    Has anyone installed a parking sensor switch?
    My 2nd gen tacoma doesn’t have one and whenever I reverse with the camper on the steady and loud beep can get annoying.

    Never heard of such a thing.

    If you don`t like the back up alarm remove it.

    Your going to need a lot more than just the switch to make that work. Not saying it can't be done. But it might be easier just to buy a new vehicle.
