Customers are impressed with the Rearview Backup Parking Assist Camera & Display Monitor System Kit, although some have noted issues with the camera's performance in bright sunlight, resulting in a washed-out or unclear image. A few customers also found the included cables to be too short. The display's brightness was also a point of concern for some users. Overall, while there are some drawbacks, the system appears to be generally well-received.

I purchased this because I didn't want to have to look down at my in dash stereo screen to view the camera. This works, bit is almost useless in the daytime. The screen is very dim and I have to hold my hand up to share it in order to really see out of it. In lower light it's good but it doesn't have night vision, so if it's dark you can't really see too well. The good news is that it was easy enough to install myself. Its not perfect, but for the price it's a good product.

Display is hard to see in bright daylight. The video cable was too short and the power plug that came with it would not make contact, as the center pin was too small of a diameter to make contact. Otherwise it works great. The camera is quite good.

Love it but wish I had a larger view. Being my back window is tinted I get a glare too which makes it a little difficult to see; at least I didn’t have to change my radio though. The price was great but installation was much higher, worth it.

Good option when no logical place for a dedicated monitor. A bit difficult to see in daylight, but shouldn't be only view to rely on.

OEM look and I got it installed through Geek Squad. It's too early to give 5*. I will update it after a few months of use.

This unit was an excellent value. Bestbuy matched a competitor's price of 64.00. Their install was very clean looks like it came from the factory. I dont need 1080P for backing up this provides good overall quality.

For the money this works great. It comes with one camera, but has the option to add a second camera. The mirror clarity is very good.

Great Backup Camera and Easy To Install

I purchased this backup camera to replace one that used a wireless transmitter and broke the first month in. This was very easy to install (didn't come with very detailed instructions, but I knew what I was doing). If you buy it at best buy, you could have geek squad install it too (just costs extra). I am an engineer so it was easy for me to do.
Otherwise, it is nice to have a backup camera that is a solid connection. It works everytime now and doesn't cut out. Also nice that it is a widescreen display. My old one was a square 4:3 display.

Problem backing because I couldn't really see behind the vehicle. Now I have no problem backing up. Nice job and great communication. Thanks John.

Excellent product for the money ,works very good and the best buy installation was also fast and very professional,I installed on my SUV and I recommend his to everyone that is thinking about it thinking that the price is low and maybe won’t be a good quality. But you get surprised how well it’s performed.

I purchased this for my youngest son’s 2008 Accord, it was inexpensive but very good quality. I wish I had other cars that needed a Back-Up Camera. I purchased 1 for my Tundra...clarity is superb...buy this if you need an inexpensive back up camera.
