That is what I'm thinking. I just don't know how to go about doing it.
Did you use the backup sensors also?

No backup sensors just have the camera and the trigger to the backup lights. I ran the cable assembly through the driver side tailgate hinge. I found the camera complete with all the wiring on eBay. I used masking tape on the tailgate to mark the cutouts.

Do you have a link to the tailgate camera you used? I'm seeing a few styles on Amazon.

Oh, got it. I though you had one of the ones in the handle.

No that would be alot of work and fabrication. This one took about 2 hours with a drill and a Dremel

This is my plan also. I just didn't know how to do it. Did you use the backup sensors also?

Yes, I have a 02 xlt 3.0 mounted it between the bumper and tailgate, snug fit so I can use it for general backup view and hooking up my trailer, I can usually set the tungue right over the ball.. Routed the wiring along the left frame to just over the trany. Came in under the ddrink holder and up behind the dash stereo to the dashcam, works great. Recommend getting a tag mounted one.
