Aerpro APC158C Chrome Tailgate Handle Reverse Camera Isuzu D-Max
Aerpro APC158C Chrome Tailgate Handle Reverse Camera Isuzu D-Max
A clean, factory-matched reverse camera solution for the Isuzu D-Max, the APC158C replaces the factory tailgate handle to deliver a 105° rear view with AHD 720P output, IP68 waterproofing, and a chrome finish that matches factory chrome-trimmed handles.
Product Overview
The APC158C is Aerpro's vehicle-specific tailgate handle reverse camera, engineered exclusively for Isuzu D-Max models from 2012-2020. It replaces the factory tailgate handle directly, providing a seamless OEM-style installation that requires no additional holes to be drilled into the vehicle. The chrome metal housing is designed to match factory chrome-trimmed tailgate handles, delivering a factory-matched aesthetic that integrates with the vehicle's original exterior styling without any visible compromise. The 105° diagonal viewing angle reduces rear blind spots during reversing and parking manoeuvres, while selectable parking guidelines (switchable via loop wire) provide visual reference in tight spaces and can be enabled or disabled to suit the driver's preference.
Video output is selectable between AHD 720P and CVBS via the loop wire, providing broad compatibility with aftermarket head units including those with AHD camera inputs such as the Aerpro AM705, as well as Aerpro Advanced Safety Vision monitors and standard RCA composite displays. The 4-pin heavy duty camera cable runs 0.5 metres from the camera to the connector, with a 10-metre extension cable included alongside a 4-pin to RCA adapter for integration with most aftermarket displays. Built with an IP68 waterproof rating and an operating temperature range of -30°C to +80°C, the APC158C performs reliably in all weather and climate conditions. The APC158C can also be adapted to display on the original factory Isuzu D-Max screen using the optional APVIZ11 display adaptor, sold separately.
Features & Benefits
Isuzu D-Max Specific Fitment: Engineered exclusively for the Isuzu D-Max (2012-2020), the APC158C is a direct OEM replacement for the factory tailgate handle, providing a factory-finish installation that integrates seamlessly with the vehicle's original exterior styling.
Tailgate Handle Replacement Design: The camera mounts discreetly in place of the factory tailgate handle without the need to drill additional holes into the vehicle body, preserving the vehicle's structural integrity and maintaining a clean appearance.
Chrome Finish Housing: The chrome metal housing is specifically designed to match factory chrome-trimmed tailgate handles, delivering a polished, factory-matched aesthetic that is indistinguishable from the original hardware at a glance.
105° Wide Diagonal Viewing Angle: The wide viewing angle reduces the blind spot directly behind the vehicle during reversing and parking, improving situational awareness and driver confidence when manoeuvring in confined spaces.
Selectable Parking Guidelines: Visual parking guidelines are switchable via loop wire during installation. The white loop wire controls guideline display and defaults to on. Guidelines can be disabled if the connected head unit provides its own overlay or if the driver prefers an unobstructed view.
AHD 720P or CVBS Video Output: Output format is selectable via the green loop wire, defaulting to AHD 720P for compatibility with AHD-capable head units and monitors. Switching to CVBS provides compatibility with standard composite RCA inputs on a wider range of aftermarket displays.
IP68 Waterproof Rating: The IP68 rating confirms full protection against dust ingress and continuous water immersion, providing reliable performance in rain, off-road conditions, and wash-down environments typical of ute applications.
Wide Operating Temperature Range: Rated from -30°C to +80°C, the APC158C operates dependably in both extreme cold and high-heat environments, making it suitable for use across all Australian climates and seasons.
Chrome Metal Housing: The durable chrome metal construction provides both a factory-matched finish and the structural resilience needed to withstand the demands of daily ute use, including exposure to impact, vibration, and harsh outdoor conditions.
Includes 10-Metre Heavy Duty Cable and 4-Pin to RCA Adapter: The 10-metre extension cable provides ample reach from the tailgate to the head unit location in the cabin, and the included 4-pin to RCA adapter allows connection to standard RCA camera inputs without additional accessories.
Adaptable to Factory Screen: The APC158C can be connected to display on the original Isuzu D-Max factory screen using the optional APVIZ11 display adaptor, sold separately.

A trigger wire is not included and reverse trigger activation is managed through the head unit or installation harness.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the APC158C and a standard black tailgate handle camera?
The APC158C is identical in function and specification to its counterpart but features a chrome metal housing designed to match factory chrome-trimmed tailgate handles on the Isuzu D-Max. If the vehicle's tailgate handle is finished in black rather than chrome, a black finish variant may be more appropriate for a factory-matched aesthetic. Confirm the finish of the factory tailgate handle on the specific vehicle before purchase.
Does replacing the tailgate handle affect the handle's open and close function?
The APC158C is a direct OEM replacement for the factory tailgate handle, designed to maintain the original handle's functionality while integrating the reverse camera into the housing. The tailgate open and close function is retained after installation.
Can the APC158C display on the factory Isuzu D-Max screen?
Yes, with an additional adaptor sold separately. The APVIZ11 display adaptor is required to connect the APC158C to the original factory Isuzu D-Max screen. Without the APVIZ11, the camera connects to an aftermarket head unit or monitor via the included 4-pin to RCA adapter.
How do I select between AHD 720P and CVBS output?
Video output format is selected via the green loop wire during installation. The default configuration with the loop wire connected is AHD 720P. Cutting or leaving the green loop wire open switches the output to CVBS composite for compatibility with standard RCA camera inputs. Select the output format that matches the camera input type on the connected head unit or monitor before completing the installation.
Can the parking guidelines be turned off?
Yes. The white loop wire controls the parking guidelines. The default configuration with the white loop wire connected displays fixed guidelines on screen. Cutting or leaving the white loop wire open disables the guidelines. If the connected head unit generates its own dynamic parking guideline overlay, disabling the camera's fixed guidelines prevents a double overlay from appearing on screen.
