Before You Begin Installation
Before You Begin Installation
Before drilling please check that no cable or wiring is on the
other side of the wall. Please clamp all wires securely to reduce
the possibility of them being damaged while vehicle is in use.
Keep all cables away from hot or moving parts and electrical
noisy components.
We recommend doing a benchmark test before installation
to insure that all components are working properly.
Step 1: Choose the monitor and camera locations.
Step 2: Install all cables in vehicle, when necessary a 0.8 (20mm)
hole should be drilled for passing camera cable through vehicles
walls. Install split grommets where applicable.
Step 3: Once all cables and wiring have been properly routed,
perform a system function test by temporarily connecting the
system. If the system seems to not be operating properly see
troubleshooting (page 15).

REAR VIEW SAFETY
Installation Guide
Camera & Cable
When installing the camera at the rear of the vehicle, remove the existing tailgate handle and replace with the tundra tailgate handle.
Be sure to position the cable properly. The aviation camera cable uses
aircraft grade connectors which means the camera cable can be exposed to all weather elements. Do not run the cable over sharp edges,
do not kink the cable and keep away from HOT and rotating parts.
Fasten all cables and secure all excess cable. Connect camera to the
camera extension cable which runs inside the vehicle. Attach camera to
the center of the license plate are using the screws provided and adjust
the angle. Figure 1.1
Wiring
After connecting the camera to the "camera cable" the camera should
be plugged into AV2 input. Connect the RED 12V power wire to a an
nition power source and the BLACK 12V ground wire to a chassis
ground.
The GREEN wire is the REVERSE trigger wire. Connect this wire to the
vehicle’s backup light circuit to activate the rear-view image whenever
the vehicle shifts into reverse. To connect a second camera, connect it
to AV1 and it can be turned on by pressing the power button on the
monitor. Figure 1.2

Installation Guide
Safety
• Before drilling, be sure no cable or wire is on the other side.
• Feed as much cable as possible into vehicle & clamp securely. This reduces the possibility of
cable being hooked or snagged.
• Camera: Drill a 20mm (0.8in) diameter hole into vehicle body near the
camera and bracket. Insert camera cable into vehicle (be careful not to
kink cable) and fit grommet into hole. Apply sealant around grommet to
increase resistance to water penetration.
