I have a 2020 GMC Sierra SLT. One of the factory options is adding the bed view camera for $250. Since mine did not come with this, I wondered if it would be possible to add it? Being that it’s only a $250 factory option, I figured it can’t that difficult to do. Has anyone done this or have any knowledge of this?

Iceman, if you happen to find an answer to adding the bed view camera, please let us know, I too am wanting to attempt to get this installed.

That’s not true, at all. I was looking at two identical trucks. One had the extra bed view camera, one didn’t. The difference in price was $250

I priced up a Sierra SLT on the GMC build and price site and to add the bed camera I had to first have the Driver alert package, convenience package, premium packages to add that $250 camera.

Yes, but all of that is included in the Premium Plus package, which I have.

I would have thought it would be a simple plug and play. I haven’t removed the lamp assembly and looked, but I figured that there’s already a wiring harness there. I couldn’t see it being anything difficult since it’s only a $250 factory option. Cheap options usually mean fast and easy. If it was $1,000 option, I’d believe there was much more to it than just a simple harness plug in. 
I guess I will call GMC and see what info I can find out. 

Did you ever call or find out anything from the dealer?

Sorry to bring this post back the from grave but interested to know if anyone has done this yet? I just ordered the parts to at least do the live view rear view mirror (DRZ) upgrade. Would be nice to get the bed camera working as well.

Camera review mirror and the bedview camera are separate cameras. 

 

So if you want both you need the assembly with TWO cameras

thanks but I sold it about a year ago. Only 23,000 miles and had lifter and transmission issues. GM admitted the lifters were bad but said they wouldn’t replace engine until the engine failed. I guess they thought that was quality customer service and thought I would enjoy to continue to stare at a check engine light. This was my first and last GM vehicle.
