Default Front Camera

I have a 2018 Lariat with the 502A package. Does anyone know if it is possible to add the OEM front camera to the vehicle or what would be required to do it?

might be cheaper to get sensors painted/installed. This is route I’m taking. 350 for parts and labor.

You have a 502a Lariat 2018 and you don't have a front camera???? I thought it was a standard feature on this build...at least I have it on mine.

Camera, grill (one with camera hole), dash button, and forscan should be it I would think. The harnesses should already be the same. You’ll have to add wiper fluid pipes and tubes if you want that functionality as well but prob isn’t necessary.

The 360cam is part of the tech package, not the trim package.

Oh okay, sorry 'bout that!

For what its worth...the 360 camera side cameras are (in my view) useless. The front camera however is priceless!

I agree the front cam is priceless and I'm learning to find some use for the side cameras but the tech package lane keep functions and the parallel park assist I find useless (ATM)

Not sure if you know this, but there are TWO front cameras in the F150. The nose camera in the grill is uesd for the 360 camera view. The other front camera is in the rear view mirror and is used for active cruise control, lane assist, and some other features.

I'd also be interested in adding a front camera on my 16 XLT
