Will The K-Source Backup Mirror Increase Visibility For A 2010 Toyota Camry In Tight Parking

Question:

I have a Toyota Camry 2010. I have 3 cars parked in back of me right now with cars park on the side of me. I need to see how close my back is. A view of the my bumper would be great but not possibly I know. Will this give me enough view to back up without hitting any body in back.

I pulled the K-Source Backup Mirror # KSC088 from the warehouse and tested it out on some fellow employee vehicles to see just how much visibility it can add and found that it's not really compatible with slanted back windows like you'd have with your Camry. You'd have to have more of a vertical window in order to really see any benefit.

A better option would be to use a license plate camera like the Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System # HM50002 to get a better view of what's behind you.
