backup camera monitor

I have a 2016 F250 6.2 4wd lariat. I have a furion wireless observation camera for the back of the 5er. Is there a way to send the signal to the center dash display? My truck is equipped with the Ford back up camera in tailgate. If possible I'd rather not use the external 3.5" monitor that came with the camera,

Thanks.

I have the same camera, and posted this question a while back, got no response.. I was just thinking - try paring the camera from Ford Sync system, the same way you pair a smartphone..

I don't think this possible, unless Furion and Ford have adopted some common open standards for wireless video transmission.

I would think all you have to do is Y the input signal and put a switch so you can pick which camera is feeding to radio.

If you upgrade to Sync 3 I am pretty sure they have 2 inputs or more.

The Furrion cameras are not Bluetooth, so can't be paired like a phone. They are a radio frequency specific to their own monitors.
