How to Install Rear View Backup Camera on a 2007 - 2013 Toyota Tundra

Most modern cars and trucks come with a ton of features and amenities that most drivers hardly need, but there's one feature that has always come in handy-the rear-view backup camera. Most cars and trucks five years to a decade old didn't feature backup cameras as standard equipment like they do today, so if you want one, you have to go aftermarket. In this video, I will show you how I install my aftermarket rear-view backup camera on my 2008 Toyota Tundra to my aftermarket stereo.

Perfect. I just bought a 2007 tundra 2 days ago and wanted to install a backup camera with the list of other mods. This is going to be the first vehicle I have owned with a backup camera.

[@JustMe619toby]

Wanted to thank you again for this video. I bought the backup camera, and was having the head unit installed a week later so I ran everything to where the stereo will be and when I had the guy install the stereo he looked at me confused when I asked him to finish the hook up of the camera. He asked how I hooked it up and I told him and for some reason he was confused lol. But the camera works awesome

[@Tony2Ton]

That’s awesome!!! Thank you for coming back and leaving a awesome comment!! I’m glad o could help

[@dmac8548]

Thanks for making this video. I researched my butt off to find the best option for a backup camera for my '08 tundra. I ended up getting this exact tailgate camera from amazon, and an aftermarket receiver from crutchfield. I ran the wires exactly as you did, which turned out to be the easiest way to do it, and looks very neat. I was very pleased at the quality of both the tailgate handle and the picture from the camera. It was package nicely, already has the split wire loom installed, and was very simply to install. The only issue I had was wiring the positive and negative wires. I wired the positive side to the positive wire on the radio harness, but for some reason when I wired the negative wire to the ground wire of the radio harness, the camera would not work. I had to ground the camera to the truck frame. It wasn't a big deal, it just took a while to figure out the issue. I definitely recommend this tailgate camera to anyone with a 2007-2013 toyota tundra.

[@Tony2Ton]

Wow!!! Thank you for coming back and leaving a feedback and comment!!! I’m glad it worked out for you!! I would have grounded it to the frame too but it worked out for me grounding it to a ground wire.. I was lazy looking for a hole or drill a hole for the ground wire.. lol

@Branson Ford Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@titusgage85]

@Branson Ford it worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much you saved my account !

[@leonardopillias7610]

Could you go into more detail on how to run the wires from the tailgate to the dashboard?

[@smarterthanyou9090]

The music is REALLY loud and obnoxious. Aside from that, you did a GREAT job in this video. Well done, and thank you!

[@CraigMatthews-CyberSchizo]

I upgraded my old stock camera to the Dasaita Tailgate Reverse Camera but now I don't see the trailer hitch on my vehicle like I did with the stock OEM camera. I used to see the trailer hitch and bumper along with everything else. It was very useful for parallel parking and backing into the driveway so my hitch wouldn't hit the garage. I notice your camera in the video is doing the same thing. Have you been able to adjust the camera down a bit?

[@kikib3573]

Wow very nice but a lot of work, I wish I could get this done, was this a new improved camera cuz mine shows in grey scale instead of showing clear like these new models

[@adamloosley401]

Awesome song too.

[@thegourmetgrandadandfamily]

Very helpful Tony .... 👍👍

[@Tony2Ton]

The Gourmet Grandad thank you sir!!! Stay safe and healthy

[@patrick_aKa_HOUSE]

I'm installing mine tomorrow. I am replacing the stereo unit as well. I previously purchased a stereo that was having a compatibility issue with the camera... Wish me luck!

[@Tony2Ton]

good luck buddy!!!

[@patrick_aKa_HOUSE]

Did you have any issues splicing into the reverse light? Stereo is not picking the backup camera up

[@bobtheraptorjoe577]

Very nice Tony Mammal! Interesting change of pace

[@Tony2Ton]

Bob the Raptor thank you!!! Something different

[@JustMe619toby]

Great music and video. But how is the back up feature work? Is it connected in radio, didn't see you connect to reverse lights

[@Tony2Ton]

T bailey with my aftermarket stereo, I connected to my aux ... I have to push the aux to activate the backup camera... it doesn’t automatically jump to camera when I backup.. not sure if about other stereo system

[@crispychicken2743]

But never the less a good video and job in the install .

[@GopnikVlad]

Very helpful! Thank you!

[@bartito15]

Where do I find those clips you used to splice the wires? What are they called? Thanks for the video!

[@valhallametalworkshagen2856]

Good stuff man! I appreciate the video

[@JarodMatta]

Can you give the company you got the harness from? Thanks

[@crispychicken2743]

Hay . Its plug and play if you get the factory parts . The morrow has the plug and the truck is pre wired. . Installed in my 2010 with parts from junk yard for 75 buck for everything plugged it all in and it works great . If you want it on your radio there is a plug in the dash

[@davidpham6019]

Can you go in more detail about the plug? Also what camera did you got?

[@ChopperOutdoors]

Is the camera true or is it in reverse? Meaning when you back up is the display backwords? The one I purchased years ago everything is opposite so its really confusing. (Probably like this question LOL)

[@Tony2Ton]

The camera see the view as you backing up.. like if you turn your head back.. that’s what the camera see

[@ChopperOutdoors]

@@Tony2Ton cool, thanks

[@WilliamPThan]

Hey man, thanks for the video. My back up camera comes with three open lines purple, red and black on both end and a RCA in one end. I connected the black and red to the reverse taillight on one end, on the other end i connect the purple line to the reverse cable of the head unit. When i put gear in reverse, the back up camera does not come up automatically, i have to go to the camera option on the screen to see it. What did i do wrong?

[@jonathangilman1552]

Do you know what car touch screen radios go with this?

[@ksimms82]

Did you have to wire your reverse trigger wire as well. I have mines wired to the reverse light and it still won’t trigger

[@Tony2Ton]

i didn’t use the trigger wire

[@ksimms82]

@@Tony2Ton so you just used power from reverse light ?

[@Tony2Ton]

i used the aux input.. when i need to reverse.. i have to switch my stereo to aux input.

[@Tony2Ton]

i used the wire the have 12v all the time..for power

[@ksimms82]

@@Tony2Ton thanks bro my quick splices didn’t make proper connection. Probably upgrade to tailgate camera just for original look

Okay tony thanks, also you’re hair is pretty sick not gunna lie

Lol!! Thank you

[@jaredporrazzo8555]

What did you hook the purple wire to

[@kennethwise7108]

Great video however I don't have a head unit like yours as its a stock truck. What options do you recommend for a monitor and/or the ability to see what's behind me?

[@Tony2Ton]

i have seen people having the screen on the rear view mirror.. you can look into that option

[@kennethwise7108]

@@Tony2Ton cool, ill consider that option

[@1stchoicechiropracticclini435]

hi Tony, can u send me the link where i can purchase a rear view backup monitor which needed to install in the dash board. thanks

what head unit & camera you running ?

should work on any aftermarket unit and camera is in link in the description

[@timlawz]

Hey buddy, which wire did you joined/tapped the red and black wire to in the stereo?

[@Tony2Ton]

Red wire is for positive battery voltage.. just look for a positive wire in your stereo for red wire. And black wire is your ground.. your negative wire.. you can ground it to the frame of the vehicle if you want or to a ground wire of your stereo

I can’t find any hole behind the left rear seat lol

[@bleckybob]

Are you not supposed to attach the positive voltage to the reverse light so that it’s only on when backing up?

[@mattsivert2594]

Replace them clips while in therr

Id suggest testing before putting everything back together.... 😁
