This thread was about a bed camera, not a rear view mirror camera.

 

So, is the bed camera plug and play?

Ummm perhaps you should read the contents of the thread instead of posting useless comments....

 

this thread is about the things needed to get the cam working, which.....wait for it.....involves a rear view mirror swap, as well as some extra cable, not just the rear camera!

I don’t think either of you read what I’ve typed. Here is what you need: Spoiler assembly with camera (black) 84515287 Mirror 13532977 Coax cable 84335461 You do NOT need to buy the PN I ACCIDENTA

K it works. Zero programming needed plug and play. When I have time to compile everything I’ll do a whole write up. Get your parts on order.

Mirror came in, waiting on the camera, should be here Monday. Powers up perfect with the plug that’s glued inside the headliner. I’ll post a full install with PN needed next week.

Ok so i just completed the install. Started on my lunch break but did not have the coax cable since it was out for delivery by amazon. Finished everything in the dark. I would say the hardest part is getting the dang headliner back on. That was the biggest pain in the ass!!! Second pain in the ass was getting the dome light screws back in!!!! And 3rd was getting the rear seatbelt caps back on after the headliner was installed!!!!

 

i also did NOT have any extra plug glued to the headliner for some reason, Anyone know why? I thought all cars come with it...?

 

i was able to use the original plug I had in my auto dim mirror prior and the camera works.... any thoughts on this?

 

i also used clear RV silicon on the inside nuts when screwing them back in as recommended by someone here.

Also, would love to know what the model number of the GEN 1 and GEN 2 mirros are if anyone has that. Assume the Gen 2 is the one that ends on 995, but how about Gen 1? Just want to know if mine is an old mirror or what since its a different part number

Offroadman, if you had the autodim already installed and working you had the "extra plug" that others talk about.

A lot of the trucks have the standard flip mirror, the ole manual style mirror.  For those instances the wire is tucked up in the headliner, glued to the headliner.

You are good.

I just want to check about possible parts. I want to put this setup in a different vehicle so the high mount light is not necessary.  Is there a part number for just the camera?

84486910 is the camera part number

and if you need a mirror, there are some very very nice video DRZ mirrors on ebay right now (i may be the seller).

Not sure on specific part numbers but all Gen 2s will have 3 soft buttons at bottom right of mirror.

Just ordered parts for this.  I lucked out and found a take-off light assembly on Ebay with harness for $144.  So that left the coax cable for $32 and mirror for $644 (on my dealer account).  I was planning to drop the headliner and seal my slider anyways, so this is the perfect excuse to upgrade the mirro.  I am glad I ran across this thread!

There is also a CHSML with TWO cameras.

 

One looks in the cargo box -  displays on the dash screen.

One looks to the rear - for the camera rear view mirror.

 

 

Do you have a part number for this CHSML? I will need this as I already have the cargo bed camera.

Glad I was able to help!

Just remember take your time, keep track of the screws, don't forget some sealant/caulk for the bolts for the spoiler....

the mirror will come with the mount in a different place than expected, you may just have to move it to a better location for the power wire to reach...

Also allocate about 2 hours or so.... does not take long, just tedious work...

One of the best adds yet....  People who see it are amazed, one said, wish I had that in my Ford....  🙂

This weekend, installed the upfitter aux power switch bank... that was much more difficult than the camera/mirror...

let us know how it turns out.  Also any questions let us know...

Do you know what is different when I already have a cargo bed camera? Is there a brake light with 2 camera housings?

Yes, 1 for the bed and one for the rear view mirror.

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.

      "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
