This is the best video for tailgate lock installation on CZcams. Thank you
Thanks 🙏
I agree best vid, but not the best background music hahahahahah
I ordered this today for under $120 including shipping at Passport Toyota Great gift for someone or yourself. This is the best video on CZcams for this DYI installation Thank
Great job with camera angles and attention to detail!!! Keep up the good content!!!
Wow nice
I followed your video step by step and was able to install one on my new Taco. Thanks for a perfect how to tutorial
How long did it take you?
I have a 2020 Tacoma. I can’t believe it doesn’t come already Installed I had to order one.
Yap same here . I don’t know why
I know why. Toyota is cheap on things like this. I have driven Toyota pickups since 1985 and just bought a 2021 Tacoma. I finally have a Tacoma with a power seat. I just ordered the power tailgate lock.
Just got my 2021 TRD OR, 2 dealers have quoted me $575 and $430 for parts and labor to do this, your video just gave me the confidence to do it myself. Thanks for very much for the clear instructions and quite frankly that’s what I am here for, the music is fine. Everyone is a critic.
Thanks
Just did the install, the video was such a help! Thanks again.
Do you have a part number? I have a 2021 TRD Sport. Thanks.
I just installed my OEM power lock. Thank you very much for your assistance with this video. Easily the best video on CZcams for this install. Quick and easy.
Solid man. Thank you for taking the time to record and share with the community.
Please note that in the “SR/SX” model Tacoma’s, 2020 at least, there is no wire harness from the passengers side front to rear. I had to improvise by running the harness inside the frame rail and ty wrapping it thru the holes in the frame. I did this by placing a fiberglass rod on the outside of the frame rail and ty wrapping to it, thru the hole. Other than that the plug and play OEM harness is simple to install as you show in your video. The OEM part number for 2020 is PK3B6-35JS0.
PS: mine is a 2020 Tacoma access cab with the 6’2” box.
Yup I'm stuck now I have a 2020 SR and I didn't check for that harness
The video is good relative to the installation. I just routed the harness inside the frame rail rather than in top as noted above. I also didn’t use the metal ties as shown as they aren’t as flexible as the regular ties and are further away from the heat inside the rail. So far no problems. Let me know if you have questions.
Unfortunately I totaled my 2020. Luckily I got a great settlement from my insurance company and replaced it with a 2023 SR. It too has no wire harness on the passenger side, so will be installing the harness in the same manner as the 2020.
Getting mine in two days and you just saved me some sleepless nights. good job!
Glad I could help!
Thanks for this video just did the install
Thank you so much for your very detailed installation guide, the community appreciates you!
This is hands down the best video for this installation on CZcams. Great job.
Just finished my upgrade. Thank you for the assist!
I installed pop & lock from Amazon a few years ago in my '17 tacoma. Well worth it.
Great how to video. Thank you
Great video! Just installed and went smooth with your instructions. Thanks for creating!
Installed this in 45 minutes with the help of this video. Great work!
I installed mine today. Was not too difficult. Thanks for the video. No instructions came with the box
Glad it helped
Thanks for the informative video! I am waiting for my kit to arrive in the mail, and I am bookmarking this video!
Thanks 🙏
Just installed mine. Took an hour and I took my time. Thanks to your video. The hardest part for me was getting the two plastic clips that hold the camera and tailgate wires together. It was a pain to get them wedged into place.
Thanks for watching, Yes it is a little difficult part.
It's easier to put them in from under the tail gate (down) as you.can see it very clearly
Just got my 2022 TRD Sport 4x4 and used your detailed step by step instructions to install the remote lock. Like you suggested I also bought the OEM part instead of the generic one to minimize any breakdown and having to rewire it. Works like a charm and saved me $300! So thank you! You are much appreciated.
Excellent Video
Thank you 🙏
Great video. Music was a little annoying at times, but I appreciate the effort you put into this! Ordering one soon.
Sorry about that. thanks
This is an excellent video showing all the details better than the factory instructions. Thank you!
I put my tailgate harness backwards at first. You made it sound like the male got fed through first but in fact the female end should be inside the tailgate area. Male goes towards front of truck. Easy fix. Should have watched whole video first instead of following along lol. Super helpful video. Took maybe 20-30 minutes all in. Thank you!
