07 Sierra With 09 Style Backup Camera


Recommended Posts

Posted

First off I'd like to thank BlackGold....as you remember a couple of weeks ago there was a post about using the 09 Silverado/Sierra Tailgate Bezel to mount a Boyo VTK Backup Camera....anyway after taking a look at his pictures, I decided I'd give this a try myself....my first backup camera wasn't all that great in terms of quality, and I'm always looking for a factory look if I can make it happen.....

 

Anyway I got mine finished up and installed today...so here are the pictures. I sanded and painted mine white to match the truck....the bezel comes Black and Textured from the factory.

No you can still not see the Bumper or the Trailer Hitch for that matter....this camera is only 120 Degrees which I guess doesn't even come close to the factory camera because they mount pretty close to the same however you can see the Bumper/Hitch with the GM Camera....

Looks great, Travis!!! :lol:

 

Now, let's talk about those badges on the tailgate. :lol:

 

Well If I take any badges off it would be that damn Flex Fuel One....the Black/Yellow Paint on the Badge just keeps flaking off....

Thanks :lol: The truck was not ordered with Factory Nav...but the Factory Nav was sitting on the Desk waiting for the truck to come in....I wasn't crazy about spending the $2250 that it costs out of the factory....so I opted for a Takeout, Had It Programmed and have about only $900 bucks in everything...

That looks sweet. I've got a jacked up rig, and wish I had the backup camera like on the Tahoe Denali. So if I have the factory Nav (which I do), is there a quick link in the rear of the vehicle to hook this up? Could I purchase the factory camera and hook it up? If not, how much should I look to spend on a decent aftermarket cam?

 

Thanks,

Nick

Nick,

 

I did all of this for about $200....The bezel for the Tailgate Handle was like $23 bucks....probably spent $30 in Paint/Supplies....Camera and Cables were about $100...the Dealer Programing was $50...

 

Basically you will need to buy the Back Up Camera harness...that has an RCA hookup for the Rear Camera....then run that RCA to the Rear of the Truck and make your connection to the Camera....then simply hookup your power and ground to the camera....

    • Yes it can be a challenge for obvious reasons. Remember when people were blocked on websites during the last administration if you didn’t agree. Being retired I can scan all the sites and podcasts. I start in the morning with Glen beck during my walk. Then I watch Orielly that I recorded the night before. I scan the headlines on Newsmax, and News Nation. News Nation has Como so it’s diverse. Weekly him and Orielly have debates sometimes Steven A is along for the ride. My nightcap is Jesse Watters for comic relief. Then it’s the Astros, that’s been disappointing. Sometimes Greg Kelly if the Astros are getting blown out. 
    • I believe the only thing that can be monitored is negative electrical current returning through the frame instead of the ground wire. It's just a guess, but that's how your home gfi breakers work and my theory is that is what's going on. I will be watching for what you figure out.
    • Glad it worked for you. I tried that 1st, about 2 years ago. Didn't help. I also tried doing a hard reset (disconnecting battery for minimum of 30 minutes). Worked a couple times, but after one summer of doing it over and over, that no longer worked.  I was fairly confident it was either the compressor or a failed actuator, but I just couldn't identify which one. Had to research which actuators do what and which last numbers are associated with each.
    • Took me FIFTEEN MINUTES to find this. Isn't that a problem? On the mainstream media I can INSTANTLY find 100 articles bashing President Trump ... but when it comes to TRUTH in American corporate news & search engines, it's carefully filtered to support ONE SIDE. A Republic cannot survive like this! Incredible! Even all the AI searchers out there failed as well! ChatGPT said it needed more details on the video that I provided a DIRECT LINK to! I thought AI was the be-all, end-all?? I had to dig it up myself. This should be FRONT PAGE NEWS!!! 🤬   Here's the statement directly from our President:     Glenn Beck's reporting on the operation:   https://glennbeck.com/watch/videos/trump-just-revealed-a-massive-military-secret-that-lowered-gas-prices   In case that link doesn't work, here's the YouTube link:     And another 15 minutes to find this clip out of Glenn Beck's video - the first few seconds is all the corporate media will allow the public to see, since the low IQ people will think Trump said " I love inflation ", and that was the end of it. Taken WAY out of context! Here's that part, plus the 2nd part about the oil smuggling operation:  
    • More is cylinder deactivation. Kia-Hyundai Ive had 4. The warranty is the same 10 years 100K miles. My grandson drives the first one 05 Elantra GT. My wife drives the second one 2011 Genesis. The Genesis still performs as new and looks great. The Elantra looks rough. He’s not kind to it. The third was a Genesis coup. The fourth was a Santa Fe. Those were my daily drivers. I don’t keep them long. Kia is the same as Hyundai with the same warranty. I looked at the K-4 today. Too small, otherwise pretty good buy. Most of Hyundai and Kia’s have a performance upgrade.
