PRE-INSTALLATION VEHICLE CHECKLIST

Before beginning, determine how the vehicle is equipped and check appropriate boxes:

Determine whether the vehicle has an opening in the center of pickup bed close to opposite of the opening in the

bottom of the tailgate.

□ Yes, skip Section 2.

□ No, tailgate must be removed to drill an opening for the camera harness (refer to Section 2).

Determine whether the vehicle has the required three mounting holes behind the existing tailgate emblem. Refer to

Steps 1 & 2 to remove inner tailgate panel, and use supplied 1008-9100-03 template to confirm whether the required

holes are present in the panel.

□ No, use supplied 1008-9100-03 template to position the holes to drill and/or cut the tailgate. If you do not wish

to cut the tailgate, Brandmotion offers tailgate handle camera kits (1008-6501, black handle, and 1008-6502,

chrome handle) that do not require cutting.

□ Yes, proceed to Section 3.
