Step 1: Place Camera Mount in desired position to confirm fitment. (IMPORTANT: Some states prohibit items blocking the vehicle license plate; check local authorities to confirm legal status for your specific application).

Step 2: Peel adhesive backing from supplied Camera Mount Template and apply to the desired location making sure that the camera direction is correct.

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.

NOTE: If self-adhesive Template is missing or damaged, cut out the image above and affix with Masking Tape.

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: Remove vehicle mirror.

CAUTION: Removing the mirror can cause

damage to the windshield.

Step 13: Attach supplied Mirror to the windshield

using a T20 Torx Driver. This mirror has a Wedge/

D-tab style mounting base. Please check our

compatibility chart to make sure it is compatible

with your vehicle (adapters are available for

specific applications separately).

IMPORTANT: Torque for the mirror screw that

attaches to the windshield tab is 1.8 Nm (16 lb-in) and cannot exceed 2.2 Nm (19.5 lb-in).

Step 14: Determine location of vehicle Ignition

power and Ground. Using a vehicle specific service

guide/wiring diagram and a Digital Multi-Meter or

Computer-Safe Test Light, locate which side of the

vehicle contains the wires into which you will

connect Mirror Harness wiring (see chart below).

Step 16: Insert supplied Orange lead into 16-pin

connector cavity 5 and White lead into 16-pin connector cavity 16 until they click into place. If they do not seat initially, use Delphi Terminal Tool 12094429 or a small flatblade watch repair screwdriver to press the terminals fully into the connector. Next, press down on the TPA to lock the terminals.

Once correct wires have been identified, turn

Ignition key OFF and DO NOT TURN key back ON

until the install has been completed (Step 25).

(Follow Steps 15-17 only if your vehicle is

equipped with Exterior Auto Dimming

Mirrors. Otherwise, proceed to Step 18).

Step 15: Located on the bottom side of the 16-pin

mirror connector is a rectangular white bar called a

Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) tab. Use Delphi

Terminal Tool 12094429 or a Small Flatblade Watch

Repair Screwdriver to release the TPA as shown.

The TPA will only lift about 1/10

For vehicles not listed, use a Digital Multimeter to identify the wires in the existing vehicle mirror harness that feed the Exterior Auto-Dimming Mirrors. Splice supplied Orange lead to AutoDimming (+) and White lead to Auto-Dimming (–).

Step 18: Plug the black 16-pin connector into the rear of the mirror.

Step 19: Route supplied Mirror Harness under the headliner and down the A-pillar nearest vehicle power and reverse signal.

Step 20: Splice the red and green Mirror Harness leads into the corresponding vehicle wires and the black wire to chassis ground. (Note: Soldering recommended or use supplied T-taps as optional connection method). RECOMMENDED: Attach an eyelet to the black ground wire.

Red - Ignition controlled power 12v+ when key

is turned ON and 14.4v or better when vehicle is running.

Black - Chassis ground.

Green - Connect to Reverse + signal (backup

lamp).

Note: If installing in a Ford vehicle with a separate

compass display on the instrument panel and it displays “– –“ after the OE mirror is removed, you must follow online steps in Section 6 of 1008-9520 instructions posted at www.Brandmotion.com in order for it to function again.

Step 23: Route Chassis Harness forward. It may be necessary to remove sill plates, pillar covers, seat bottoms, side panels, etc. In some cases even the seatbelt bolts at the bottom of the pillars must be removed.

CAUTION: Any bolts removed for safety devices

must be retightened to manufacturer’s specified

torque specifications). Use a Plastic Trim

Removal Tool to avoid damage to trim pieces.

Step 24: Secure Camera Harness to existing vehicle wiring using supplied Wire Ties. This will minimize chance of binding or otherwise damaging the harness

Step 25: Connect Chassis Harness to supplied Mirror Harness.

Step 26: Test the system. Inspect that all connections are proper and secure. Clear all loose items removed from the area around the vehicle and turn ignition key ON to test system. Once Reverse gear is engaged the camera image should appear on the mirror.

Step 27: Secure Chassis Harness and Mirror Harness with supplied Zip Ties. If necessary, coil excess harness wire and secure with Zip Ties. Attach to existing vehicle wiring where possible.

Step 28: Adjust camera aim. With the aid of an assistant, move camera to desired view, and tighten the Bolts that hold the camera in place.

Step 29: Reassemble vehicle. Follow your disassembly steps in reverse order, taking care not to bind the harness wiring when reinstalling.
