    Hello all, my 2014 tacoma access cab backup camera is a good foot off. I opened the back end and tried to adjust it, but there was not enough play to adjust anything.

    I went ahead and installed my pop n lock and the same deal remains. its not even close. It seems like its off side to size and it is zoomed incorrectly.

    I guess I could put my OEM handle back on and take it in, but i have read that dealers call this normal.

    Any comments?

    thanks

    I think the back up cameras are just to make sure that there is nothing directly behind you (a little kid). Otherwise I still make use of my neck (and mirrors) and turn my head and look.:D

    The lines have a purpose. The manual it explains the lines. If you lines are not set up the way the manual states take it to the dealer.
