avoid any and all backup cams under 40 bucks on amazon. I've tried several and after 2-3 car washes these get water inside the lens and never dry. It's really easy to install yourself if you have some basic electrical wiring knowledge. I'd gander in the direction of $250-$300 to pay a shop to put one in

yeah was worried about the cheap ones, was thinking of going for 80-150 $
best buy charges 130$ to install.

I was given a quote of $1200 for a rear-view mirror with built in screen and backup camera, which I think is a ripoff.

Ugh I'd never let best buy work on my things, do it yourself, you care about your truck those guys make 12.00 a hour and couldn't care less about the install

might want to invest in a rearview mirror and a couple of sideview mirrors first. those and the ability to turn your head and eyes at an angle

baby steps.