Your video was the best one out and gave great directions, the only suggestion I would have is to tell people about the orientation of the clips that get mounted for the tailgate harness. Thank you for a great instructional video
Yep I agree that was a pain in the neck the little clip part faces to your left.
Thank you for this very clear instruction! I'm using it as my guide for my own installation on my Tacoma.
Good video. Although the music was a little overpowering, I will use it as a guide to my install.
Sorry about that
That you for this! I installed the factory kit using the instructions and help from your video. Routing near the exhaust was the most time consuming but it was otherwise smooth and easy. I bought the recommended 3M sealer ($30 tube) and used about a pencil eraser amount of it; in retrospect it was unnecessary to use the 3M seal. An zip tie or piece of duct tape in the same spot would accomplish the same and save $30. Anyway, that you for the instruction!
Glad I could help!
I must have missed the part about the 3M?
@@MKultrapdx In the OEM instructions which this video follows (however not sequentially) calls out 3M item code 08302 for connecting the harness clip to the inside of the tailgate (see 6:30 in the video, where they did not use anything) A copy of the OEM instructions can be found on the sparkstoyota product page - item # PK3B6-35JS0
Thank you so much for posting this video! I like to do my own work as opposed to taking the truck to the shop, so this was super informative, with detailed instructions!
Glad 🙂 video helped
Amazing details. Gives me the confidence to try it instead of paying 3x for the install at stealership
Great video, you make it look easy. It looks like a fun project and something that is doable for anyone.
Excellent video ! I just bought a 2021 Tacoma and had to redo a bed extender that the dealership didn't install correctly. I will add this tailgate lock myself !
Glad it helped! , I installed my bed extender few days ago added video for that too
Thank you, Thank you! The video was money! Without this video it would’ve been pretty difficult to install. Appreciate you taking the time to create the step by step video.
Thanks - nice job.
You’re a better man than I.... you said it took you one hour. I just finished up and took me three hours exactly. Three things I can suggest to people that are going to do this :
1. Print the instructions in color. The black-and-white instructions are crap you cannot see what they are talking about.
2. Unplug the camera wire at the tailgate and bring it through, it makes it much easier to put the new body clips on the wire.
3. The orientation for the new clips: the springy tabs face to the left (facing front of truck) on the body and the tailgate when clipping them in. The groove on the right hand side of the holes is meant for that little tab on the wire holders.
And just an interesting note.... I never noticed that the truck has a "hood ajar" signal. I noticed this when I tried to test lock the tailgate and my hood was up.
any tips on the "clevice" install - i pretty much did the same as you - used my fingers and pushed down with a screwdriver - i believe it may have popped off as i hear the motor running but its not locking or unlocking now.....seems like a flimsy design imo - thx!
Very detailed video! It was a big help to reference during my install on my 2020 Taco OffRoad
Thank you very much bud! just installed mine yesterday with confidence following your instructions and works great.
Thanks 🙏 glad you liked it 🙂
Best video by far on this.....thanks!~
Excellent video ! Best one yet explains step by step ! Thanks brother !
I just finished installing mine and it works great, thanks for the tutorial
great video, better than the others out there. has all the detail necessary to do this install properly. thanks!
Best instructions ever.
thanks
The best video Ive seen for this. Thanks for sharing.
Great instructions. Thanks
nice video man and great choice of trucks!
Thank you 🙏
Great video installed mine today and it went great
Good job. Thx 4 sharing!
Thanks for watching! please subscribe for more 🙏
@@MyTacoma okie
Excellent video! Just finished installing this on my 2022 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport. This video made it so easy!
I have to agree with the other comments wow you are great at doing and explaining the how and why. After watching the video oh yeah “subscribe”, I have a new Tacoma and there are a lot of mods I want, but all stock, but wanted to save not dealer install, “do it yourself”.
Thank you. Quality video with clear instructions!
Put mine on today… Took me about an hour and a half. I have watched this video enough times I only used it to double check myself.
