I have ACC on another vehicle. It cost a fortune to replace that windshield on that car, so I specifically ordered my JT without ACC. I do wish I had the OEM trail cam though. I added the ZAutomotive cam and it is a great alternative at a very affordable price, but not the quality of the OEM or have the self cleaning function.

Right with you with your signature.

Guessing this is the camera: https://www.zautomotive.com/product/z-jt-cam/

What was the process to install? Says no splicing in the description. I have a JTR, and assume there may already be wiring available to hook up to?

May be time for me to splash out on a "Tazer"

I found a place that will do the windshield for our Jeeps for about $300 including the bogus charge to adjust it. That's only about $50 more than the windshield without ACC.

If anyone in the Indianapolis area wants to know the company, PM me.

You don't need a Tazer, Jscan and AlfaOBD can also be used to activate the Cargo Camera input. The installation instructions are available in the Camera listing. You need to add two wires to the plug on the back of the head unit, or buy the $80 T harness. The clone cameras are available on Amazon for about $95, if you want to try the cheap route.

Hi all, I just got me a sweet 2020 Gladiator Rubicon that's pretty well optioned out with the exception of the forward trail cam, I'm wondering if this can be added without too much hassle. Thanks and here's a picture of my new (to me), Gladiator.

I went with the Zautomotive front camera. Works pretty well

I bought the front camera from Zautomotive as I already had the Tazer mini. It took 1.5 to 2 hours to install and has a great picture just as good as the rear camera. Very easy to install and an amazing upgrade to have on the trails.
Thanks, this is the route that seems the best/easiest to accomplish.

For you tall people. It works really well to turn on at a red light instead of cranking your neck down to watch for it to change to green(OEM front cam here).
