It'll fit. The emblem size didn't change.

I have a 06 I added the tailgate handle camera looks down great for hooking up trailer, going to a 6" touchscreen. I love it

thanks...

after i posted i started looking at pics and decided it should fit.

think i will order the cam housing and emblem for $60, then determine camera hole diameter size and buy a less expensive aftermarket camera to fit in there.

would love to see a pic of what your camera views. how far back does it look?

just curious, as i already stated i want it primarily for the trailer hookup angle.

Did tailgate handle camera on my 2014 with a rear view mirror screen. Pretty happy. Camera is slightly off center, but still nice addition

do you not have it plugged in? or is it just out of cam view?

is the camera adjustable (vertically) at all?

thanks again

No hitch installed. It is visible when I have it installed.

You could slightly shim it if you wanted to. But no true adjustable function.
