I just wrapped up the installation of the rear view camera and monitor my kids got me for my birthday. It is a 'wireless' system, but required hard wiring to the camera and monitor. I could have taken a shortcut and wired the camera to the backup lights or running lights, but I wanted the option of switching the whole thing from the dash without having lights on. There are several options for powering both units and cords to match. It was a lot of work, taking things apart and putting them back together again to run the wiring, but it was worth it in the end. Sorry I didn't take many pictures, but most of the work was kind of tedious and specific to my coach with the custom Bruce Tara installed headliner.
The hardware is only labeled as a "Yada Backup Camera with 5" Dash Monitor". I suspect the kids ordered it from Amazon. It seems to work well, but I haven't had it out on the road yet, so time will tell.
