The slightly chunky IP67 camera works in most weather conditions but you should look elsewhere if you expect to face extremes regularly rather than face the risk of the camera fracturing over time. The 2.4GHz digital wireless transmission works through the vehicle but doesn’t really have the range to go at the back of a trailer too. These are the benefits of an established brand and model (the downside is newer designs have higher resolution, but this has all the important features).

Useful for many are Yada’s fitting assistance efforts, including videos, a toll-free helpline (in the USA), and their catalog of professional installers, so fitting shouldn’t be a chore, and the system is 12 or 24V compatible and, once fitted, is triggered automatically by reverse gear. If you have a big-ish family car, 5 inches (plus bezel) won’t obscure too much of your forward view so it’s a good choice. That goes to emphasize the fact that, while the size is important, it’s more to do with the space in your vehicle than the viewing experience. Yada actually provides a good range of choices when it comes to monitors, from 2.4-inch options for suction mounting through 3.5 and 4.3 all the way up to this 5-inch. The whole mirror replacement is a touchscreen that lets you see 5 lanes and has a lot of handy functions from split-screen dual view to dragging-and-dropping the reversing guidelines just where you like them once you’ve fitted the camera, and brightness is adjustable (a backlit monitor needs to be much brighter in the day). When you engage reverse and the light comes on, and the device knows to display the rear view on the screen. To use as a simple dash cam, the only cable you’ll need to run is the one from the rear camera to the mirror, but to operate as a back-up camera it also needs to be wired to the reversing light. Assuming you supply the maximum 64GB SD card, that’ll record up to 72 hours, automatically recorded on a loop overwriting the older footage, and adding GPS geodata as it goes.

1080P video might not be the highest resolution available, but the Sony sensors capture good footage which is more than adequate for insurance evaluation. The Auto-Vox V5 is already a great reversing & dash cam, but this ‘Pro’ option is designed to be fitted directly to a car’s fuse box so it really blends into the driving experience.
