Any ideas on the complexity/cost of adding 360 camera? Currently only have back up camera.

Would entire side mirrors have to be replaced or can cameras be added to existing side mirrors?

 

you´ll need OEM mirrors with the cameras built. you might even need a power distribution module (PDM) that is programmed to control a 360 degree camera. adding a front facing camera might require a whole new grille with the camera built into the ford emblem. it won´t be easy and won´t be cheap. it won´t be a plug and play type of project

 

It can be done, however it won't be cheap. I looked into this pretty deeply for my wife's 2018 Expedition. I bought most of the cameras, (for the expedition) you can get the camera for the mirrors to add, but the harness was different without the camera wiring. If you are good with connectors and wiring you can make a small harness to connect it to the dash harness pretty easily. The front Grill camera just required a different emblem with camera built into it. For the expedition, the wiring was already in place for this.
The other main part was the PDM which was the most expensive part (~$1,000 new). I looked on ebay for the longest time thinking I could pick one up from a wreck sooner or later but never have found any much cheaper. Once the hardware is in place you will need to enable it with forscan. Again this was everything I found on a 2018 Expedition Limited with the 301A technology package, I suspect the 2021 F150 will be very similar.

 

Probably be a wash on time and money to take the hit on a trade in for a truck that has them installed from the factory.

 

not a bad idea since trucks right now are holding their value like gold

 

You will need the side cameras. $400 - 500 on eBay. Grill camera $100 - 300 on eBay. Advanced IPMA $400 - 500. Cargo cam. Assorted wiring. Forscan to enable all options.

 

 

Just wondering has anyone done this?

 

Finding these parts will not be easy. I have looked. If you find them, please share. I did find alternative systems.

 

Looks like this company is the only place offering any type of interface for the 21s
