360 Camera System
My truck didnt come with the 360 camera system, Ive been asking Ford about adding it, until now I found no parts but look what showed up today.

Has anyone else looked in to this? I want to add it but want it to work just like the factory trucks that have it. I assume the Sync 3 is universal connectivity and the trucks harness must have the lines as default already run?

I guess it's theoretically possible to retrofit, by buying all the cameras, all the mounting brackets, all the body parts, all the wiring, the internal components, etc... and then having the whole system re-programmed. I have no idea how much it would actually take, as I have no idea what your truck already has in place.
But I'd assume it'd probably be cheaper in the long run to take whatever hit in depreciation you might have on your existing truck, and just go order a new one with the 360.

I wouldn't be too sure on the harnesses.. the aux trailer cam rear harness (connector above the spare tire on rear side of cross member) only comes when the truck has the 360 view component.

One thing I didnt like was how when you get real close to a car or object on the sides it warps the view of them a bit almost like a blurred fish eye.

When you say plug and play, I assume you mean the camera hook up to the factory sync 3 screen?
Was the trucks harness connections that are required present in the truck already when you setup yours?

i have the NavTV (360 view) module that allows me to look at any camera at any time... AND it enables the side camera views on left/right (which show the poor view at night)

we had a discount for a while.. don't know if it still exists or would work with the camera-source addon

Hopefully I can get this sorted out for my truck still waiting to here back from Ford. I posted here because I figured there many like me that want to add the camera's or even better have already

Plus 1 on this. The cameras are crap at night compared to my Chevy Silverado work truck and the wife's 4Runner. They do get the job done though, just go slow.

Any updates on anyone successfully adding this system? I'll be towing a 41' fifth wheel with a 2017 F350SD Lariat and really wish it had the full camera system. Currently, all it has is the backup camera but I'd love to be able to mount a camera on the back of the trailer.

Camera Source has a couple addons one that doesn't require the 360 cameras
