APPERFiT Backup Camera Tailgate Handle for Silverado

APPERFiT's complete tailgate backup camera kit replaces the handle, chrome bezel trim and lock cylinder for 2007–2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks while adding a factory-fit rearview camera.

If your factory tailgate hardware or rearview camera has failed, this all-in-one replacement restores function and appearance in one install. The kit includes a chrome tailgate latch handle, matching bezel trim, a keyed lock cylinder with two keys, the rearview camera assembly and wiring connectors engineered to match OEM dimensions for straightforward retrofit into Silverado and Sierra tailgates from model years 2007–2014.

Will this kit fit my Silverado or Sierra tailgate?

This assembly was designed to fit GM new-body-style pickups listed for 2007 through 2014. It matches the mounting points and bezel footprint of the original equipment so the parts drop into the existing openings without body modification.

• Fits Chevy Silverado 1500, 2500 HD and 3500 HD (selected years 2007–2014).
• Compatible with GMC Sierra 1500, 2500 HD and 3500 HD (selected years 2007–2014).
• Engineered to OEM dimensions for direct replacement.

What components are included and how do they connect?

The package supplies every exterior tailgate component needed to replace a worn handle assembly and camera in one purchase. Wiring and connectors are provided so the camera can be connected to your truck's existing reverse camera input or an aftermarket monitor system.

• Chrome tailgate latch handle and matching trim bezel for a factory look.
• Rear-view backup camera assembly with mounting hardware and wiring harness.
• Tailgate lock cylinder, two matching keys, and installation fasteners.

How difficult is installation and what tools are required?

Installation is a moderate DIY job for mechanically comfortable owners, typically completed with basic hand tools. The design follows the stock mounting points, but accessing the tailgate interior panel and running camera wiring into the cab may require extra steps.

• Common tools: screwdriver set, socket wrench, trim removal tool and pliers.
• Expect to remove the tailgate inner panel to reach mounting nuts and route camera cable.
• If unsure, a professional installer or body shop can complete the swap quickly.

Does the kit come with any warranty or support?

PPERFiT backs the kit with a one-year warranty to cover manufacturing defects and workmanship. Customer support is available by email for installation questions, fit confirmation or warranty claims.

• 1-year limited warranty included.
• Email support for fitment advice and troubleshooting.
• Replacement parts supplied as a single comprehensive kit for convenience.

Who is this for: Truck owners who need a direct-fit repair that restores both the tailgate’s locking and latching hardware plus rearward visibility. This kit is ideal for Silverado and Sierra drivers wanting a factory-style chrome finish with a built-in backup camera, owners replacing damaged tailgate parts after wear or collision, and DIYers or shops looking for a single-purchase solution to return a tailgate to full function.
