Thanks.
There was this post way back to add the OEM 360 camera system which includes the front and side cameras in addition to the rear camera. A good bit of work is required, changing your grille for one with the camera hole/emblem, adding front & side cameras, wiring, modules and Forscan programming. Not sure if only the front can be added, but may be possible.

As an option you can install an aftermarket front camera that can interface to the Sync 3 screen, as I have done.

You may want to check into the the other threads on this subject so as not to derail the Forscan thread.

Yes, as long as it is a high / low speed adapter.

I have a 2019 Platinum and the Lincoln Fold works on it so it should work on your 2019 Lariat.

I have a 2019 Lariat and have the Lincoln fold working. I noticed that I only needed to do the DDM change and both mirrors worked. I still ended up doing the PDM just to be on the safe side.

One thing to note is if you have tow mirrors, you will need to swap the 18 and 19 pins around in the 22 pin mirror connector for the auto fold to work.

Be warned that is a cheap Chinese knock off that have been around for years. It's hard to see but the version on the label I think is 3.5a or 2.5a. ELM Electronics, who makes the chip (also has the patent and copywrite) doesn't have that version. The latest from them is 2.2. This is why Livinitup recommended specific comm devices as they are known and tried and proven. YMMV

So maybe I should just chuck this? The version I have is the V1.5, I’ll attach a picture.
And the Canadian link that livinitup posted at the beginning is no longer found on eBay
