We just received the programmers less than a week ago. Everything you need to integrate the camera into your 4.2" screen is included in the kit and no dealer programming necessary since it does everything for you.

The installation is plug and play, which makes it super simple to install!

Here's a link to the kit directly:

Take care,

i got a chance to talk to chris from cs today.. great guy.. answered every question.
The way he explained it was there is a lockpick like module that reprograms the truck and there is a harness you plug into either the screen or it piggy backs and allows a video input. its active only on reverse. I will be buying one VERY soon. I will do a write up if there isnt one by then.

I spoke with him as well in email, and he said if you already have a camera in the tailgate they sell the harness and module for a discounted price but ya have to call it in because it's not on the website yet.

I plan on getting one as well, I and a few others spent the better part of a year trying to figure out how to make this happen but no joy, glad someone figured it out.

I followed that thread for quite a while hoping someone would get it going. It's nice to see that they have a plug-n-play setup for our '13s. I would like to have my bu camera in the 4.2" display...but didn't want to dive into my dash and start cutting and tapping into wires.

Can you mount a front facing cam with this and switch between the two?
