Routing the Monitor Wire Into Cab of Toyota Tundra for Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera
Question:
I am looking at the Hopkins 50002 Smart Hitch Camera System and i just looked at the videos. I was wondering if you have a video showing the install on a Toyota Tundra? Where is the best place to bring the wire into the cab? Thanks for your help.

Expert Reply:
We have not had the chance to install the Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera # HM50002 on a Toyota Tundra, so unfortunately we do not have an installation video.
I recommend checking for an existing grommet in the firewall of the cab, likely behind the pedals on the floorboard. Using an existing hole in the firewall will help save time on installation. I have attached an installation video showing the wire being ran through an existing grommet.
If you cannot find a manufacturer's grommet to use, you can drill a small hole through the firewall. To cover the edges of the hole, you can use a Snap Bushing Grommet, like # SWC8055.
