My VR3 worked pretty well for a while. I used it wireless, but it kept "seeing" security cameras. I hard-wired it and that worked fine. Lately, though, the camera seems like it's fogged.

Costco has a nice one, but the monitor is too big (7"). My 300C has the backup sensors. Those work VERY well.

I have one like this, it has nightvision and works really good i bought it off ebay for like $20. I also have a pioneer avic for the picture so i didnt not need to buy a screen. I mounted it right beside the rear licence plate you can;t even tell its there.

The "VR3" brand does have a lot of static. I also noticed that it lacks depth perception.

Do sensors take into account a trailer hitch? Anyway to set them to sense the added length away from the bumper?

Mine are made out of rubber
Very easy to install and because they are relatively flexable very easy to install.
