Back up camera:

I just purchased a 2016 32'bhds and it's prepped for a camera in the back. Which is the best one to fit this trailer and wireless.

I am guessing.... I too am interested in a new RV... The literature says prepped. I assume hard wired wireless trans?? I dunno.
If I ever get another, it will have b/u camera.

Prepped means hard wired...You need to buy the wireless camera system so you have a monitor sitting on your dash when back up. That's why I'm trying to find the one that goes with the 32bhds.

If it is the same system that is used on my Flagstaff hybrid, it is a Furrion prep for a Furrion back up camera. The camera is wireless, there is a monitor to pit on your dash. Works pretty good, the camera is plug and play. Turn on your lights and the camera is on.

I ordered one..just got it yesterday. Resolution seems better than my Tahoe's backup camera. Haven't checked the range on it yet as I don't have the new trailer yet, but I've heard it's decent. You'll want model number FOS48TAPK-BL. There's another model (this one comes with the brackets that you won't need as they're already on the trailer) but I found the one with brackets cheaper than without. It's the "48" in the model you're looking for and not the "12". The 48 is observation and has better range and smother video for use as a rear view camera while driving.

Agree, go with the FOS48TAPK-BL. We have it on ours and it works great. Works at night also.
