Installing the Rear Seat Camera with Integrated In-Car
Microphone
The rear seat camera is intended to be mounted to capture the actions of detainees that are
seated in the rear seat of the vehicle. Kustom Signals, Inc. recommends that the camera be
mounted on the side of the vehicle that is opposite from where detainees are typically seated.
Typically, the camera is mounted at the coat hook in the rear seat area, but there is some
flexibility in where it can be mounted. For example, the camera may also be mounted on the
cage partition between the front and rear seating areas.
To install the camera, the technician will need the following items:
Phillips head screwdriver
Small flat head screwdriver or a pick.
Drill and 1/8” drill bit (only if pilot holes are needed)
1. Determine whether the camera will be mounted on the driver or passenger side of the
vehicle.
2. For a coat hook mounting location:
a. Locate the coat hook where the camera will be mounted.
b. If the coat hook has a protective cover that is covering the screw, remove the
cover using a small flat head screwdriver or a pick.
c. Remove the screw and coat hook.
d. Route the camera pigtail through the hole in the headliner where the coat hook
was installed, and out through the door opening.
e. Position the bracket in the mounting position at the coat hook.
f. Install the mounting screw to secure the bracket to the existing coat hook mount.
3. Connect the inline camera connector to the camera cable.
