Here are the main reasons why this component is considered essential:

1. Elimination of Blind Spots

On long or tall vehicles (campers and vans), rear visibility is often zero. A dedicated monitor allows you to constantly monitor what's happening behind the vehicle, identifying obstacles, pedestrians, or cyclists that the side mirrors can't see.

2. Ease of Parking and Manoeuvring

Thanks to its compact size (approximately 11-12 cm diagonal), the 4.5" monitor can be positioned on the dashboard without obstructing the forward view.

• Guidelines: Many of these monitors support the overlay of colored lines that indicate the remaining distance.

• Precision: Allows you to get within a few centimeters of walls or other vehicles without risk of collision.

3. Load or Trailer Monitoring

For those towing a trailer or caravan, a color monitor allows you to:

• Check that the hook is secure.

• Monitor external cargo (such as bicycles on the camper's bike rack).

• Check the stability of the trailer when driving on the highway.
