I ran the wire from the mirror along the headliner on the driver's side, and the wire from the camera through the rubber harness located inside the top of the rear liftgate. Similar to what was shown in the youtube video I posted in the comments. There's no need to drill to run the wire.
I...
Eco mode only? Dang. Like another mentioned, seems like in eco mode, need to put the foot on the pedal more. But it looks like it's been working for you. I only throw mine in eco during bumper-to-bumper traffic. Currently at 20mpg.
Anyone else having issues with water dripping from the rear liftgate on the passenger side of the main inner plastic panel with the liftgate in the open position? Sorry I don't have a photo.
I hosed down the vehicle for a car wash, then as I was drying the vehicle, I opened the rear gate and a...
Bummers they don't ship to Hawai'i. 50th state shafted again for no good reason. Hawai'i people understand, and are actually willing to pay the added shipping cost for good products.
As a current 5th and 6th gen owner, I have to say I very much look forward to hopping in the 6th gen versus the 5th. Both drive totally different, and in a good way. The big one for me was the low end torque and ease of the steering of the 6th. The 5th is just classic, smooth truck feel. I...
One other thing I would be careful to do is to seal up that red reverse wire end. The inside of the spoiler gets really wet as it appears to be used to drain the rear end of the roof. I've read that if the red wire end gets exposed to water, it will trigger the camera to enter into reverse...
The black plastic piece just under the rear wiper pops right off. Start by pulling down (gently) with the lift gate closed, the right side of the piece just under the wiper motor.
For the spoiler, after you remove the 4 bolts located under the black rubber grommets, it give it enough opening...
Customer service was great and fast! Turns out the video connector plug came loose due to the cable being run too tight. Made some adjustments, resealed the plug with electrical tape, and BOOM, back up and running! All good 👍
I will say that there was no hesitation for them to ask if I...
Update:
I did end up reinforcing the mount for the rear camera using the method in the youtube video. Went to my local hardware store and found a screw, washer, and nut; and now the camera is very secure.
One thing to note, this morning i suddenly have no signal coming from the rear camera...
For those that are ok with mounting the rear view camera inside the cabin, there is a mount that utilizes the plastic push pin in the headliner to hold the mount to the ceiling, along with double-sided tape. I was considering this option, but i've read the rear glass tint and rain drops...
This is the video I watched on how to do the rear camera install on the exterior. Not my video.
Mounted slightly off to the driver-side to be away from the rear wiper, and also slightly towards the rear glass so that there's some coverage from direct sunlight and rain hitting the lens...
I did the @Wolfbox G900 pro with the rear camera mounted on the exterior just under the liftgate spoiler. There's a 5th gen video on youtube and the 6th gen pretty much followed the same steps. I will say the spoiler on the 6th gen was easier to remove than the 5th gen for running the camera wire.
