Has anyone tried to install just rearview camera in a halogen CHMSL and OEM digital mirror? Maybe camera sold separately and will cheaper then LED CHMSL.
The rearview camera is built into the led chmsl. No way to add one to the halogen ones. If you are thinking of the cargo cam there is another thread for that.

Maybe is possible to install another camera, like 68417514aa? Sure the built one used by Chrysler not only in Ram chmsl.

I understand correctly that the digital mirror does not work in 19-20 trucks?

Yip. That’s no problem. I’ve retrofitted harder than that with the 12” in a 4th gen. The hardest part about this one would be sourcing a cluster.
Hi do you have pictures and steps how you did this to the 4th with 12" also did everything work

Does anyone happen to know the part number for the 2 screws that the CHMSL Led third lamp uses??

I'm tempted to use the two of the 4 screws from the old lamp but I remember reading somewhere that the new led lamp uses two different screws and with all these rear window leaks going on I didn't want to take a chance on using the wrong screws for the new lamp.

I just used the old screws and it has been fine.

At this point are we still waiting on anyone who may have finally got the new digital rear view mirror to work in the '19 - '20 Rams. I have a '20 Limited and I'd like to add the mirror to my truck if it's at all possible. The HUD would be nice but I think that modification if it were possible would be way too expensive. My plan is to add the Ram OEM CAI in the near future.

Yes, we are still working on getting it to work with 19/20.

Did the member who got the new bcm get it working?
That would be me. I had the 2021 BCM installed in my 2020, but the dealer couldn't get it to program. I sent the BCM to @Jimmy07 and he is looking into along with another member. If it is possible, these guys should be able to figure it out. In the meantime, I installed the 3rd brake light just so I could use it since it has LEDs.
