How to Relocate the Backup Camera from your Truck's Tailgate

Whether you're installing your slide-in camper for a leisurely weekend getaway or replacing your entire truck bed with a service body or flatbed, the loss of your truck's backup camera functionality when the tailgate is lowered or completely removed creates a safety hazard for you and those around your vehicle.

A tailgate camera relocation system from Rostra Accessories uses a custom interface harness that plugs directly into the vehicle's factory camera wiring to provide video to the original equipment in-dash monitor with an add-on camera that meets or exceeds FMVSS 111 safety guidelines and DOT durability requirements.

Please choose your truck brand from the list below to begin the the camera relocation selection process:

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

" Just what I needed for my 1962 Thunderbird! Before installing this, I would get leg cramps holding the throttle constant while cruising, I swear the throttle return spring was originally a bed spring. Installed this beauty before taking my trip down RT 66 in 2015. Finally, 7500 miles in comfort!"

Jim H. - United States

250-1223 Universal Electronic Cruise Control
"This is great. It installed pretty easily. I put it on my F-350 so I can park easier since my front camera is obstructed my LED lights and a light bar. I easily installed the sensors in the air dam below the bumper."

Schawn D. - United States

Forward-Facing Parking Sensor System
"This installed very easily. I highly recommend it for anyone who needs this feature to make their car seat more comfortable. But this does require a high level of car handy skills, as you need to significantly disassemble a car seat."

Sam G. - United States

Universal Lumbar Support System
"I installed this in a 2018 RZR RS one. I ride in the winter and have only a windshield. I installed the seat heater and it keeps me very warm."

Ron B. - United States

Universal Seat Heater
"Once installed, the Jeep is more noticeable as one would expect. This is a very good safety upgrade--I was surprised DRL's were not standard on Wranglers. I have had compliments from other Wrangler owners."

Chessie T. - United States

Jeep Wrangler LED Fender DRL
