My eagle 355mbqs has a camera on/off switch in the "basement" storage cabinet near the water control panel. This switch controls the power to the wire which is accessible behind the center rear marker light.

Just ordered one last night. Brought home our 25BH yesterday and would have loved it to put it in its spot. Thanks to all for all the information.

Duke, I just ordered the same Furrion for my 26bh.
If I installed a few inches higher would I miss the horizontal stud you mentioned.
I've considered replacement of the center marker, but I like your install.
Thanks,

I ordered and installed the Furrion system on my 25BH. Could have not been any easier. The factory left about 18" of blue and white wire taped together for an easy fish down to the hole I drilled below the center light. I've only used the camera for a short drive, but the reception was very good.

If I remember correctly the horizontal stud was a couple of inches above where I installed the camera. So you may end up right on top of it. You could stick a coat hanger down the marker light hole to see how far down the top of the stud is. But I think to be above it, the camera would be hugging the bottom of the marker light.
I would be curious if someone had one of those inspection cameras with the flexible ends that the could stick then end of it in the marker light hole and look down to see exactly what's going on in the wall. Maybe there is an alternate route around what is in the wall?
Good luck with your install and would love to see some pics!!

Nice looking setup you have there! Glad to hear everything went well!!! Would love to see some photos of how it looks on the 25BH!
How far down below the light did you mount it? Did you run into anything in the wall between the camera hole and the marker light hole?
Happy Travels!!

The Furrion instructions recommend 8 inches below the center light, but I installed the camera just shy of five inches below the light. The bottom of the camera just makes contact with the top of the Jayco decal. I routed the wires inside so nothing is exposed. The next time I'm at the storage lot I'll take a picture.

I finally got around to getting some photos of my camera setup.
As for the camera, it has been great. I really like knowing what's behind me as we travel the highways!
Also included a photo of my TPMS monitor, a great piece of mind accessory!

Hey guys love the thread and am excited to have just purchased my first trailer today a 17 26bh...I went with aluminum siding version but had not seen anyone on here that had added the camera to the aluminum siding. It says it is pre-wired as well. Has anyone done this install and was there any issues different than Duke or others experienced during their installs on the fiberglass siding. Thanks in advance.

Hello and Welcome to the JOF! Congrats on you new travel trailer! The 26BH is a very popular unit. We love our 2016.
Take a few minutes and stop by the Welcome Mat and introduce yourself and share some pictures of your new camper with us, we love pictures. You will find a lot of great people here and a wealth of information and experience to be had.
Although the design of the Furrion High Speed Rear Observation System suggests that it should be mounted to a flat surface, a quick google search shows that it has been installed on Aluminum sided campers as well, see pics below. You may just have to put a little extra caulking around the camera shroud. There are other wireless cameras that use a bracket that takes up a lot less space than the shroud on this Furrion camera. May fit better on the aluminum siding. Something to look into.
 
Hope this helps a little, and maybe someone with aluminum siding will chime in that has a camera mounted to their TT.
Happy Camping!!
Duke

I am very curious about this as well. We sold our camper and are picking up a 2018 26bh with aluminum siding on friday. I would really like to add a camera.

It looks like @Greg&Nancy just installed a Furrion camera on their aluminum sided TT in the following thread, I've asked if they wouldn't mind sharing some pics with us.
"Pre wired for backup camera"
