When we ordered our 2011 Solera we had a camera on the order, when we showed up at the dealer it was missing. We flew to a dealer for pickup so we could not walk away easily. We got a discount and felt ok about that as a resolution.
However after a fair amount of trips now I realize it's really a must for us and our driving comfort level, specially when backing in solo. Does anyone know if the coach is pre-wired for the camera electronics and we could order them and connect to the existing wires? Or do we need to just order a third party system and go to a Camping World or similar? I don't mind doing basic work if some things are there, but don't want to mess with it from scratch.

I don't remember where (may have been Ebay) but seems like I saw a wireless back up camera setup. This may be worth looking into instead of having to run wires through the RV. IMO
I've talked with the guys at Tadi Brothers a bit about a system for my wife's van and as a gift for my folks when they tow their boat. I've found them to be very knowledgeable in helping to wade through all of the various options. Some of those wireless systems are really nice - huge screens but what I really like is the possibility of multiple cameras. That seems to me something of value for a large MH or 5'r. Or maybe I'm just a gadget guy
