Thanks. That is exactly what I was looking for. Looks like the part numbers have been changing every year for those cameras. I need to decide if I want to put that many holes in my RV for 4 cameras and then see if I can find one for a decent price.
I hear ya! I only wanted the triple-view digital rear view mirror and mistakenly thought "Trailer Surround Camera System" was what I needed to get that capability in the digital rear view mirror and module under the seat. I added the wired tow mode camera to complete it. But I also got this "Trailer Surround" XN7 option with all these cameras for the 360 view. I did a bunch of research on these forums and youtube and the Ram site and STILL got it wrong. I wish they would have just called it "Trailer 360 Camera System" because the rear facing cameras on the new tow mirrors can also be considered surround. Most people are familiar with a "360 camera" being the top down view you get on many cars, so I would have kept that same nomenclature. But I digress...
I have the tow mode camera and am getting ready to stall it but hate the size of the camera housing. Did you use the stock housing or put it in something smaller? Also do you know if the repeater is weather proof?
Stock housing. My father in law welded a stable bracket arm to have it come off our steel ladder on the back. I would certainly *hope* the repeater is weather proof, but I'm taking up the 20' or so of slack, coiled in an aluminum battery box on my tongue. I'm trying to avoid any permanent mods because we seem to get a new truck or trailer every 3-3.5 years. Not by plan, just keeps happening.