Thank you easy to install less than one hour and work great
Thank you. What would you do if the grommet hole already has an existing wire running through it? I got a 21 TRDPro and stuck. It also seems like the stock grommet is smaller than what's there. How would you integrate the two? Use the current, pop it out, slice it open, run the new wire through and silicone??
This should be standard on all keyfob trucks @toyota. Hardest part for me was the stupid wiring clips and their orientation for the bed/frame and tailgate. Good video even if you move faster than I can. Thanks!
I just installed this kit. I could see that I needed more clearance to fit the wire protectors at the tailgate and the bed. I rigged a small platform with a piece of plywood and a bench. The plywood rested on the bumper and the bench. I partially removed the tailgate on the passenger side, angled it rearward several inches, and laid it on the platform. The extra three inches of space made this part of the job much easier.
You could have also just closed the tailgate and worked from under it. Easily accessible.
great video. But we could do with out the music its distracting..
Great instructions. It helped me instal one on my truck.
Great video. Thanks
Wow this video really helped me
Great video I may do that one day...😊
Thank you so much! I was able to easily walk through the installation with this detailed and informative video.
Great guide for this install. Thank you for the time and effort you put into it. I have a 2016 OR and everything was exactly like you demonstrate in the video except for one thing. The body plug on my truck had some wiring running through it already with a rubber seal. I had to improvise here. I made a small hole in the seal and ran my wiring harness through it. I applied some silicone around the area where I made the hole to seal it from moisture. Only other thing I would say, as many others have also commented, would be that the music added NOTHING to this video. When youre pausing and going back throughout the install the music is unbearable. Cheers
Are the wires that were already through the grommet for heated seats?
@@7arsenal I believe so.
Agreed the music was making me irrationally angry lol
I know this is old, but I just installed this on an off-road with the best trim that has the heated seat too.
The access point/grommet that you are speaking of is not the one you lead the harnes through. There is another access point/plug about a foot further back that is ment to be used.
@@MKultrapdx A+ for this comment. Got stuck when I saw wires in the first spot and the rubber seal that came on the harness was way smaller.
Nice job with this How-To....
Just a note on my 24 I had the factory led under lightning. I had to cut the existing plug to remove and put a small slit and cut the harness new rubber plug to accommodate the factory led lightning.
Excellent video and instructions!
exelente ayuda . agradecido te tu explicacion muy detallada y precisa.
Man. This looks way easier than the pop and lock install I did and seems to be much quieter.
Thanks for the video, very detailed.
Great video. Like others my body plug already had wires running through it and had to improvise. For someone that isn’t that mechanically inclined I followed the video to a T and it worked out perfectly. I got scared there for a second at the end that the cable wasn’t going to be long enough but it was just right. After a while I didn’t even notice the music. 😀
Do you have leather heated seats and the wires going through the grommet are for it?
@@7arsenal yes I do have leather heated seats and you’re probably right that’s what the wires are used for.
Did you run it through there or did you find a different hole?
@@7arsenal I ran it through there and squeezed the grommet around it. I thought about cutting a small hole in the grommet to run it side by side but it was afterthought. I just checked now and might go ahead and do that because not sure if the metal frame will slowly cut into the wire covering. I just took a pic to show it but don’t think I can upload it to CZcams .
@@ericwyo8142 Thanks!
Just did my , thank you for video tips
Thanks for your video very informative, I install it today ur video made easy for me to complete it, worked out well, thanks again
Your welcome 🙏 thanks for watching
Do any of the new Tacoma trims come with this already factory installed? Great video
Nice !! Thank you .
Thank you great video
Thank you!! Very Very helpful.
Great !!! Do you have the part number available? I have a 2021 TRD OR. This will be a great addition to my truck !
Will this work with 2021 SR Double Cab Short Bed? I called dealer today and he said they don’t have a part for this model yet. I think he’s mistaken?
Thank you for this video
Is this the same for a 2022 Tacoma TRD Off-road long bed 4x4 with heated seats? I understand the heated seats may complicate the install. Any instructions for us on that? Additionally, an employee at our dealership said that you can't have both the power tailgate lock and the bed lighting kit. He said we will need to chose one or the other. That makes no sense to me as they don't appear to be related or wired in proximity to each other. Can you clear that up for me? I have not seen any mention of that and I know installing the bed lighting kit is a very easy plug and play install. Thank you.
