    No problem, you're welcome.
    when you switch out to the pro, you WILL need a mounting bracket for that. something similar to this...

    none so far, just getting started!
    I was wondering how, when I put it in reverse, it not only shows me a rear camera view, but also a God view from above showing how close I am to sides. I did not put 2 and 2 together to realize there must be other cameras involved. This is kinda cool, like discovering an easter egg that I didn't pay for! Just have to figure out how to use it!

    LOL, thanks guys, at least I now know what the "view" button icon looks like, that should help me find it!

    One thing I did notice with your screen shot, your Taco requires you to push a button to release your fuel cap cover. What year is yours, newer or earlier than 2022? My 2022 TRD Off Road Taco doesn't lock the fuel cap cover, it only has a finger grab point where I simply pull on it to open! I was used to having to open the fuel cap using the same type of interior switch with my older 4Runner, so this is new to me and thought it was the Tacoma way! Now I see that's not necessarily so!

    AJ,

    Do you know when you will have the mount available?

    I have been watching for a couple of months (since I installed my pro grille). I have been driving with the camera ( removed from the factory bracket) wedged between lower half of the O and the T in the grille. Tension and support has kept the camera aimed fairly well, but isn’t 1. Factory appearing, 2. super stable (like if something struck the grille). 3. Protective of the camera itself. 4. Best aimed/aligned for parking.

    Dean,
    The “garnish’ (flat, shiny, plate mimicking the honeycomb pattern) replaces the Toyota logo in concealing/protecting the radar sensor. Located under the T.O.Y.O.T.A lettering in the Pro grille. The sensor can be seen in the last pic (behind grille)

    As others have shown you the view button is not hard to find just look to the left of you steering column. @FreshMexicanTaco has already posted a picture of the button and they’re hundreds of threads about installing the Pro Grill.

    What’s dumb is the squid launcher takes up two spots. And the csc, for the trucks that have it, is still a tall switch.

    I posted a thread on replacing the grille with the Pro grille. Check it out here and yes you’ll need the garnish and camera mount. The places to order those are all on this write up. good luck! It’s well worth it

    That's a RAV4 in my picture. The tacos have the non-locking fuel caps.
