Frequently Asked Questions
Does this camera retain the factory tailgate lock?
Yes. The G154V housing has a provision for the original tailgate lock — the factory lock is kept intact and no additional keys are required.
Does installation require drilling?
No. The G154V replaces the factory tailgate handle — the entire camera housing sits in the existing handle location without any additional drilling.
How do I remove the parking guidelines?
Parking guidelines are set to ON by default. To remove them, cut the white loop on the camera cable during installation. This is a permanent setting change — once the loop is cut the guidelines will remain off.
Does this camera display a mirrored image?
No. The G154V outputs a non-mirrored rear view image. Confirm whether your head unit or monitor applies its own mirror/flip function before installing.
Is a 168-degree lens very wide and are there any distortion considerations?
168 degrees is an extremely wide field of view — wider than standard parking cameras — and will show some barrel distortion at the edges of the image, which is normal for very wide-angle lenses. The broad view is more useful for identifying hazards across the full rear width of the Amarok's wide tray.
