I wanted this camera only for better front visibility when parking, as I've come way too close to bumping into cars; this camera definitely helps with that. This is my first Jeep, and the front bumper sticking out has taken some getting used to. The SD video quality is fine; of course not as sharp as the HD backup cam. This is a limitation of the radio/nav screen input. Between this camera and the Tazer mini (needed to activate the "cargo camera" option), I dropped about about $500. Although install was straight forward, it didn't work correctly until the next day. I really have no idea what changed overnight, but right after install the screen icons were all moved around and neither the backup nor cargo cam icons showed up (I was thinking maybe I used the wrong pin locations for the screen input, and even emailed Z Automotive for help that night). I did nothing further, let it sit overnight, checked the next morning and everything worked great...no idea what "changed" overnight. I came across similar comments online. Getting the camera level took a bunch of adjusting, but was much easier once I realized there's a small access hole in the bottom of the grill bracket (Gladiator only bracket) you can use to spin the camera in either direction. Also, before I actually stuck the camera in the grill bracket I turned it on and found what was level then put a small mark on the front/top of the camera. I installed this about eight inches down from the top of the grill (see my pic) since the front bumper edge is my main focus. For trail use, I'm sure using the top hole would make more sense. Finally, I moved my screen icons around so I now have both camera icons in the bottom “tray”; makes using either one a snap. One other note…leaving the Tazer plugged in at all times will allow you to turn on, and leave on, either camera regardless of speed, as opposed to the Jeep default of turning off in something like 5 seconds when moving over a certain speed; can be handy in tight parking spaces. Review: Nice front camera! Easy installation. - I installed the JT Front Camera today. The instructions covered installation pretty good. But I did find it very helpful to watch some of the YouTube videos that show the installation steps. The camera quality is decent- definitely not as good as the factory rear camera but it is good enough to do what it is intended to do. Enabling the cargo camera was straightforward and easy using the Z Automotive Tazer mini. ## Features - Cargo Camera: Requires a Tazer JL Mini (purchased separately) to activate the “cargo camera” input on your screen; Works on the 8.4″ and 12″ UConnect only - Standard Definition: This is a high-quality standard definition (480i) camera - Optimal Trail Camera: Should the Tazer JL Mini (sold separately) be utilized, this camera input can be turned on at any moment, in any direction, and at any pace, whenever desired; It serves as an ideal trail camera as well as for parking purposes - Easy Installation: It comes with all the necessary components for installation, eliminating the need for wire splicing or screws - Vehicle Compatibility: Fits 2020-2023 Gladiator and Wrangler; Cargo camera input is not a Hi-Definition input like the backup camera; This is a high-quality standard definition (480i) camera; There is no way to add a HD cargo camera input to the radio ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0B2KBJ4M1 | | Best Sellers Rank | #59,433 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #794 in Vehicle Backup Cameras | | Brand | Z Automotive | | Built-In Media | Camera and necessary for communication connection | | Compatible Devices | Monitor | | Connector Type | RCA | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 3.8 out of 5 stars (51) | | Display Technology | LCD | | Effective Still Resolution | 480 Lines Per Inch | | Installation Type | Screw In | | Item Type Name | Camera | | Lens | Standard | | Lux rating | 0.1 Lux | | Manufacturer | ZAutomotive | | Optical Sensor Size | 1/4 inch | | Optical Sensor Technology | CMOS | | Real Angle of View | 120 Degrees | | Video Capture Format | 480i | | Video Capture Resolution | 480p | | Voltage | 12 Volts | | Warranty Description | No | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Z Automotive - **Compatible Devices:** Monitor - **Connector Type:** RCA - **Field Of View:** 120 Degrees - **Installation Type:** Screw In - **Lens Type:** Standard - **Optical Sensor Size:** 1/4 inch - **Optical Sensor Technology:** CMOS - **Real Angle of View:** 120 Degrees - **Voltage:** 12 Volts ## Images ![Z Automotive Z_JT_CAM JT Front Camera fits 2020 2023 Gladiator Wrangler - Grille-Mounted - Standard Definition - Easy to Install - Perfect for Trails & Parking - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51yxHXM+cjL.jpg) ![Z Automotive Z_JT_CAM JT Front Camera fits 2020 2023 Gladiator Wrangler - Grille-Mounted - Standard Definition - Easy to Install - Perfect for Trails & Parking - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81KZG43aOTL.jpg) ![Z Automotive Z_JT_CAM JT Front Camera fits 2020 2023 Gladiator Wrangler - Grille-Mounted - Standard Definition - Easy to Install - Perfect for Trails & Parking - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/814Lxt+DWWL.jpg) ![Z Automotive Z_JT_CAM JT Front Camera fits 2020 2023 Gladiator Wrangler - Grille-Mounted - Standard Definition - Easy to Install - Perfect for Trails & Parking - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81fVdV2jkYL.jpg) ![Z Automotive Z_JT_CAM JT Front Camera fits 2020 2023 Gladiator Wrangler - Grille-Mounted - Standard Definition - Easy to Install - Perfect for Trails & Parking - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712qZA1DyzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pretty good, for 2021 Gladiator *by M***S on March 1, 2023* Installation was pretty simple, using the instructions from Z Automotive's website and referencing related videos on YouTube.

Easy installation. *by J***J on January 2, 2026* I installed the JT Front Camera today. The instructions covered installation pretty good. But I did find it very helpful to watch some of the YouTube videos that show the installation steps. The camera quality is decent- definitely not as good as the factory rear camera but it is good enough to do what it is intended to do. Enabling the cargo camera was straightforward and easy using the Z Automotive Tazer mini. ### ⭐ Camera mount is not made for Jeep Gladiators *by W***P on February 2, 2026* The camera is good and this installation is pretty straightforward, except for the camera mount itself. The mount that comes with this product is not the correct mount for the 2021 Jeep Gladiator. The plastic mount will lock in but it limits the cameras view left and right because it is blocked by the actually grill. The camera mount might work with a JL but definitely not the JT. I have seen similar complaints on this camera but had hoped it would not be the case for my order. I will attempt to make a homemade mount system for the lens as Amazon and or ZAutomotive will not take responsibility for this incorrect mount for the Jeep JT Gladiators. It's a shame because so many other of the ZAuto products are great. Do not buy if you have a Jeep Gladiator. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/450071468-z-automotive-z-jt-cam-jt-front-camera-fits-2020](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/450071468-z-automotive-z-jt-cam-jt-front-camera-fits-2020) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
