Question Need help adding RKE door handle

Good afternoon, all. I've been reading lots of thigns for a few months on the forum, and have to say there's a lot of good ifnormation and experience. Today, I am hoping I can get a little of that love myself.

I have remote keyless entry installed on my 2008 F-150 SuperCrew. I had bought and used the $80 "stick-on" keypad previously, as my door did not come with the keypad as an option in the door handle. About a year later, the battery died and I ended up destroying the device trying to get to it to change the battery out. As a result, I would like acquire and install a door handle assembly that has the keypad included. Might anyone know where I could find one, and how to install it in an RKE enabled vehicle, which did not already have an RKE pad on the door handle?

Thank you in advance for any help you all can offer!

Other things I'm looking to add (which didn't come stock):
1) Rear backup camera
2) Seat back for the middle 20 seat which has storage in it (original didn't have storage)

if its possible it will have to be done by someone with IDS software and a VCM, most likely your local dealer. It will need to programmed once installed using this software.
