Based on your information, I recommend the Rear View Safety Backup Camera System with Trailer Tow Quick Connect Kit, Item # RVS-776614-213. It has two cameras: one for your 2002 Chevrolet Silverado and one for your 28 foot camper trailer. This is a completely wired system and has a 7 inch monitor with grid lines. As you are backing up, it will automatically switch between the two cameras. It has a simple wiring connection and everything you need for installation is included. The Rear View Safety backup camera is perfect for fifth wheel or travel trailer situations and is one of the best options we have available.

I have attached a video to assist you as you consider backup camera options.
