TACO GARAGE - Any camera - anytime, plug and play, steering wheel controlled. 2020!

How is your camera power wired? I used the "A" trigger wire from the head unit (as provided on the CS harness) and connected it to the "B" trigger wire connection on the male RCA connector. I routed the Red and Black wire pair into the truck cab and taped the ends.
Depending how your camera is powered, you could try powering it by the alternate method. The problem is that if there's an issue between the junction point where the Red and Black wires tie into the main cable and the 4-pin tubular connector, I don't know of any good way to check that out.

 

Mine is running the same way you have yours ran. I think ill just try and spend the $20 and see if the new wiring solves the issue.

 

If you can get a new Natika wiring harness, I would pull your HU out and connect the new harness and run the cable out through the window to your camera. That way you can be sure the cable failed before you go to the trouble of routing the new one through the firewall.

 

Will the camera work with the 2020 jbl premium sound radio system?

 

any update ?

my promo code TW10 can be applied ?
order # 5401

 

@FreshMexicanTaco
Any idea when the camera mounts for the 2020 OR grill will be available?
on a second note, never receive my code for the $25 store credit for the pre-order.
I want to use the credit for the grill camera mount.
ORDER #5218
Thanks

 

@FreshMexicanTaco
Same questions from me! still havent gotten a credit or any other info. Order #5138

 

ordered 5485

 

I believe we are all on the same boat regarding the store credit. I've been waiting patiently for it.

 

Hey I have the grill with the full garnish piece from factory. can I mount my camera like this or will effect the equipment behind the garnish? I have the natika camera like the one above. I dont want to drill and find out im throwing a code

 

Hi,
Yes, you can. Take a look at post #685, #687

Hey thanks looks like my best option.

 

Thanks for a great thread and the coupon that covers CA tax, just plunked down my order, seems like a good product.

So, say you normally pull into your driveway and park as close as you can to your rollup garage door, it's a quick double-click of Mode to get the front camera on? Then when backing out same as stock till you shift out of reverse, then you get auto front cam for 30s / 30mph and a single Mode click bounces out of that? I'm guessing this becomes intuitive rather quickly? Interesting thing is, when parking, seems like you'd more frequently want the front cam auto on for entry rather than exit. But I suppose that capability would get very annoying in heavy traffic. For us MT's, if we had a wire to indicate 1st gear engaged, that might be the ticket to never have to press any buttons...

 

Where would the camera mount go on a 2020 TRD Sport 4x4? I would love it as high as possible but I doubt the camera would fit above the Toyota logo. Since I have a NATIKA camera, which is made for a rear camera, I would imagine it has to go in upside down, no? If so then UNDER the logo would be perfect. Otherwise, I'm not really 100% sure where else it could go.

 

Yes, yes, 30s / 12mph, yes.

 

I have the Natika camera on the front above the center of the grille. Although the problem is that I have an aftermarket grille. Works just fine.

 

I can't mount mine above the logo. It wouldn't fit. Ideally it makes sense to put it under the logo but I am not sure if it will display upside down or not. I wouldn't think since the backup cameras are installed upside down. Plus under the logo is dead center but would rather have it a little higher....

 

If the camera has three wire loops somewhere, those can be cut to change orientation of the camera. Depending on which model you have of course. When I head out I'll take some pictures for you of how mine looks.

 

Perfect, thanks. I just found another thread where someone did mount theirs under the logo but they did not have the NATIKA one (they had a bullet type). I do not even have the Germes Lab camera system yet though, just the camera itself. I'm not even going to bother mounting it until I have the Germes Lab system. Just trying to put the process/location in place so when I start I have a successful plan in place.
