Question:

Hello, Im adding a slide-in camper to my 2016 Tundra and am looking for a back-up camera that is plug and play into the OEM wiring harness that the tailgate plugged in to. Do you have one?

We do offer a range of aftermarket backup camera systems, but please note that these are all independent systems that are intended to remain separate from vehicle wiring. They are not designed to be used along with the Toyota OEM harness from their factory tailgate camera system so unfortunately we cannot provide any help to use that wiring. I checked with Furrion who makes the item # FOS05TASF you referenced to confirm they offer no such option.

Depending on the size and design of your camper a license plate-mount system may be a good option as long as the camper does not interfere with the line of sight to the license plate area.

The most popular camera system for owners of the 2013 Toyota Tundra is the Hopkins Rear View Camera with Backup Sensors, part # HM60195VA. This system uses a manually-adjustable license plate-mount wide-angle camera and sensors and includes a 2-1/2-inch color LCD display and a 19.7-foot cable between camera and monitor. It provides both visual and audible alarms as it detects items up to 5-1/2-feet away. I have linked a video showing installation and use of this system.
