Wow! Such a great quality mirror that both auto dims plus has a backup camera input!
Firstly, I want to say that it took me a long time to find the right mirror that did everything I wanted. Unfortunately, there are a ton of mirrors on both Amazon as well as eBay that look exactly like this. The problem is they do not automatically dim, even though the sellers advertise them as such. When you ask they will tell you that the display will dim, but they like to say it in such a way as to trick you. After lots of research, I have concluded that you can't get a good mirror like this for $50. This mirror at $175 is very much worth the price. Other mirrors like it on the internet go well above the $400 range! This is the best bang for your buck.As soon as I opened the box I could instantly tell this was a very well-crafted mirror. Fairly heavy, and the arm that attaches to it is very tight on the ball joints. The great thing about this is the mirror stays where you put it and doesn't shake or rattle while driving. Installation was a snap and took about a half hour, which was mostly just routing the wire.When I first powered it on I was impressed by how well the automatic dimming worked, just like any other dimming mirror. At no point was I able to see the screen itself either, the screen only shows when the backup camera is active. I also like that the mirror comes with a remote that allows you to adjust settings like the positioning of the guidelines. I used the chart in the manual to map out the measurements of where the lines should be and then adjusted while watching the screen. That's it, very easy setup and programming. It works the same way any other standard auto-dimming mirror does. When it's on you see a green light, you can press the power button to enable or disable it. On top of that, this mirror also turns off the auto-dimming while you are in reverse, just like the factory ones.If you wish to connect another camera like a side camera system or front camera, there is a secondary input that allows connection. This input is a "sensing" input that automatically turns on the input if it detects a video signal. As far as both inputs the backup camera input will always take priority. This means if you are using the secondary input and put your car in reverse, the mirror will automatically switch to the backup camera, which makes a lot of sense. Oh boy, am I tempted to hook up a RetroPi for some parking lot gaming between giving rideshare rides! I have to hook something up to it, no man can leave any input unused.Here is the conclusion of what you are going to get when you install this mirror. You are getting a mirror that far exceeds factory quality while having both the luxury of a backup camera as well as an auto-dimming mirror. This mirror saved me from the expensive mission of replacing my radio. Plus, I like to keep my car looking as factory as possible, so I prefer to keep the original radio.Do not buy any other mirror, get this one. You won't regret it!

Works fantastic, easy to install and adds safety to your car!
This camera works just as described. I installed it with no drama. You can watch youtube for removal of the old one, as some Fords now have a special way of removal which requires a tool, but there's videos that show you how to do it with an allen wrench.The wiring and instructions are clear. I bought an autovox camera and all the connections plugged and spliced in with no drama. I do recommend you buy a tap a fuse piggyback to get power for the unit.The camera works well as does the auto dimming/electrochromatic feature. Its quick to react and the green light to show the power is on isn't too bright or offensive. The camera itself also includes lines for the car, so if the camera you buy does not, you still have the red, yellow and green lines so you know where your zones are. The kit that comes with the camera has all the wiring, sheaths, and things you need to make it look like a factory install. Just take your time, and it looks fantastic.I'm considering buying one for my other vehicle as well, as the autodimming feature is really nice.I do have one itsy bitsy complaint, and that is the font that used when the camera is lit up. As this camera has two inputs, one for the reverse cam and the other for a second input, there is a green font in the upper right of the camera part that says "camera" which uses a font that drives me crazy. My suggestion would to be either remove the text all together, or change it to something like arial or something more modern looking. The current font used looks like something out of 1983.

Disappointed
No product support in the USA. Will not work in most late model Chrysler vehicles. This is not indicated in there description or any where else in the offer.Was installed by Chrysler dealer and found not to be compatible with most late model vehicles

Damn shame.
Screen is too transparent. No readily available customer support. Lack of support is an injustice to such a well made product. Foreign cars in the US are commonplace nowadays, yet no adapter available for Volvo. Windshield broke trying to remove old button. Install exceeded cost expectations. Will consider other options before purchasing for our second vehicle.
