Tools and Materials

  • 5.5 mm drill bit
  • Trim removal tools, screwdrivers, pliers
  • Cable conduit (recommended for easier hose routing)
  • Hose clamps, electrical tape

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

1. Preparing the Tailgate

Remove the plastic trim on the tailgate door (secured by clips)

Unscrew the two bolts and carefully detach the rearview camera by releasing its clips

2. Mounting the Nozzle

Drill a 5.5 mm hole near the camera's mounting bracket

Assemble the nozzle from two parts: insert the lower section into the hole, then snap the upper part into place

Reinstall the camera and secure it with bolts

Pro Tip: Test the spray angle before finalizing the nozzle position—ensure the stream targets the camera lens directly

3. Connecting to the Washer System

Locate the rear window washer hose

Install the T-connector (Part No. 9866433000) into the existing hose to split the fluid flow

Add the check valve (Part No. 9888629000) to prevent backflow

4. Routing the Hose

Run the hose from the T-connector to the nozzle through the tailgate's interior cavity

Time-Saver: Use a cable conduit to simplify routing and protect your hands from sharp edges

5. System Testing

Connect the hose to the nozzle and secure all joints with clamps

Refill the washer fluid and test the system: activating the rear window washer should trigger the camera nozzle

Common Challenges and Solutions

  • Issue: Difficulty routing the hose under the trim
    Fix: A cable conduit streamlines the process and prevents damage to components
  • Issue: Misaligned spray pattern
    Fix: Adjust the nozzle using water for testing before final installation

Why Install the System?

  • Safety: Clear camera visibility in rain, snow, or mud
  • Compatibility: Kia/Hyundai parts work seamlessly with the Nissan X-Trail IV
  • Budget: Parts cost starts at ~1,500 RUB; installation takes 2-3 hours
