I could be wrong, but I’m not sure you can adapt that camera to the rear view mirror. It’s a different connector, unless that camera comes out easily. And you can mount the other one in it’s place.

That camera points directly at the bed. So you wouldn't be able to see anything behind you.

Indeed, otherwise known as a bed cam.

Hello everyone.  I am new to this forum and am really interested in this mod.  I am hoping you guys could help me source the parts.  Does anyone have the part numbers for the mirror or camera?  Did those who have done this mod, source used parts from eBay or just buy new from GM?  Any input is greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Finally got around to installing the camera into the brake light. Need to get used to the depth perception with the camera when driving.. 😅

I used a Dremel first, them a step bit. I opened it up from the inside, then finished it off with a down angle. I used the center dimple as well.

 

My main thing was to see into the truck bed/rear when my Bakflip was all the way up blocking my view and this does the job.

 

I also knew the brake light bulb was going to be an issue, so ordered two 6" LED strips and used those as the brake light, turned out really nice. I already had LED bulbs in there. I upgraded the lights to brighter LED as well. Swapped out my brake flasher with one that had a timeout feature.

Mirror  this is the mirror I use. I got it last year for 120 from same seller

also I think it depends what camera you have.

I found it was cheaper to buy the whole third brake light for the T1xx truck
