Finally got to this -- added 3 cameras today, patched through the Entune display through a bank of relays. Here's the electrical schematic, I started with. There were a few minor alterations along the way... There are two switches added. One is the on/off which trips a relay to power the...

I like my DiamondBack HD. It's secure and can bear a huge load up on top. Plus, it looks mean as hell. I guess it all comes down to what you want out of it.

Long day today working through the rains to get this new sealed auxiliary fuse/relay box wired and installed and all the current add-ons rewired. Lots of extra capacity pre-wired...

Finally tackled something I have wanted to do for a while -- tie the dome light and map lights together so the map lights come on with the dome light when opening doors or turning the dome light to "on", but still work independently as well. It was a bit frustrating trying to unpin the OEM...

The Toyota rack base doesn't have a channel that you can really mount other brackets or crossbars to, and it also isn't a very rigid rack compared to something like Yakima or Thule rated to carry a max total load "evenly distributed" of just 100 lbs. I have one and am considering moving to...

Working on the badges between rain showers...

Touched up the KC emblems from white to red.

So getting the Entunes to show the camera input whenever you want turns out to be easy, and I've seen done that. I still have to figure out where to tap into the camera leads with a switcher where I tie in all the camera feeds. After I get back from my trip, I will work all that out.

What they ^^^^^ said. Go at it from behind, it snaps right out making it very easy to spray.

Plasti-dipped my emblem

Got it done, but I think I want to swap the SPDT switch to a lighted SPST that drives a relay to make the connections...

Started the backup camera anytime mod last night, but got delayed by rain. This is the first stage of adding additional cameras (front and a couple under the carriage). Can't say I like the way the Toyota switch blanks are designed as the only SPDT (on-on) switch I could find resulted in me...

Out on a photo outing -- and a bit of 4-wheeling...

I got the Coverking neoprene. Nice covers, durable, waterproof, and fit well -- except that I got a defective driver's side back seat cover and am still working with the company to get that replaced. I expect that to get worked out, but it's not going as fast as I'd like. It was just under 4...

Hard to find a break in the rain... just cruising around the Jemez Mountain back roads.

Still going back and forth with the company on the screwed up cover. Starting to get a bit perturbed. Stay tuned...

Consider this for what it is worth from a new purchaser of a 2015. The body is changing somewhat, so gen II parts probably won't fit, meaning it will be a while before vendors decide to tool up to support it. It will be the first run of a new model, so probably a few new issues will crop up...

I like! Thanks!

Yeah, I saw their page. A little more than I want, but I might email then with the idea and see what they say. Might be worth it to them to explore the options.

I've been looking on Totyota's web, but I don't see that any Toyotas come with this type of option, so I probably have to tie in to a signal line to make the Entune head think that the transmission is in reverse so it displays the camera input, and then tie a selector switch in for whatever...
