Backup camera

Our new tv has a backup camera in the tailgate. Is there a backup camera that can be mounted to the back of our 5er that would use the factory installed screen that the trucks backup camera uses? If so wireless would be my preference but if I had to run wires it wouldn't be the first time. I found a system that GM makes but it is over a grand. For a grand I'd rather backup and yell I can't see you at the dw.

Thanks

Go for the GM system. it's well worth the money IMHO and you can get it for around 800 on ebay. Truck monkey seller in Portland often has the best price. includes cameras in the side mirrors, a remote camera that works extremely well for the Trailer and an optional camera for either the bed for a 5th wheel, or for anywhere else you want a camera.

I don't know how one can add another indepedent camera to the factory display, you need to be able to control the HMI module.

I put the optional camera on the front license plate.

Display is on the GM display, can set it so mirror camera comes on when signal is on, along with rear camera as well.

install is a DIY if you want, took me about 3 hours to do an extremely clean install. plug and play
