Zach, what are you using for the in bed camera? Is it mounted on the outside of the truck? My thought would be to use a dash cam mounted in the rear window. It can be tucked ideally at the top of the window, and no wiring to run outside of the cab.

it is behind the third brake light. No wires outside and camera has some adjustment. I will add a Pic shortly
I was looking through the Android head unit thread I linked earlier and found this image. I am not sure how familiar you are with video inputs, but you can see ports 2 and 3 (S8 rear panel) are dedicated video inputs. The ATOTO dash camera runs via one of the USB ports so the two RCA video inputs are available. I used one for my bumper back up camera and Wes444 used the second one for his rear of 5th wheel camera.
This will be very similar for just about any multimedia head unit and is not unique to ATOTO.
I have used a magnetic Bluetooth camera with a very strong magnet on it. Worked really really good, and it was very versatile. Forgot to take it off at the cattle auction, and it found a new home.
@Whitey Ford would you mind sharing a link to your camera setup? Is it Bluetooth to your phone or another display?
I’ve been looking for a backup camera I could use on my enclosed car trailer then easily move over to my son's high school band trailer for when I tow it. Actually the band trailer is the worst since I have no one (I can trust) to spot me and they inevitably want you to blindly squeeze into a spot for a VW Bug. I’d buy a permanent one for the band trailer if it isn't too costly.
