While hesitant, I drilled the two holes after consulting with GD support. The upper hole hit an aluminum frame piece. I just pushed on thru. Then I threaded the screw in to see how it would go and could not screw it into the aluminum behind the fiberglass. Drilled a slightly bigger hole and threaded the screw in and out. Then used a new screw in that hole to mount the bracket. Since this screw is in metal it drew up good and tight. The bottom screw tightened as well but I didn’t over do it.
Now after 500 miles and a couple a big cities, the camera is fantastic safety device and peace of mind when changing lanes. Also great when backing into the narrow KOA site. Great.

A quality urethane adhesive would bond the camera to prepared gelcoat too. Just need to apply pressure to the mount for the initial 24 hours of cure. So backed against a fixed object where you could use a prop for instance.

3000 plus miles of towing with the new GM camera mounted up high on the back of my 37 ft. Trailer. I’m very happy with the view while driving and maneuvering. Very helpful in busy traffic. I’m too long fir the magic of transparent trailer, but the picture quality is great and nice to have it on the infotainment moment display. I was hoping that I could also get the image on my rear view mirror, but the pic displayed on that mirror just shows the view from the truck backup camera. Maybe I just don’t know how to get the trailer camera feed to go
To the display. Any ideas?
