TRD Pro Front Camera mounting

A while back I purchased the FRAC Harness for the front camera. Finding a good spot to mount the camera was a pain as I didn't want to cut into the grill.

Any how... had a sub par mount for a while, then found this bracket. It's a perfect fit, not cutting or drilling. By far the best solution for mounting a camera with the TRD Pro grill.

Have you mounted it up yet? Any install pics?

 

Yep. Interested - thx. Send pics!

 

Just got it… I’ll mount it up tomorrow. Here’s the placement. It’s a perfect fit

 

Curious how it mounts I just swapped to this grill and need to find a home for the front camera. Ordered this bracket and another to test fit.

 

Comes with a washer that holds it in place

 

Thats gonna look clean. Nice find!

 

Curious as to what camera you have. And how is the quality of the camera?

 

My mount should be here today we'll see how it goes.

 

Thanks, I ordered the one for the '14-'17 gen heritage grille. I'm curious to see how well the camera angle is.

 

Just a heads-up. If you use this camera, which seems to be the most common used for the front, it won't work with the yota leds bracket without modification. The threaded shaft of the camera is not long enough to go through the bracket, then grille and then the washer. Also, if you don't use a spacer, the camera is not far enough away from the grille. I had a member make me a 3D printed spacer. I had to drill 2 holes in the bracket and the washer and used longer bolts to make it work. I mounted the camera to the bracket with the included nut. Hope this makes sense.

And this relates to the TRD Pro grille. Mine is a 2019.

 

I just got mine in and yeah wont work 2020 pro

 

Same I mounted it somewhere else for now.

 

I don't get mine until tomorrow. You guys are getting me worried.

 

Well I guess I’m out then!

 

It will work. Just need a spacer. I can send the specs for a 3D spacer if you have a printer or know someone who does.

 

Can you send me the spacer I can have my buddy make it. Do you have pictures of yours mounted up?

 

How do you have that mounted on the back?

 

Looking for the file on the spacer. It was given to me by another member on here.

 

Im good with that haha. If you have the file for the spacer that would be awesome.

 

I am trying to find it. I ended up having the member make me one. I have sent him a DM.

This is the thread that has the file for the 3D printed spacer.

 

Thanks I will send it to my buddy to print me one.

 

Be sure to have it printed in PETG or similar material to withstand the elements.

If you have the regular (non-PRO) honeycomb grill, the YotaLED plate for those grills will work just fine. The spacing on the honeycombs are taller and there's enough room for the camera. On the PRO grill, the honeycombs are shorter/wider, and that's what causes the issue. But the shim gets it pushed out and angled forward a little more and gives good coverage. I've been running it now for over a year and I use the hell out of the front camera.

 

For those who don't have access to a 3d printer. Does anyone sell these shims?

 

Bump

 

I got my buddy to print me the spacer. I had to drill the mount out because I guess they changed the hole size from the one that Rainman designed his for. I just got my bolts in and will probably try and get it mounted this weekend.

 

I don't know anyone that has a 3D printer.
