cargo light with camera

[steelrfan85]

What do I need to be able to get a third brake light with cargo camera? I'd be taking to a shop because I don't want to do anything wrong and ruin something.

I can't answer your question but just so you know it's not a cargo camera; it's a camera for the digital rearview mirror.

I never use mine for several reasons. For some reason it gives me slight vertigo when I first glance at it. It's also like the right external mirror in that things are actually closer than they appear, and does not work well at night.

Here's a thread on how to add a digital rearview mirror.

I was referring to a camera that looks at the bed like the GMC has

I did a DIY bed camera...I have a 2022 RAM 1500 Lone Star...a while back I added the 360 Surround camera system, (the thread on how to do it is on the forum)...my understanding was I could not add a bed camera with the 360 camera system in place, so I looked for an alternate way. I bought a used 3rd brake light off of eBay to experiment with...upon examination I noticed there was lots of room for an after market camera. Measured and drilled a hole in the center and mounted the camera. A while back I activated 2 AUX camera ports on my Uconnect 5 radio, (tapped into 2 wires for each AUX camera location and added a 2 wire RCA camera plug...there are how-to instructions on the forum..."Adding OEM Front Camera"...is the thread name). Ran the cable from my new bed camera to the AUX camera RCA plug...and the image is viewable on the Uconnect screen.

Did you ever figure out a way to make this happen? Also interested in a cargo camera, not so much a digital rear view
