Front view camera

Looking to install a front view camera for tire placement when off roading. Has anyone done this? I'd be nice to flip on a switch and get the camera on in the existing rear view camera screen. Any advice on how to install it or links to tutorials on how to accomplish this?

OP, generally, the more you wheel in rough terrain, the better you'll see what's ahead of you.
I personally don't look or hang my head out the DS window, I just read the trail through the windshield and move forward.
And it seems to me that a forward facing, center mounted, wide angle camera, doesn't have good depth perception.
Unless you mount a camera in front of each front tire.

 

Have you used this on a trail?

Countless times.

That's why even my 2021 have a front camera. I'm very used / spoiled for the front camera.

 

My 2022 TRD PRO came with surround cameras. I lost them when my shop installed a Rig'd Camera Relocation Kit. My shop tried endlessly to fix it. Rig'd has no solution. They said I could send it back for a refund. I asked who was gonna pay the shop. For uninstalling it, they wouldn't... Still have no cameras or solution.

Rig'd does have a note on their website, now. Not a happy camper.

 

That is sad.

I wasn't confident with all the new electronics in 2021 and why I got this Amazon Wireless backup camera as my front camera.

 

Do you have a picture of what you can see on the monitor while on a trail?

 

Don't have a pic on a technical trail but found this from my Google photos, this is just a gravel road at night.

 

thank you for sharing!

 

I would like a front camera too, but right now for parking in spots so I don't bump the handicap sign or pole when driving my mother. Usually I prefer to back in, but sometimes, due to people competing for spots or room for her to open the door easily,, it is safer to just pull in.

 

Do you have a picture of the monitor mounted inside your 2021 so we can see how it looks in the interior?

 

I have it in front of the shifter on my 21. Not the best placement compared to my 2018 using the headunit. But better than nothing.

 

Thank you. It looks like you have your accessories well organized.

 

Thank you @IVRunner . I have remove those front 2 charging cables to center console using a 12v circular port extension thing that is been to charge the phones, head torch, jump start battery. So no wire mess in front of 4wd selector.
