I can’t have a hitching mirror put on my trailer as it’s On hire but I need something to help me line it up straight.

is there a removable mirror I can buy?

-or any alternative ideas? It’s for a 401 single trailer.

thanks

I have always bought little reversing cameras from amazon - they're around £40. A bit of wiring needed to connect them to the power of your reversing light, but if you or someone you know is handy that's free, right? :) It's honestly SUCH a timesaver (and makes parking easier too!)

I have a little camera with a magnetic mount. I use mine inside the trailer to keep an eye on the horse, but it's sold as a reversing camera. You simply download the safetycam app and it even has a little optional grid. It was about £50 I think. The easy mounting means you can just move it around, so use it for reversing AND to check on horsey.

OP - got two smart phones with whatsapp or facetime video
Blue tack one facing the hitch and monitor on the other = IDEA ?

I wish I could afford two smartphones (and they were disposable enough that I'd blue-tack them to the back of my car!) :D:D
