I used to have a camera for my trailer a few years ago but stupidly sold it with my last trailer! What ones to people recommend now? I'd love if possible to have the view like I had before where you can see behind the trailer like a rear view mirror or a separate view to see the horses.
 
I have a wireless one off amazon that connects to your phone and is magnetic so you can move it between if thats what you mean?
 
Might sound odd, but we use a wireless baby monitor. Can usually pick them up very cheaply on market place. My OH mounted it in the front and then powered it using the lighting cables. The headlights on the car have to be on to power the camera which isn't a problem as I drive with the lights on. Sorry I can't be more specific about the wiring! It works really well, can pan and zoom, it tells the temperature, and I like having a separate display as I often use my phone for navigation.
 
I have a fitted camera which was dead expensive and let the water in after a year so stopped working.

I bought this from amazon, haven't used it that many times but its very good

It connects to your phone but I use a cheap tablet because my phone is doing the directions.

I have a lorry and it wouldn't stick to most of the metal so I guess check that your trailer is magnetic!

I love the idea of it for a trailer, put it on the back of the car whilst hitching, put it in the trailer whilst travelling, put it on the back of the trailer when reversing.
