Can BLIS be added?

I'm going to assume that the BLIS system is not something that can be added on after purchase. Any thoughts?
Found a truck with out it, would prefer to have it though.

Up to you but I would skip that truck. These are big and the bonus is now they work towing a trailer.

Yes it can be added if you have a Lariat, see the following thread...

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...av-system.html

Several of us have added BLIS and CTA, I have complete list of the parts need with full part numbers in one of the later post.

I can confirm that the Forscan changes are slightly different between a 150 and 250/350. But nothing to worry about.

The hardest part was running the wires through the mirror assembly for the LED in the glass.

if you pull a trailer the trailer blind spot is a must, and the cross traffic is very nice in parking lots.

Next time I'll buy a truck with it. :-)

Wow, thats a lot of work. I was thinking I'd get the dealer to do it. After really looking at the truck specs, its not worth it. Will find one that has it already.
