You guys are in luck. I have been doing a ton of research on this. YES GM offers a full function camera system for their trucks. Unfortunately they are too stupid to advertise it or inform their dealers of its existence. There are actually 2 brands that I have found that will work with the OEM infotainment system. One of them is made EchoMaster and is referred to as IntelliHaul by GM. It even has GM part numbers. I'll warn you... This process seems to be deliberately complicated as you can order each camera separately or with the base system. You need to make sure that you only order one with the base system and the rest as just stand alone cameras. All the parts can be found by going to your brands website and searching the accessories section(also a terrible experience).

The other system is made by ADC. It seems to have all the same functionality as IntelliHaul but adds and HDMI input as well. They make it a lot easier to see what you want and just add the cameras you need.

THIS IS AWESOME! Do you know if a GM Dealer has to be the one to install or if there are other places that will handle this as well??

I've seen a camera from EchoMaster that is specifically made for the Silverado/Sierra 3rd Brake Light above the cab. Would something like that work or are you needing a below the tailgate view?

I'd like one on the bumper. Echomaster does seem to have ones that go above the lic plate. However, one up high might be nice as well.

Well based on that I'd look into what Z2Z shared, that setup looks perfect. If you only need the one camera I think there's a more simplified version on the site too. I searched by "See What Fits" or something of the like on the right of the main page.

 

Didn't look like they had updated everything to include 2018 functionality though so I searched 2017.

Search the forums.  There are already 2 or 3 threads with install instructions and pictures from guys that have already done it.

Forgot to ask, have you purchased any of these items yet, or still in the researching phase??

I believe that any competent audio shop could handle the install. You can get the parts from the dealer, but if they dont know what your talking about(like mine), I would not recommend having them do the install. Just find the part numbers and then order from GMPartsDirect.com

 

I have not made a purchase yet. I’m doing all of this for my Dad. He is super picky and wants it installed on his new truck by the dealer before he picks it up.

 

If I end up going this route, I’ll be doing the ADC system and connecting an AppleTV or Chromecast to the HDMI input.

Does anyone know which wire from the camera is the power wire? Looks like with my WT2 I have to run power to it.

Where? Can you provide a link, or which forum these threads are in? I haven't seen anything in this forum & there are a lot of forums on this site....

To clarify Z2Z's post- ADC is actually a reseller of systems etc.. The system in the link is actually made by a company called Rostra.

Yes, that is the case, however I doubt that the product can be found for much cheaper than ADC's prices. I will do some additional research and share if I do find it elsewhere for less.

I don't think so either. Their price is very good

If you do a search you'll get 2 or 3 pages of results so I can't list them all.  Here are some of the main ones.

 

GM version:

 

 

 

MVI version:

It looks like you guys have figured it out. I initially thought that ADC was a brand because they are the ones that produced the video. It looks like the sell several systems, including the EchoMaster(IntelliHaul) system. The one that I linked in my original post is made by Rostra and it supports an HDMI input.
