Rear view camera

Hey all, Charlie here. We have a 2021 Forest river Wildwood FSX. It’s pre-wired for a Furion camera. Those things seem to be pretty pricey, and I’m looking at alternatives. Any advice would be helpful. That said, I would like something that would be plug-and-play so I don’t have to drill any additional holes or make any additional exterior modifications. Thanks so much.
Edit: Also curious what you guys think about additional cameras on the sides.

There are literally thousands of posts/threads here, on this topic .
A quick search will get you weeks of reading.
Most choose a Haloview camera system. They offer a Furrion adapter mount for the camera.

Moved to the Appliances and Electronics sub-forum.

Thank you for the response, I need to figure out how to search the threads. I’m fairly new. Didn’t mean to cause anybody any extra work. Hope you guys have a great day.

It's not a problem asking. I was simply letting you know that a lot of information is already available on the Forum, without having to wait for responses.
Your question is a very common topic here.
If they have a choice, very few go with a Furrion system. There are much cheaper and better choices out there, like the Haloview systems I mentioned.
As to the side cameras, I wouldn't bother, for a 23ft TT. I have a 26ft TT and I do just fine with tow mirrors and the rear observation camera.
