- Welcome to 4K Motoring!
Today we are performing a simple upgrade that makes living with the second generation Nissan Titan and Nissan Titan XD (2016+) a little easier. To call the backup camera that comes from Nissan "adequate" would be generous. Thankfully, our friends at Master Tailgaters have just the solution. Their upgraded backup camera (available here: amzn.to/3yUyY30 ) is an easy upgrade to enhance rearward visibility. The installation took only a few minutes requiring only a few household tools. Watch the video and see for yourself!
Have any of you watching found another solution that works well? Have you replaced your infotainment screen to add clarity to your backup camera feed? Let us know in the comments below!

Thanks for this video! I just changed out my camera. It was super easy. Your video definitely helped out!
Glad it helped!
Thanks for posting this. I’ll look around to see if there’s a better quality camera available yet before I poke around. Nissan should be embarrassed to send out that poor level of quality camera OEM.
Any luck? I have the Phoenix unit with a better resolution display. Curious of any camera that are direct fit that improves this feature.
just bought a Titan and am finding your real life experiences with the truck very useful.
Thanks for sharing 👍
I was having trouble with my back up camera on 2018 Titan SV 4x4. Just replaced mine using your video and part suggestion. Low light picture is Much better.
Glad to hear it! The low light performance is definitely the biggest difference I've noticed as well
Much better than the original. I’m working on a solution as well. Let me know if you’d like to collaborate on a solution. Great 👍 video
I'd love to find a more modern solution. This upgraded camera is a huge upgrade, especially in low light environments. As mentioned, it isn't even 1080p quality. As we move into the mid-2020s, I'm amazed at how little quality these backup cameras still offer
There’s an obvious noticeable difference but not sure it’s worth it. Nissan just needs to improve this feature like every other manufacturer in 2022. No wonder they are so behind the competition selling on 30k a year!
Looked ok to me.dunno wat your need to read backin up other than obsticles..
Add Dieselleds for back up lights
You’ll be amazed!
I've seen these all over the forums! I'm definitely considering some increased lighting for the rear of the truck, this camera is a big improvement in low light already
@@4KMotoring I changed out all the bulbs in my 18 SV with Lasfit except the back up which was the first upgrade and used the Dieselleds
Huge improvement.
@@stevevetter8045 I definitely need to do that swap. I want to find a set of 2020+ taillights for my '18 as well!
@@4KMotoring lots doing that upgrade looks good
Switch to LED bulbs and it makes a big difference
I got the Phoenix unit installed, bigger reverse display with obviously a better resolution, curious of the difference of this mod would do for it.
I have been very curious if the head unit is the main cause of the low resolution or if it is truly the camera itself. The upgraded camera I installed still says it's not up to 1080p or similar quality that I would expect out of a modern camera, so I'm not sure how much better it would look on an aftermarket head unit
Recorded horizontally😀👍
Yes?
I thought the bush was gravel on the first camera. 2nd camera shows the bush more clearly
It's definitely an improvement, especially in low light
I am getting a 2019 next week donyou know if this camera work for for that year?
Yes it will! Install will be the same
Awesome thanks for the quick reply, this is definitely on my list to by sooner rather than later
It is a definite improvement, especially at night
I wonder if this works for other nissan models
Nissan does tend to use the same parts across models, so there's a good chance. It would all depend on the bracket that is used to mount it. If you want to take the time to take your vehicle apart to verify that the camera looks similar, you could be pretty sure it's the same model
I have a 2020 XD apparently they don't have one. Do you know of anyone else who offers for after 18;model years?
I believe the replacement camera is the same, the website just did not update it's catalog
I was told Nissan is still using an analog camera feed system. Just bought a 2023 Pro 4X, and as a camera nut. This drives me crazy
Yep, you're not wrong.
for some reason my camera seems more pointed down after install...
Interesting, I don't recall any changes when I installed mine.
You look like you would be Tim Tebow’s brother
I wish! I wouldn't have to be here making CZcams videos!
Sorry dude. Does not look good enough to upgrade.
It's not as high quality as I would have hoped. I will say that the low light performance is much better
Not sure that's worth the effort. You need a backup camera so you know if youre going to hit something - not to read paint can labels while backing up.
Monetary investment aside, it is surprisingly very low effort to make this switch. The night time visibility has pretty substantially increased as well as some of the fine detail which is helpful for things like hooking up a trailer.
Sure, people have backed vehicles for years without cameras at all, but clear images are appreciated
It looks exactly the same
It's not a profound difference for sure, it is a bit more noticeable at night as the new camera lets in a lot more light. For that reason, I would say it was a worthwhile investment...
My 2020 Frontier Pro 4X back up camera is terrible. By contrast my wife's 2019 Mazda CX5 backup camera is so clear you can actually read a book in it. Thanks for nothing Nissan
This camera will definitely improve it, especially in low light. Still not as clear as you'd expect from a modern camera!
This guy lol
Not worth the trouble
I can say it is definitely better in low light, but still pretty disappointing in 2023 standards
For 120$ I don’t see the difference I’ve got an 2018 Titan and tail lights are smoked and I’ve never had a problem day or night but hey to each his own yolo
I noticed the biggest difference at night as the image is a whole lot brighter than the factory camera. If you're not hooking to a trailer or backing through intricate areas in the dark, it's probably not a big deal for you. Still, it is woefully inadequate compared to most other modern vehicles, even with the upgrade.
