Ahhh... I just installed one on my dad's f350 and I really wasn't impressed on the final fit. Thank you so much for the tip! Gonna redo the handle install ASAP!
Excellent, glad this helps! For an even better fit, remove the rods from the handle mechanism before you final bolt your handle in place. Once your handle is in place, then reattach the rods. Make sense?
For the benefit of anyone wanting to do this kind of project, there is no need to connect the backup light at the tail light, this vintage truck has a wire behind the driver side kick panel, gray connector; probe each wire with a test light while going into reverse, it'll provide 12v every time you go into reverse. I simply ran a wire from there to the radio input., and coiled/taped the camera wires on each end (didn't use them). The 12v is an input to the radio to tell it to activate the rear camera screen. The actual 12v for the camera I connected to the same 12v used to power the radio since it runs along the camera wires, the ground I connected on the rear chassis on a factory ground point. Great video, thanks!
@@santiagodavila1426 unfortunately no. The truck but the dust soon after this video was released. However, I DO plan on putting one on the truck I'm about to buy.
To be honest, the ISSYAUTO unit is holding up nicely after I made the adjustments. Very sturdy. If you're willing to make the few adjustments, it is a good unit.
@@DrivingIntelligence great thanks. I removed the rear console and did the extra captains chair mod so I could fit my third kid in there. Turning out pretty nicely. I like the truck.
I only made the modifications I showed in the video. But I removed the door linkages from the handle mechanism before I tightened everything up. Then reattached. In the video, I am referring to the rods that go to each side of the tailgate and held onto the center mechanism my green clips. You might want to release those rods, loosen and retighten your handle and then reattach the rods. Could also be the stud holes need to be opened for further adjustment. Make sense?

excellent addition, thank you
Very nice work. I plan on putting one on my 02 sometime in the near future.
I really love the install... nice feature. Do you have a head unit that accepts the RCA?
@@DrivingIntelligence Not yet, but that will change soon. I'll be doing a video on that when I do it.
@@theezeelife292 dos you get it done ?
@@santiagodavila1426 unfortunately no. The truck but the dust soon after this video was released. However, I DO plan on putting one on the truck I'm about to buy.
@@theezeelife292 is it a same Ford.?
Hi good vide0 Where you able to adjust your field if vision with the camera
there is very little adjustment, just orientation and angle of the parking lines, but not the size.
So, is there one you DO recommend for a 02' F250??

What mirror is that?
Bought that mirror while I was in China on business. Unfortunately, not available in USA.
I’ve got a 02 Harley Davidson. Low mileage. What camera and parts work for it?
All the parts that can be used are listed in the description of this video. Same parts I used on mine.
@@DrivingIntelligence great thanks. I removed the rear console and did the extra captains chair mod so I could fit my third kid in there. Turning out pretty nicely. I like the truck.
@@Somefatdude I'd love to see photos of that center seat install. Very nice! Let me know how the rear camera install goes...
@@Somefatdude by the way, how did you do the center seatbelt?
@@DrivingIntelligence had to go lap belt. Didn’t want to cut the truck up to do 3 point
Did you have to grind anything down besides the lock hole?
On mine the side where the camera is doesn’t sit flush

Thanks for the reply I tried that many times still didn’t work, seems like it’s too thick on one side
Sorry about that. Could be a low build quality unit.
