"...As noted above, the bullet connectors are too large for the drain holes, and clipping them off and installing new ones, or soldering the wires is..." Read more

I am slightly OCD so it took me about an hour and a half, however I could see it taking a regular person less than a half hour. You undo the tailgate bolts, pull the cover off, install the device, then run cables. I ran my cables through the camera wiring harness hole in the tailgate then body of the truck and then wire tied it to that harness until I got underneath the passenger seat. If you are under the truck looking at the passenger side frame rail on the side of the frame rail towards the outside of the rail you will see a gromit with nothing in it. I pulled it off and put a hole in it and ran my cable through that, then ran it up to where the wiring harness that goes to the passenger side door is and used the blue with red stripe and blue with black stripe wires. I had the wrong polarity after tapping it so I swapped the pins in the back.
Works like a champ however it is loud. I think thats reassuring though, so I don't care.
