Back up camera

I recently bought a 2013 Thor Majestic A23 that does not have a back up camera. I need to purchase one. Any suggestions welcomed. Thank you

Welcome to the forum! Since backup cameras are not specific to any RV the field is wide open. Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is running the cable from the backup camera to the cab.

RearViewSafety.com is a great place to start your search.

Installed a cheap wireless backup camera in my Thor Gemini. I used the 4.5" Garmin GPS display. Install was pretty easy. The display is only B & W, but, a lot easier to view than the small display in the rear view mirror.

Hope this helps,

Johno - I recently purchased a 23A and I also want to install a backup camera. What did you end up doing? Jim

I installed this camera, from etrailer, on my 23' Four WInds: https://www.etrailer.com/RV-Camera-S...378883000.html
Install wasn't too bad; just ran the wire harness through the rear wall and along the frame to under the driver's seat area. Only thing I haven't found yet is the proper wire to activate the back-up lights, so I hit the power button when I want to use it.

We are still shopping, but the Haloview BT7 Plus seems to pass most all of our requirements.


Everything we have read in reviews seems to say that this wireless will work as well as a wired unit.
