Pretty good, for 2021 Gladiator
Installation was pretty simple, using the instructions from Z Automotive's website and referencing related videos on YouTube. 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.

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.

Camera mount is not made for Jeep Gladiators
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.

Definitely makes you more confident seeing what’s in front down low
Extremely easy to install absolutely no problem. The video is not quite as clear as the rear knew when I bought it Works perfect for the hills and trails

It works.
It’s good for the price. Works fine, doesn’t have paper instructions. However the website covers it great. Camera resolution leaves a little to be desired. All in all, great service, fast shipping. Seller was awesome.

Disappointed
This product does what it says, but for the money I’m very disappointed. The adapter to connect the camera to the radio was very easy to install and nicely made. The camera holding bracket on the grill is mediocre at best. The design doesn’t sit quite right. The camera itself has a very poor dynamic range and picture quality. Off-road, it can be hard to tell what you’re actually looking at. I wound up replacing the camera with a better quality one ($16 here on Amazon). The product does what it says but for the premium price I expected a much better fit and finish and a top quality camera.

Great for the money!
I was hesitant about the quality of the picture because of other reviews. Don’t be! It is fine It is not as high quality as back up camera but is very clear to see what is in front of you. Great for pulling in parking space and on the trail. Easy install and the Mount on the gladiator is very solid and sturdy. Best deal around for front camera

Front view camera
Camera works great for when used for pulling up to cars in parking lots and for trail rides.

Great product and fast delivery. Highly recommended

The only problem is that it's hard to tighten it so it doesn't rotate from the vibrations caused by driving. Other than that, the screen is clear and easy to hookup.

Good product but camera doesn’t fit the gladiator grille. Camera is meant for the wrangler jl grille. Jt grille has big holes in insert that the camera doesn’t clip into to. Instructions also only show to cut for wrangler. Doesn’t say anything for the jt

Great picture allows you to see directly in front of bumper. My complaint is night time visibility. When you approach other cars with lights you see halo effect
