This is the best video for tailgate lock installation on KZfaq. Thank you

I just installed my OEM power lock. Thank you very much for your assistance with this video. Easily the best video on KZfaq for this install. Quick and easy.

Great detail instructions. This OEM Toyota part is supposed to be installed by a Toyota certified technician and does not come with installation instructions. This video enables DIY installation of this OEM automatic tailgate lock that integrates with the existing electrical harness. Everything worked as expected and this video made installation very easy.

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 KZfaq. Great job.

Installed this in 45 minutes with the help of this video. Great work!

Thank you for this very clear instruction! I'm using it as my guide for my own installation on my Tacoma.

I followed your video step by step and was able to install one on my new Taco. Thanks for a perfect how to tutorial

This is an excellent video showing all the details better than the factory instructions. Thank you!

I installed pop & lock from Amazon a few years ago in my '17 tacoma. Well worth it.

Just finished my upgrade. Thank you for the assist!

Getting mine in two days and you just saved me some sleepless nights. good job!

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.

Very detailed video! It was a big help to reference during my install on my 2020 Taco OffRoad

Excellent video! Just finished installing this on my 2022 Toyota Tacoma TRD Sport. This video made it so easy!

Great video, you make it look easy. It looks like a fun project and something that is doable for anyone.

Amazing details. Gives me the confidence to try it instead of paying 3x for the install at stealership

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!

Thank you very much bud! just installed mine yesterday with confidence following your instructions and works great.

I just finished installing mine and it works great, thanks for the tutorial

Thanks for the informative video! I am waiting for my kit to arrive in the mail, and I am bookmarking this video!

great video, better than the others out there. has all the detail necessary to do this install properly. thanks!

I ordered this today for under $120 including shipping at Passport Toyota Great gift for someone or yourself. This is the best video on KZfaq for this DYI installation Thank

Wow nice

Great video! Just installed and went smooth with your instructions. Thanks for creating!

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!

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 !

Thank you so much! I was able to easily walk through the installation with this detailed and informative video.

Excellent video ! Best one yet explains step by step ! Thanks brother !

Thank you. Quality video with clear instructions!

Great video installed mine today and it went great

Thank you easy to install less than one hour and work great

Best video by far on this.....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.

The best video Ive seen for this. Thanks for sharing.

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!

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”.

Great instructions. It helped me instal one on my truck.

Thanks - nice job.

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.

I have a 2020 Tacoma. I can’t believe it doesn’t come already Installed I had to order one.

Great instructions. Thanks

Thanks for your video very informative, I install it today ur video made easy for me to complete it, worked out well, thanks again

Great job with camera angles and attention to detail!!! Keep up the good content!!!

Solid man. Thank you for taking the time to record and share with the community.

Excellent video and instructions!

Thanks for the video, very detailed.

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

I installed mine today. Was not too difficult. Thanks for the video. No instructions came with the box

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.

exelente ayuda . agradecido te tu explicacion muy detallada y precisa.

Excellent Video

Best instructions ever.

Wow this video really helped me

Great video. Thanks

Thank you!! Very Very helpful.

Good video. Although the music was a little overpowering, I will use it as a guide to my install.

nice video man and great choice of trucks!

Great video I may do that one day...😊

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.

Good job. Thx 4 sharing!

Thanks for this video just did the install

Thank you great video

Nice !! Thank you .

Just did my , thank you for video tips

Nice job with this How-To....

Man. This looks way easier than the pop and lock install I did and seems to be much quieter.

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.

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. 😀

Thank you for this video

Great how to video. Thank you

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.

Great video. Music was a little annoying at times, but I appreciate the effort you put into this! Ordering one soon.

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??

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!

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

great video. But we could do with out the music its distracting..

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!

the best

good job bro

Just need some glow sticks for the music. Great video, very informative.

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.

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?

Do any of the new Tacoma trims come with this already factory installed? Great video

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?

Great !!! Do you have the part number available? I have a 2021 TRD OR. This will be a great addition to my truck !

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!

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.

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?

does anyone know if this will work on a 2018 tacoma ? i don't know why it lists 2019-2021 as the years

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?

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.

Very nice, thanks for the video. Do you mind sharing the purchased links?

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?

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

Works in a 2022 trd off road? And you have a link? Great video too

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.

Do you have the Amazon link for a 2021 Tacoma.

I got mine from toyota and it's a little different than. I installed it but when Iock it it's and when I unlock it it lock. Any advice

What's the part number? Great video
