8601 Instructions 7-20-12.doc Page 2 of 4
Step 1: Install Camera Mount. Place Camera
Mount in desired position to confirm fitment (Note:
Some states prohibit items blocking the vehicle
license plate; check local authorities to confirm
legal status for your specific application).
Step 2: Using the supplied Template, mark
and drill two 5/16” holes for the camera
mounting bolts and three 5/16” holes for the
Camera Mount opening. NOTE: If your vehicle
has a liftgate panel/trunk trim cover, it must be
removed.
Step 3: Using a Roto tool or a file, open up
the area between the three holes you just
drilled. The opening should now match the
opening on the Template.
Step 4: Mount the Camera using the supplied
hardware. Insert the 2 rubber nut inserts into the
outer holes and use a Phillips screwdriver to thread
the bolts in but do not tighten them down just yet.
Step 5 (if necessary): Using a ½” drill bit, drill
an opening for the head of the Camera
Harness to pass through. Insert Camera
Harness head through the hole. (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 metal.)
Step 6: Snap the head of the Camera Harness
into the Camera. (CAUTION: This is a permanent
connection and cannot be disconnected without
compromising the integrity of the connection).
Step 7: Determine location of vehicle power
and ground. Using a vehicle specific service guide
and/or vehicle specific wiring diagram and a multi-
meter or computer-safe test light, locate which side
of the vehicle containing the following wires into
which you will need to tap for the Video Display
Harness wiring (see Chart A).
