hello guys welcome back to the channel finally I got a chance to work on the 2022 Highlander I'm going to install a dash cam which is a nice video cam can't wait to install it hopefully everything worked the way it's supposed to but so far it looks good so we're gonna go install it and see how it looks um also a lot of you guys who watch my channel have not subscribed hit the Subscribe button down below hit notification Bell so you don't miss any of my new video without further Ado let's custom it here is the dash cam I think you saw the unboxing already so I'm not going into details on that so without further Ado let's just go and start the process okay guys so to take out the uh this cover you gotta put your hands down here hold it really tight and pop this cover off and then this part just slides down there you go it's really that easy okay guys so we are gonna use this cable that comes with the camera itself so let's just take this little thing out the next thing you want to do is take this plug out there's a little clip right up here just press it and hold up and pull it out just push it to the side use this extra plug that comes into the kit the extra plug goes right up here plug it in and then the plug the gray plug that was in the car this guy you connect it right up here that grip plug from the car flip it around okay and then this will be for the backup camera so now let's try to like hide the cable as much as possible now let's grab the cable for the backup camera so this is the cable for the backup camera it should be pretty it's pretty long so it should be plenty to go to the back all right so let me see all right guys so there's two end the smaller end goes to the front dash the big end goes to the backup camera okay guys so I have to show you guys that again I think I I uh I want to make sure you get it right so the the the cable with the white teeth goes to the backup camera with that long cable and the small cable goes small cable goes to the top one where you get power from this is how I connected it so all we have to do is run this wire to the to the backup connect this guy and then install this so let's install this part right now let me connect this cable first only goes in one way so you can mess it up make sure it's all the way in yeah foreign just trying to find the right spot to put this thing in okay I think it's in yeah I think it's in let's move the cable on the top here so I have room to put the cover okay looks good let's not put the the little protection on here yet now we need to run this cable so to do so there is a little hole here which is perfect we're gonna use to get the cable to go all the way up here and then go to the back all right guys so all we're doing now is just use a little pry tool that come in the kit just trying to push just trying to pull this a little down and push the cable behind it [Music] [Music] all right now we just pull this off guys it should come off fairly easy and just run the cable underneath it should be easy okay now let's put the where the stripping back good push this to the back here okay guys keep pushing the cable through push it on the side here get a little slack make sure this goes all the way down here and then push the weather stripping back in here [Music] nice run the cable all the way here to the back now let's go to the back okay guys now let's pull the weather stripping out on this side okay and then run the cable also same way foreign [Music] the rest of the cable back here run it through here all right guys let's go to the trunk now [Music] all right guys let's keep running the cable to push it to the back foreign [Music] take this rubber stripping off a little all right okay let's run the cable here [Music] okay so what I'm planning on doing guys is Rhonda this wire right here into this to make it look super nice so first we're gonna do let's pop this guy off okay here we go all right guys we're gonna run the cable here instead because this is easier to take off here we go see that's a lot easier to run the cable through here so let's run [Music] okay guys so I got the cable through here now we have to fish it through this rubber so it can come out this way foreign [Music] okay for through okay okay now we can put the rubber the rubber back to where it belongs then now we fish this on top of here okay now we can put this guy back here all right all right guys so cable is here let's put the Weber with a seal back in place alrighty looks good all right guys I need to close the the trunk real quick so I can see hold on okay guys so I found how I'm gonna mount it so I was trying to put the camera this way but when I put it this way what happened it's angling down too much and I cannot fix it so we figured out we're gonna put it on this plastic here now I have a little bit of room to angle it a little touch mode which is all that I need so come with the little 3M connection I'm going to use a 3M and also I'm going to use the tape just to make sure it stays put so let's go I'm gonna try to position the camera it has a 3M tape so let me know if it's straight this way this this way like that it's not sticking it's probably because it's too cold okay all right I think I got what I need please stay it's the cold I know what I'm gonna do [Music] okay I'm trying to like drill us I don't have any bits there at home okay guys so the perfect line is this guy right here because it lines up really I already checked right here lines up perfectly fine like that okay let's clean this as well a little rubbing alcohol right up here make sure it sticks properly right okay guys sorry I didn't show you so I line this bracket up this bracket up with the the right here with the windshield washer which is right up here I had my cousin helping me to line it up so it goes all the way right down the middle of this so I didn't use the 3M tape because it's too cold so I put two tiny small screw that comes in the package right here you could see them so now all I have to do is put the camera and then run the wires so here's the camera guys the camera is gonna go like this put it in two super tiny screws that comes with it the each of them hold oh good so you need a small screwdriver each of them hold the camera in place another one on this side foreign good all right Let's Fold this cable right here [Music] oh okay cut the zip tie we can put this cable here there's plenty of room right here I'm gonna I'm gonna zip tie it right here too so it doesn't move [Music] now this cover here guys you go over here so I'm gonna make a small hole right here so this can sit right in here this little spot right there give me a sec I'm gonna make a super tiny small hole [Music] all right hold on I gotta take this out guys because I want to put the cable behind this thing all right pull the cable over here so it can really sit flush in here connect it [Music] I'm gonna zip tie this guy here as well good I think this cover should should go in a lot easier now I need a little more I'm just cutting a little groove right here guys so I can make sure the cable doesn't get pinched let's try it now thank you all right guys there you go nice right look at that you don't even know this was aftermarket beautiful guys let's go and check out the front and finish up the front okay guys everything is already connected so all we have to do is literally add this little guy right here so it goes from the top make sure all the cables are tucked in really nicely now we can put this guy back okay there we go now it's in now let's put the little cover again [Music] clip in oh that's a wrong one one second guys okay this guy let's try that again all right finally because I had the wrong one in now we can angle the mirror here you go guys so let's uh I need to download the app for this guy let me uh looks really good let me show you what it looks like in the front to go you almost don't know what's already there guys let me take out the little cover for it okay A little cover is out let me grab my phone and try to download the app and then I'll show you what it looks like guys all right guys don't forget you gotta take these little Clips off to put it on the new one okay here you go just should be able to pop him off all right so let's go put him on the new one all right guys I forgot to put the little Clips on make sure you put them on there we go okay guys actually you put the little Clips on okay now we can reconnect we're gonna reconnect this there we go reconnect this again it should be easier there we go so much better now let's put the cover back hold on foreign there we go done guys there we go we'll have to re-angle the Mirror and we'll fix that later okay guys oh good all right guys I wanted to give you a quick look at how the camera looked during the daytime I think it looks fairly well pretty clear you can see everything pretty well you can see the plates the signs I think it looks really good what do you guys think so guys this is the back camera sorry it's angling a little down my bad I think I made a mistake when I was adjusting it but I think you can read the plate well I think it's clear enough um I think it looks pretty good so far what do you guys think so guys this is the front camera at night I think it looks really good there's no glare from the light the stop sign are pretty visible the houses I think the place also are pretty visible so I think it looks really good so this spot is the back camera at night time I think it still look good too I mean guys you can see enough the road looks clear enough and once I angle the camera properly you'll be able to see well so my fault on that one but overall it does look good so yeah guys that's it that's all for this video thank you for watching alright guys so the feed cam is installed and I'll show you some video how it looks at night and some of the footage also that I took so it's all done so there is some issue with the camera for some reason I cannot download the app in the USA not sure why but it's done so so thank you for watching until the next time like And subscribe peace
