You can make something out of hose sealer and silicon from Lowe's or Home Depot.

The white plastic piece snaps into a large hole in the hatch opening and is designed to squeeze the molded lip on the black rubber boot to make a waterproof seal. When the hatch is open the black boot has a significant amount of tension on it as well.

You would have a difficult time making something to replace it and particularly finding a sealing compound that will stick to the painted metal and the rubber and form a completely waterproof seal (particularly for the O.P., who is in Panama, where it is hot and wet).

Yikes, yeah, I don't think I completely understood how it operated.....so in hindsight....the better idea is definitely to go buy the harness (and part) from the dealer or online.

Good luck.

Thanks for all the responses

I will evaluate all the options available:
1. Buy the whole harness
2. Search in the junkyard, some new yaris have crashed
3.Another post have a lead for possibles replacements, partial Part Name Code (82819-XXXXX) that will investigate more.

The best advice I can give is: Be careful when installing any reverse camera