I have both on my 2020 Tacoma, it’s totally different wiring. It’s should be same for 2022 Tacoma , just make sure u order the right harness for long bed.
Awesome video, thank you. But the music is horrible. I have to turn the volume up and down to hear the instructions and avoid the blaring music. Please rerelease the video without the music, or if you have to have the music, just keep the volume constant and low in the background.
Noted! sorry about that , I released a new video about bed extender bracket music is low on that one.
good job bro
Your video says 2019 - 2021 Tacoma. I just went on Toyota’s website, found the part, tapped the button that said “will this fit my vehicle “ and it came back as no it would not. I have a 2019 Taco and would love this mod. Where did you purchase?
So if the Tacoma comes with the keyless entry and you set all doors to open from the drivers side instead of just the one door set from factory will the tailgate unlock as well? Or is it just with the key fob?
Yes it will unlock from drivers door when you install power tailgate lock
Yes this is the best video for this..... is the harness long enough for a 2 door (+ the 2 suicide doors) ? Ie is it the same kit for an extended cab? Thanks for the video!
Yes I believe so. Even though my kit said short bed I have the access cab long bed and there was plenty of wiring.
the best
Thanks
Very nice, thanks for the video. Do you mind sharing the purchased links?
Just need some glow sticks for the music. Great video, very informative.
Great video! That same body plug on my 2021 Pro has wires coming from it so I guess I’ll have to pick a different spot.
Did you try running it through the same hole or did you find a different spot?
@@7arsenal I ran it through a different hole. If I have time, I’ll try to take a picture and post it
@@chrisdelorey4043 Yes please do. I’m debating whether to buy it because I don’t want to struggle with the installation.
@@7arsenal The overall install was a breeze. This hole difference was the one hiccup but finding a new spot wasn’t difficult. I’ll look tonight and let you know where I ran it
@@chrisdelorey4043 OK thanks. I’m going to order it now. I have a 2018 double cab sport with long bed hope it’ll work.
Is it the same kit and installation as 2022 Toyota Tacoma OFF ROAD? Also, my truck is manual transmission (no key fob, just the regular key with remote door lock/unlock). It is my very first truck and I’m novice about trucks and still learning. U
Not sure if you pulled the trigger on it but it's the same install process. I just finished it on my manual tacoma. You just gotta buy the right part (long bed or short bed).
I just did this. Before you remove the factory clips, note which way it is inserted. The hardest part was these clips, they were a very tight squeeze.
I have a 2020 TRD OR and while some of this works fine there is already a wire going thru the grommet under the seat. How is this resolved? Cutting into one of them?
I just cut the one off that came already on the wire and then cut the side of the one already in the truck. I added silicone around it and followed the rest of the video. Took under an hour.
Works in a 2022 trd off road? And you have a link? Great video too
How did you seal up the hole where you removed the grommet? I am worried about water getting in
Harness have the seal to cover up the area
Thank you
Do you have the Amazon link for a 2021 Tacoma.
I broke one of the new wiring harness protector clips during the install. Does anyone know where I can get one for a decent price?
That was a good video, everything was in focus, and you could see what you were doing there’s one thing that you didn’t explain though. The body plug is there a body plug on that harness? Is it on the wire already?
And please get rid of the music absolutely horrible, because it doesn’t need to come up that loud in between your talking. We’re not at the discotheque.
Yes body plug is on the harness that will connect to Vehicle harness.The body harness for the tailgate actuator has a female connector and male connector . as shown at 10:00. so male connector from body wire harness will connect to the vehicle female harness and the male connector that was disconnected will plug in to the body wire harness. Hopefully I answered your questions.
And music I will try to remove it. Before I thought it will be boring without it 😂
The music ..... 😂😂😂😂😂
The music is not that bad 🤣🤣
Great video, you did an excellent job!! Thank you for that. My question is, when you removed the body plug under the front carpet to feed the cable thru, i saw a hole in the body plug at the end. Is the plug with hole came with the part? Thanks👏👏👍👍
