4Runner (5th gen) rear dashcam mount - for Viofo

Update: 12/20/2023
The V3 I uploaded a while ago should have enough space to mount the backup camera. I've tested it and used it myself. Please leave feedback if it works or doesn't for you. Thank you!

I intend to make just one or two changes to this to make it a little easier to route the cable and possibly more surface area for the camera. Will also add the fastener part number incase you want to buy a few from Toyota (or from ebay, it's really inexpensive) to replace what you're using now. Stay tuned!

After seeing a few on the www.toyota-4runner.org, and unable to reach those who made them, I decided to make my own.

This doesn't require any special riveting, bolts, or screws; it reuses the original fastener that you pull out with a pair of pliers.

This is for a Viofo rear dash cam, but you can use any CAD app and enlarge (or shrink) the pad area.

I suggest PETG if we're talking Arizona or extremely warm climates. Otherwise PLA or PLA+ will do.

Steps:

1. Print this mount
2. take your Viofo / dashcam (or what have you) and hold it down onto the mount for a minute or two. Let it sit over night.
3. Take a pair of pliers and rip out the fastener (save it. If you goofed it up and tore it up, you can easily find an inexpensive replacement bunch on ebay called "toyota headliner retainers")
4. pull power cord through hole and through the guide on the mount
5. place mount w/cam in place and push the fastener through
6. Make sure it's good and steady, and then plug in the power.
