Why do you reply with nothing in you post except my post quote?

So I know a lot of this has been talked about in here but I’m not reading 15 pages of it lol. The first page has the 3rd brake light part number but that doesn’t look like it has the spot for the factory cargo cam? What’s the part number for the 3rd brake light with the 2 cams? ( oem cargo cam, and new digital mirror cam.) I want to do this digital 2 channel tow mirror on my new 2021 Ram 2500 Limited and it has the factory cargo cam but no Forward collision.

So how do the 2022-2024 2500’s have the digital Rearview mirror? They don’t work in 2021 or older? That sucks I really wanted the digital Rearview mirror with side cameras in it too. So that isn’t possible to install that at all on a 2021 2500? I have surround view.

The DRVM will work on your 2021. I thought you wanted to know which third brake light you would need that contains both the DRVM camera and cargo camera. Those are the two part numbers I posted (based on if you have surround view or not, because they’re different cargo cameras).

Now, if you’re talking about wanting the 2023+ DRVM 3.0 and mirror side cameras, that’s a MAJOR retrofit to a 2021. You would need the new telescoping mirrors with DRVM cameras, cut the door skins to mount them, door modules, 23 bcm, 23 memory seat module, 23+ mirror, mirror video processor, 23 CHMSL with cameras, and extensive custom wiring.

Ohh okay. So I can do the Rearview mirror I just can’t do the mirror and integrate the side cams. Thanks for the info.. 👍🏻

Hey everyone, I'm getting ready to do this to my 2021 1500 I want to get the Mirror with 2 inputs just in case I ever want a trailer camera (need to do some more research on how to run the wiring for that, can I just buy the Mopar trailer camera kit?) But every parts site I look at says its not compatible with my 1500, can anyone with a 1500 and a DRVM with 2 inputs confirm if you have any fitment issues? Any problems with running a second camera?

They will say that. Just don't put in your VIN and over the correct DVRM.

Alright, I have a 2021 ram 2500 Laramie, with surround camera, which includes cargo camera, probably obvious.. What do I need to get this to work? Just the mirror and cable?

Man I really got to do this next. I am starting to upgrade things here and there for my 2020 RAM 1500. This is definitely top 10 of the list.
