Please Read Carefully-
Some vehicles may require rear camera relocation depending on the factory spare-tire setup and vehicle configuration. In most cases, the process involves removing the factory rear camera from the OEM spare-tire mount, routing the wiring through the rear gate, and securing the camera in the designated GLO-shield housing before verifying proper alignment and functionality.
For customers who plan to remove the tire cover system frequently, we strongly recommend using a separate compatible rear camera rather than repeatedly disconnecting and relocating the factory camera. This helps simplify installation, makes future removal easier, and reduces unnecessary handling of the OEM camera and wiring. Wire-harness and separate OEM camera purchase links included on this page.
The tutorials provided below are intended as general installation guidance only, and requirements may vary by vehicle, trim level, wiring configuration, and aftermarket modifications. Professional installation is recommended, and any additional cameras, extension wiring, adapters, or vehicle-specific components must be purchased separately when required. Wire Harness may vary on different vehicle models. Please make sure you find YOUR specific vehicle configuration and wire-harness.
