How do you mount a reverse camera in the key hole. I am thinking about installing mine in the rear glass release button of my Yukon. Any ideas or suggestions? -Scott ------------- 2002 GMC Yukon SLT non-Bose

If you buy a universal one on ebay it comes with everything you need. I did it in my car and it only took like 15 minutes to do. You just take out the old lock, put in the camera and screw on the mounting rings. it has a video wire, power and gound wires. pretty basic stuff.

I did get one of the universal ones on eBay. How do you remove the old lock? How do you run the wires to the lift gate? Thanks. -Scott ------------- 2002 GMC Yukon SLT non-Bose

Im sorry, I was under the impresion you didnt have the mounting hardware. To run the wire you need to follow the factory wires that are running into the lift gate. There must be a boot there being that the glass release is in there unless its a mechanical release. If its mechanical you are gonna need to run the wires out of the top of the trim panel on the door and then bring it across to the headliner. Take your time to do this or it will look like trash.
