Plug and play from Rostra , if you dont want to snippy snip...
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.

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.
