I am considering adding a right side camera because there are times the passenger window is difficult to see through because of light glare which effectively hides the mirror.

Has anyone done this? We're ya happy with the results?

I only see "cad#3" wire feed wire coming out of the back of the Voyager monitor...cad#2 is probably buried in the dash somewhere... Which one is for the right side? All the trigger wires seem to be plugged in...

Sure appreciate any thoughts on this...

I have side cameras and never look at the monitor. However, I always use a Fresnel lens, no vehicle or bicycle can hide in the blind right hand corner. I started using the portable lens 40 years ago. When positioned correctly it eliminates the blindspot and you get change back from a $10 bill.

"Yarddroid"......Mine came with side cameras and I really don't use them. As a matter of fact, I rarely use the turn signals once I start to change lanes because the picture is deceptive.

My coach has a standard mirror and a wide angle under. I keep the wide angle mirror focused so that I can see anything alongside the coach.

Not to deter you, but many fine them useless. I thought they would be nice when backing into a campsite and I can't see something low alongside the coach. The problem is, when the coach is in reverse, the backup camera overrides the side cameras.
