I'm about to cut the wires on my factory backup camera...

[OFC Ranger]

...to relocate it to the rear of my rack up higher. Appears to be just standard 22 gauge wires feeding the various items. Anything I should keep an eye out for?

The harness for our Ranger is only 5 pin behind rear emblem.

Also, why pay when I have the tools and material to make my own harness.

It plugs in to the connection behind the bumper. Where you disconnect it if you need to remove the tailgate.

And don't forget the protective cap.

Pro tip, thats just a bigger harness that ties in with the rear power gate lock wiring.

The camera is 5 wires. Easy snip snip to add in extension I need.

I figured it might be, and looking at your picture I see that it is. There's a set of twisted pair wires there. You'll want to make sure you use a similar setup on your extension wire. Those will be the data/signal wire from the camera. They're done like that to reduce noise in the circuit.

Here or there. I don't care if the guide lines are out of wack, never use them anyhow. Ill rig up an angled bracket.

If its mounted in the middle i would think the lines would stay pretty close , might end up being a better angle from up there ...

Cool you can do that.
I'm crap at electricity, although I did rewire my Harley, all 3 wires!
