Works like it should: I’m glad that I installed it. I would recommend this product. Much better than the license plate bracket back up cameras. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect fit and somewhat easy to install. *by L***Z on Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2020* I was very impressed with the overall quality of this setup. I replaced my license plate camera that I bought on Amazon a year ago. The lens fogged up making it impossible to see. Plus it wasn't a very good angle for hooking up my trailer. The angle on this one is perfect! There was plenty of cord to run it all the way to my console on my 07 quadcab.However, it does not come with a wire to activate the camera. You have to splice the "power" cable into your reverse lights or trailer connection. This cable is only about six feet long. My stereo deck requires a wire to attach to the reverse lights to tell the reverse monitor when to turn on. Luckily I was able to use the wire from my previous install. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Almost a great product - will see how the durability holds up. *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2019* This product was successfully installed and only a few things prevent me from rating it higher.The good: Tailgate handle assy installed easily and looks like an OEM part when installed.The OK: Picture quality is adequate but not stunning. During the day it is very washed out and hard to pick up fine detail. At night, in low light, there is a lot of fuzziness which is likely to be expected with this type of camera sensor. It functions for what it is intended for, but would have been nice if the picture was a little sharper and had better dynamic range. With all the mass produced mini-cameras embedded in cell phones, stepping up to a bit better sensor should not have been a significant cost driver.What could be improved: small improvements to the cable harnessing would make install a bit easier.First the power harness was significantly shorter than the video cable harness. It was not long enough to run the power harness all the way from the back of my truck to bring in though the firewall. I wanted to run the camera power off the same power circuit that runs the headunit so that if there were a short circuit, the only fuse that would blow is the radio fuse... so I needed to make an extended wiring harness for the power/gnd connections.Second, the portion of the wiring harness attached to the tailgate handle was too short to exit the bottom of the tailgate. The longer wiring harness needs to be fished up into the bottom of the tailgate handle to connect to the short harness on the handle itself. This means that if you need to remove the tailgate fore any reason once the camera is installed, you will need to remove the tailgate access panel to disconnect the wiring harness, remove the "long harness" from the bottom before removal. If the portion of the harness attached to the tailgate handle was long enough to exit the tailgate before connecting to the longer harness then one could simply disconnect the harness from underneath the truck and then remove the tailgate without having to open the access panel. Since I ended up making an extended harness for the power/gnd, I also made a connectorized extension harness for the handle to solve this issue.Third: Grommets - this kit is specific to Dodge Ram 02-05 trucks. The bottom of the tailgate and lip of the bed had nice oval holes for routing the wires out of the tailgate and under the truck. Since this is a place where the wires could chaff with repeated opening and closings of the tailgate, it would have been nice if the kit had included 2 rubber grommets to protect the wiring - again, should not have been a significant cost driverFourth: Wire harness loom. Since this kit is specific to a truck, the wiring has to follow the OEM tail light harnessing under the truck and along the frame rail. Since the wiring is exposed to the elements, I encased the harnesses I made in split loom to protect it. Would have been nice if the harnessing would have been pre-loomed as part of the kit.Lastly, the harnessing did not include a reverse-lamp trigger wire to trigger the head unit to switch to the reverse camera display. I ended up tapping into the reverse lamp circuit somewhere under the dash, however it would have been easier to tap into the reverse lamps at the back of the truck either directly in the tail-light harness or the trailer hitch connector. However this would require running another 20ft wire from the firewall to the back of the truck.Overall, I spent another $35 on additional materials to complete the installation and address the items above.Overall, I am happy with the end result. Will see how long the camera lasts and how well the plastic handle holds up to the sun and the weather. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/50457736-master-tailgatersblack-tailgate-handle-with-backup-camera-replacement-for-dodge](https://www.desertcart.in/products/50457736-master-tailgatersblack-tailgate-handle-with-backup-camera-replacement-for-dodge) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
