    OEM is probably going to need a new head unit.

    Well its not just the camera you would need, but also a software update for the infotainment system, and I think the 2020's have some sort of manuel switch as well?

    Yes, I think it would be very costly, lots more behind the scenes.

    I got a new mirror and placed a camera near the front license plate and the mirror doubles as a camera.

    Are you asking if you can use the OEM camera grill/placement with the anytimecamera system?

    it only has power when the truck is on and I can turn it on anytime with the switch and because it’s not back like, I do appreciate that The switch sticks out a bit. I’m going to change the switch when I find a proper one. I really didn’t want to drill into the truck to mount the camera and if I did, my plate would be blocking the view.
