    Thanks. Here to hoping the 2015 & 2013 camera's are the same. Most likely they are, but I have the year w/ the freak display in the rear view mirror as well, so it always makes me wonder.

    When I bought mine from Pelfreybilt it came with 2 as the cameras changed but I'm not sure what years.

    @Even though @Unchained 5150 has a 2015, I have a 2013 and can confirm that they are the same size. I have examined his before doing mine. It will work 100%

    Excellent. Thank you both!

    On another note, @crashngiggles, have you done anything else related to your back up cam, like the "anytime switch" or added a front to the system? It always seems like our year is left in the dark for these options due to the display. At least from what I have been able to determine talking to vendors who offer them. I would love to be able to click my rear on without shifting into reverse.

    Yes, I did this $5 mod. very easy and worked like a charm. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMbiSJMAFQc Just make sure that you get the "exact kind of switch" in the video or it will not work. I got it at my local home depot. It is great when I am towing but even though the video states that if you have it in Position 1 it will work like it always does, I have to switch it over to work at all. I don't mind it though.

    Just for a reference, this is where I added my switch. I just extended some of the wires a bit to do it.

    Do you know where those wires actually come down from the headliner into. In other words, their path way down into the dash? I would kind of like to just put the switch in one of the open spaces on the dash if I can.

    I do not actually, that was my initial thought when I first tried to do the modification but I did not want to cut the wrong wire by mistake. This is why just kept the switch up above by the rearview mirror.
