My OEM Front Trail Cam install thread

[DailyDrivenTJ]

@DailyDrivenTJ when I get back from my trip in about a week my first order will be to remove the center console and look for a place to mount the CVPM under there in the “factory JL” location. ..

Please do. Right now I am considering under the passenger seat. Ordered some amp mounting hardware to see if I can make it look somewhat professional.

That’s why I also ordered the RAM 2500 mount…it doesn’t get any more professional and OEM than using MOPAR brackets for the CVPM on other Chrysler products. I’ll also upload some pics of those parts once I get them delivered as other ways to mount the unit.

Edit: so a bunch of parts ordered are discontinued so I’m back to square one on that RAM 2500 bracket…damn

Whoever comes up with the best alternate mount, I'll update post 1 and remove all references to the OEM position. This is all a hell of a lot easier this way ( once YOU GUYS lay the ground work, lol )

Haha, we are just picking it up where you and Jimmy07 left off. Would never attempt this without you two documenting your success! That picture above of the wrangler center console is clutch and gives me hope that we can finalize this process for all those after us and cut the time in half.

How do you attach the bracket with the screws and clips? It doesn’t make sense to me. I need a visual ??

the grille piece is ready for it... everything up on the grille is self explanatory, trust me. Only goes one way. There's even a path to tie in the camera cable and a "beam" to clip on the washer hose.

Cool I figured that out. Screws inside or out? Clips? Do the clips get inserted anywhere or just push on the end of the screws?

The hose Clips are built into the hose assembly

How does the bracket get assembled?
These are the parts I’m talking about.
06510197AA (2) TWO Front camera bracket nuts
68090949AA (2) TWO Front camera bracket screws

the screws don’t have threaded holes to go into. They use the nuts. Not sure how all that fits together is my problem.
