Step 3: Use a Center Punch to mark the centers of
the required three holes and drill three pilot holes
using a 1/8” drill bit. NOTE: If your vehicle has a
liftgate panel/trunk trim cover, it must be removed.
Step 4: Drill two 5/16” holes for the camera
mounting bolts and one 5/8” hole for the camera
harness. Use a Deburring Tool or Round File to
smooth edges.
Step 5
(if necessary): Using a 5/8” drill bit, drill an
opening in the trunk or liftgate for the head of the
Camera Harness to pass through. Insert Camera
Harness head through the backside of the hole so
that the gray connector end of the Camera Harness
is inside the trunk or liftgate. (RECOMMENDED:
Protect Camera Harness with a rubber grommet or
by applying a small amount of silicone caulk to the
area that comes into contact with the edges of the
hole. Additional recommendation: If drilling
through sheet metal, apply a Corrosion Inhibitor.)
Step 6: Route head of Camera Harness through the
pass-through you made with the Template.
Step 7: Use a Phillips Screwdriver to remove the
two screws provided in the Camera to secure the
head of the Camera Harness onto the Camera.
Step 8: Preload the screws into the Camera
Harness connector.
Step 9: Align the Camera Harness head so the key
lines up with the slot in the camera, and plug in the
connector. Snug the supplied screws with a Phillips
Screwdriver to create a watertight seal but do not
over tighten.
Step 10: Mount the Camera using the
supplied hardware. Insert the two Rubber Well
Nuts into the outer 5/16” camera mount holes.
Step 11: Thread the two supplied Bolts through
the Camera Mount and into the Well Nuts using a
Phillips Screwdriver but do not tighten the Bolts all
the way down just yet.
Step 12: Determine location of vehicle
Ignition power and Ground. Using a vehicle
specific service guide/wiring diagram and a multi-
meter or computer-safe test light, locate which side
of the vehicle contains the wires into which you will
connect Chassis Harness wiring (see chart below).
