How to Make Backup Camera Stay on the Tundra

Take advantage of the rear license plate mounts.

Take a close look at the camera and identify the bolt holes. Cameras specifically geared for vehicle backup or reversing applications are designed to take advantage of the rear license plate mounts. If your camera has been glued to the back of your Toyota Tundra, it will eventually fall off. There's a reason why wheels aren't glued to the axle---glue fails if it isn't applied properly; is susceptible to temperature fluctuation, dirt and vibration. Do the job properly and make the camera stay on the Tundra, bolt the camera on.

Things You'll Need

• Adjustable wrench

Instructions

1. Loosen the rear license plate bolts. Remove the license plate and license plate frame.

2. Insert the license plate bolts through the holes on the camera. You will be using the license plate fasteners to mount the camera.

3. Align the license plate to the license plate bolt holes with the camera in position.

4. Bolt the assembly to the vehicle using the existing bolt holes and associated receivers in the vehicle body.

Tips & Warnings

• Discard the license plate frame if the bolts aren't long enough to pass through the camera mounting, license plate frame and license plate into the body of the vehicle.
