INSTALLATION(INSTRUCTIONS(
8722 Instructions 2-9-15.doc Page 2 of 6
Step 1: Place Camera Mount in desired position to
confirm fitment. (IMPORTANT: Some states
prohibit items blocking the vehicle license plate;
check local authorities to confirm legal status for
your specific application).
Note: the rear trim of several GM vehicles such as
the Chevy Equinox and Cadillac CTS have slight
depressions (indicated by the arrow below) where
factory installed rear view cameras are mounted.
These positions are ideal camera locations.
Step 2: Peel adhesive backing from supplied
Camera Mount Template and apply to the desired
location making sure that the camera direction is
correct.
Step 3: Use a Center Punch to mark the centers of
the required three holes and drill three pilot holes
using a 1/8” drill bit. NOTE: If your vehicle has a
liftgate panel/trunk trim cover, it must be removed.
Step 4: Drill two 5/16” holes for the camera
mounting bolts and one 7/8” hole for the camera
harness. Use a Deburring Tool or Round File to
smooth edges.
Step 5 (if necessary): Using a 7/8” drill bit, drill an
opening in the trunk or liftgate for the head of the
Camera Harness to pass through. Insert Camera
Harness head through the backside of the hole so
that the gray connector end of the Camera Harness
is inside the trunk or liftgate. (RECOMMENDED:
Protect Camera Harness with a rubber grommet or
by applying a small amount of silicone caulk to the
area that comes into contact with the edges of the
hole. Additional recommendation: If drilling
through sheet metal, apply a Corrosion Inhibitor.)
Step 6: Mount the Camera using the supplied
hardware. Insert the two Rubber Well Nuts into the
outer 5/16” camera mount holes.
Step 7: Thread the two supplied bolts through the
Camera Mount and into the Well Nuts using a
Phillips Screwdriver but do not tighten the Bolts all
the way down just yet.
Step 8: Determine location of vehicle power and
reverse from the chart on Page 6.
NOTE: If self-adhesive Template is missing or
damaged, cut out the image above and affix
with Masking Tape.

Step 9: Route Camera Harness towards the side of
the vehicle that supplies power. It may be
necessary to remove sill plates, pillar covers, seat
bottoms, side panels, etc. In some cases even the
seatbelt bolts at the bottom of the pillars must be
removed.
CAUTION: Any bolts removed for safety devices
must be retightened to manufacturer’s specified
torque specifications). Use a plastic trim
removal tool to avoid damage to trim pieces.
Step 10: Connect Camera Harness to supplied
Chassis Harness.
The optimal location for this junction may occur at
the top of the liftgate or the inner edge of the
trunk. (Note: Most vehicles have existing wires
passing through this area; use this route if at all
possible).
Step 11: Route Chassis Harness forward. It may
be necessary to remove sill plates, pillar covers,
seat bases, side panels, etc. using a Plastic Trim
Removal Tool. In some cases, seatbelt bolts must
be removed. (CAUTION: Any bolts removed for
safety devices must be retightened to
manufacturer’s torque specifications).
Step 12: Secure Camera Harness to existing
vehicle wiring with supplied Wire Ties. This will
minimize chance of binding or otherwise damaging
the harness.
Step 13: Remove vehicle mirror. Unplug the 16-
pin connector from the rear of the vehicle’s mirror,
use a T20 Torx bit to loosen the screw securing the
mirror, and slide the mirror off the windshield
mounting tab.
CAUTION: Removing the mirror can cause
damage to the windshield.
NOTE: Some vehicles have Mirror Mounting
Covers (the 2012 Equinox is shown below).
Refer to our application guide for affected
vehicles. If equipped, remove the cover with a
plastic trim tool. If the vehicle has a center
portion, remove it.
Next, using a Roto Tool remove the striped
area of the center cover as shown below.
The reworked cover is on the right.

Step 14: Attach supplied Mirror to the
windshield using a T20 Torx Driver. This
mirror has a Wedge/ D-tab style mounting base.
Please check our compatibility chart to make sure it
is compatible with your vehicle (adapters are
available for specific applications separately).
CAUTION:Torque for the mirror screw that
attaches to the windshield tab is 1.8 Nm (16
lb-in) and cannot exceed 2.2 Nm (19.5 lb-in).
Step 15: Plug the 16-pin connector of the supplied
Mirror Harness into the supplied Mirror.
Step 16: Route the 6-pin connector end of the
Mirror Harness along with the green, red, and black
wires under the headliner.
Step 17: Route the Mirror Harness down the inside
of the A-pillar trim closest to the ignition and
reverse locations for the vehicle.
Step 18 (if required):Wiring the Mirror
Harness.
NOTE: It may not be necessary for you to use the
Green and Red supplied wires below; most GM
vehicles already have these locations populated. If
wires already exist in these locations, test the leads
using a multimeter for the correct signal).
If the wires do not exist, splice the red and green
wire leads to the wires listed for the vehicle on
Page 6. (Soldering recommended or T-taps as
optional connection method):
Red -Ignition controlled power 12v+ when key is
turned ON and 14.4v or better when vehicle is
running.
Green - Connect to Reverse + power (backup lamp).
Step 19: Attach eyelet of black chassis ground
wire of the supplied Mirror Harness to an existing
body bolt.
Step 20: Connect the 6-pin connector of the
supplied Mirror Harness to the supplied Chassis
Harness.
Tuck any excess harness beneath the headliner
taking care not to bind the wires.
