Front facing camera?

So I found a aftermarket grille I really like. Problem is it does not have a mounting spot for my front facing camera and washer. I know I can cap off the washer line and be fine. Curious if I unplug the camera what will happen. Will it make the rest of the cameras(mirror and rear cameras) not work? Will it just have a black screen for the front camera and all the others will work fine? Will I have constant error messages because of the unplugged camera? Hopefully someone knows what I can expect IF I choose to do this. Thank you.

worst case, leave the camera plugged in and just located it somewhere else even if it can't see what it's supposed to.

Water got into my front camera at 1000 miles and it went black. All the other cameras still worked fine. Not sure what unplugging it would do though.
