    I made this thread to help some of you guys on how to find the reverse trigger wire on a 2010 Tacoma. Its should also be the same location for 05-15's but not sure. I retro fitted a 2013 touch screen into my 2010. I attached a You Tube video I made showing the location of the reverse trigger wire that is needed to send the signal to the head unit to switch the display to show the back up camera. I also installed the Camera Source wiring kit which moves the back up camera display from the rear view mirror to the head unit. Hope this helps someone out.
