has been confirmed as a fit for both a 2012 and 2013 Land Rover Evoque so it would work well for you. I attached an install video for you to check out as well. For wiring you would use # 118624. The wiring will not interfere with the operation of the camera or sensors.

  • Trailer Hitch, Wiring, and Tow Capacity for a 2016 or 2017 Mercedes GLC 300 w/Surround View Camera
  • Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" Item # C13290 is listed as a fit for all models of the 2016 - 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class GLC300 and does not exclude models that have the Surround View camera system. The vehicle towing capacity is either 3,500 pounds or 4,850 according to the owner's manual f0or the 2016 GLC 300.

  • Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2016 Mazda CX-5
  • The location of the backup camera on the 2016 Mazda CX-5 is high enough that if you were towing a trailer you would see it but it would not be totally obstructed by the trailer behind the vehicle. All of the hitches will install in the same place so there wouldn't be a single option that would change the viewing angle. The hitch I recommend though is the Draw Tite part # 76138 which is a confirmed fit. For trailer wiring you want the part # 118563 which is a custom fit. I attached an install...

  • Recommendations for Rear Air Bags for Ford 2009 F-250 FX4 no 5th Wheel and Wireless Compressor Kit
  • Both Firestone and Airlift are quality products, and both are have confirmed fits for your truck. My recommendation is to use the AirLift Load Lifter 5000 Kit # AL57398, and instead of investing the money in a wireless compressor system, I recommend the Airlift Quick Shot Compressor System # AL25690. With the Quick Shot Compressor System you have the option of having an on-board 2 gallon reserve air tank, and accessory hose. The in-dash controller allows for continual monitoring, and...

  • Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2011 Audi Q5
  • On your 2011 Audi Q5, models that have the backup camera could have a slightly different fascia that apparently could hang down a little further requiring a little bit of trimming around the square part of the trailer hitch # 75940. It does not affect every vehicle though (actually seems to be rare since it is not mentioned in the instructions nor had the manufacturer heard of this issue) and could be a situation where it depends on which factory the vehicle was assembled in but the details...

  • Upgraded Suspension and Towing Package for a 2017 Sienna XLE
  • Upgrading the rear suspension in your 2017 Toyota Sienna sounds like a solid plan considering all the weight you are carrying around inside your van. Since you're using a Sienna as a platform you are going to be limited on options for upgrades. There is an air bag kit it is the Air Lift 1000 Air Helper Springs for Coil Springs item # AL60732. This system fits inside your factory coil springs to provide you with a 1,000 lbs of load-leveling support. There are no Sumo Spring or Timbren kits...
