Camera in a fifth wheel tailgate???

I just picked up my 2011 F-350 Lariat that has a Factory rear camera in the handle of the tailgate.
It's really a great thing to have, but I pull a lot of gooseneck and fifth wheel trailers and typically have an aftermarket fifth wheel tailgate on the truck.
Has anyone seen or heard of a kit or camera that is compatible with the factory ford system and could be mounted to the aftermarket gate?
I've got a machine shop so making brackets and such wouldn't be a problem. Maybe I can just buy a replacement camera unit and make my own "kit"?

Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

Why not just remove the stock camera from your stock tailgate and reinstall on the one you want to keep on the truck?
