Hey there. Lets see, what i can recall from memory...it's been a while...
1) You have to remove the internal panel cover from the tail gate.
2) Once removed, i think there was 2 screws holding the small body panel part that is attached to the gate (the part that i mounted the camera too). I had to put a notch that piece too so i could snake the camera's cables though it (and so that the part will be flush with the car again once i reinstall it.
3) Mount the camera onto that part you removed.
4) reinstall the that body panel part but be sure to put the wires though first.
5) run the power & video cables from the back to the front of the car. I found that running the cables though the grommet tube that connects the tailgate to the body of the car was a PITA. I had to attach the power/video cables to a piece of thin metal (like a metal clothes hanger for example) to snake it though the grommet. From there i ran the cable along the drive side inside the vehicle where the carpet meets the plastic side panel. Tucking the cable in there can get a little painful. From there i went up into the dashboard, snaked it though until i got to the radio head unit area.
6) From there i connected the camera's power to the car's 12v Ignition Switch power source and NOT the car's constant Battery Power +12v source. This way the camera only turns on when the car is on.
7) Connect the video cable to the reverse camera hookup on your aftermarket radio.
8) make sure you have the "reverse" wire connected on your aftermarket radio. This tells the radio when you put the car in reverse and it knows to switch on the video feed to the backup camera.
PHEW hope that helps!
