The reviews
Furrion Vision S+ 7" Observation System (rear sharkfin + 2 side cameras)
Premium · ~$500 · the factory-match flagship
If your coach is Furrion-prepped, the rear sharkfin camera drops right onto the existing mount and pre-wiring, and the two side cameras give you the wide situational awareness a long rig needs when merging or threading a campground loop. Three feeds on a 7" display is the closest thing to seeing around your whole coach at once.
Pros
- True drop-in on Furrion-prepped coaches
- Three-camera coverage for long rigs
- Large, clear 7" display
Cons
- Most expensive option here
Haloview RD7-MINI Wireless 7" System
Premium · ~$250 · the all-rounder to beat
For owners whose coaches are not Furrion-prepped, this is the system to buy. The 7" monitor is bright and easy to read, and the wireless link holds up to roughly 1,200 feet of line-of-sight range, which is more than enough for a tow setup. It hits a sweet spot of screen size, range, and price that nothing else here quite matches.
Pros
- Up to 1,200 ft line-of-sight range
- Bright, readable 7" screen
- Strong value for the feature set
Cons
- Not a Furrion-mount drop-in
Furrion Vision S 5" Wireless (rear sharkfin cam)
Mid · ~$250 · the simplest drop-in
When you only need a clean rear view and your coach is Furrion-prepped, this is the tidiest install you can do. The sharkfin camera matches the factory rear-wall mount, the 5" monitor is plenty for backing, and the system is expandable later if you decide to add side cameras down the road.
Pros
- Cleanest fit on a Furrion-prepped rear wall
- Expandable with side cameras
Cons
- Smaller 5" screen than the flagship
eRapta Wireless RV Backup Camera (1080p, Furrion-compatible)
Mid · ~$150 · Furrion mount, lower price
You do not have to buy Furrion to use a Furrion mount. This eRapta is built to fit the same factory rear bracket at a noticeably lower price, with a sharp 1080p sensor, IP69K weather sealing, and solid night vision for those after-dark arrivals. It is the value play for prepped coaches.
Pros
- Fits the Furrion factory mount for less
- 1080p with IP69K sealing
- Good night vision
Cons
- Not the OEM-matched cosmetic fit
Yakry Y22 HD Wireless RV Backup Camera
Mid · ~$160 · sharp 1080p, simple wireless install
For a coach or trailer that is not Furrion-prepped, the Yakry Y22 is a clean way to add a rear view without chasing factory brackets. The 1080p camera pairs to a bright monitor over a stable digital link, the housing is IP69 weather-sealed, and the kit is built for a tidy install on the back wall. A dependable middle-ground pick between the Furrion ecosystem and a bare-bones budget cam.
Pros
- Crisp 1080p with good night vision
- Stable digital wireless link
- IP69 weather sealing
Cons
- Not a Furrion-mount drop-in
- Single rear view, no side cameras
Auto-Vox Solar Wireless Backup Camera
Budget · ~$120 · solar, no wiring
For a smaller Class C or a travel trailer where you would rather not run any wiring, the solar-powered Auto-Vox is the easiest entry into having a rear view at all. The camera charges itself in daylight and links wirelessly to the monitor, so a basic install takes minutes instead of an afternoon.
Pros
- Solar powered — no wiring to run
- Easiest install of the bunch
- Lowest price to get a rear view
Cons
- Best suited to smaller rigs
How to choose
First, check whether your coach is Furrion-prepped
Before you compare anything else, look at your rear wall. A great many Thor-family Class A and C coaches ship Furrion-prepped, with a factory mounting plate and pre-run wiring already in place behind the back cap. If yours is, a Furrion camera is a genuine drop-in: you mount the sharkfin to the existing bracket and you are done, no drilling or cable-fishing. That single fact often decides the whole purchase, so confirm it first.
Match the camera count to the length of your rig
A short trailer needs one good rear view. A long Class A threading campground loops and merging with a toad benefits from side cameras too, so you can see down both flanks when changing lanes. If you regularly tow, a three-camera observation system is worth the extra cost; for a compact rig, a single rear cam is plenty.
Mind the wireless range if you tow
Wireless cameras are rated by line-of-sight range, and a flat-towed vehicle puts the camera farther from the monitor than you might expect. Look for systems quoting roughly 1,000 feet or more of line-of-sight range so the signal stays solid across a full coach plus a toad. For backing-only use, shorter range is fine.
Weather sealing and night vision are not optional
Your rear camera lives outside in road spray, rain, and dust year-round, so look for a high ingress rating such as IP69K. Night vision matters too, because plenty of arrivals happen after dark, and the moment you most need to see behind you is often the moment with the least light.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my RV is Furrion-prepped?
Look at the rear wall of the coach for a factory mounting plate, usually a rectangular bracket near the top center, with pre-run wiring behind it. Many Thor-family Class A and C coaches ship this way, and if yours has it, a Furrion sharkfin camera drops straight onto the mount with no drilling or cable-fishing.
Can I use a non-Furrion camera on a Furrion-prepped coach?
Yes. Cameras like the eRapta are built to fit the same factory bracket at a lower price, so you get the clean drop-in install without buying the Furrion brand. You give up only the exact OEM cosmetic match.
How much wireless range do I need if I flat-tow a car?
A toad puts the camera farther from the monitor than a bare coach does, so look for systems quoting roughly 1,000 feet or more of line-of-sight range to keep the signal solid. For backing-only use without a tow, shorter range is fine.
Do I need side cameras or is a single rear camera enough?
A short trailer is well served by one good rear view. A long Class A that merges on the interstate and threads campground loops benefits from side cameras so you can see down both flanks when changing lanes, which is where a three-camera observation system earns its cost.
Are wireless RV backup cameras hard to install?
Generally no. A solar model like the Auto-Vox needs no wiring at all and mounts in minutes, while most other wireless kits only require power to the camera and a monitor in the cab. A true Furrion drop-in on a prepped coach is the easiest of all.
