Did you break tabs on the bezel or the actual housing? I pulled the bezel off trying to get the housing out and broke several of the clips and cracked the bezel. Looked to see if you could buy just the bezel, and could not find it, just the whole overhead panel which was close to $400... But I did find a take off on eBay from a Tacoma for $90 for the whole assembly, so i picked that up, removed that bezel and installed in mine, all good now!
Yes, I broke a few tabs on the bezel. Couldn’t get my fingers under the whole assy very well. Fingers are still sore from trying. The few broken tabs did not make much of a difference. Bezel snapped back on and is sitting nice and flush, so no need to replace IMO.

Anyone else get a text message from dealer about scheduling service the next day after installing the DashCam? Told me that my airbag system came on. When installing I did get the audio warning that some system wasn't connected and to go see the dealer. I'm assuming I got this because the headliner console was unplugged while the car was running.

No messages on mine so far after 1 week with it installed. Where did you tap into for the power? Did you connect to the default connector or did you purchase the optional "Sienna" cable for power?

Sienna Cable install. Did you have all components installed before powering back on? I didn't have the headliner console plugged in when I started the vehicle.

From what I remember about my install, I had the vehicle completely turned off during the install process.

I made sure that everything was plugged in and closed up, including the headliner console,, before turning the power on.

So far so good..

Yes, my car was off until install was completed then turned it on to test.

After multiple people breaking clips, I ditched the plan to use the "sienna" cable and just wired up the default way. Took 10 minutes from opening the package to finish setup in the app.

I pulled the overhead console and plugged the camera in and tested it without reconnecting the console plug. I got a voice that said there was a problem when I turned on the ignition. I turned ignition off and reconnected the overhead console and everything was fine. We will see if I get the same message from the dealer, but nothing yet.

I finally got it, took a lot of force. Be careful not to pull down the bezel that goes around the housing or you will break tabs.
Thanks. Can you please post a picture showing directions and what not to do?

Not sure why a hybrid would be any different than the straight gas version. Mine was port installed but your dealer can also do it, I’ve even seen people install it themselves.

Didn't take any pictures but if you watch this video for the Meso Customs light install its the same thing. In this video, they make it look really easy, and it wont be that easy... It just pops out but it takes a lot of force that first time you do it, and you have to be careful that when your pulling down on it, your pulling down on the whole assembly and not just the bezel that's around the outside as you will snap the clips on the bezel if you pull it. There is not a lot of room and it will be pinching your fingers so its just a PITA, its not hard just learn from my mistakes and take more care with the bezel. At the time, I didn't realize it was just the bezel coming down so I kept pulling.

Thanks!!

I also found a video for Tacoma and Looks like it should be same for the 4Runner. Pls check 3:55 mark.



Also, did you disconnect the battery before the installation to avoid any of those errors?

Thanks again.

I did not disconnect, but I also didn't turn the car on until everything was plugged back in. No errors.
