Where should I look to buy a front camera for 2011 F250?
I'm interested in looking to buy my boyfriend a front camera for his 2011 F250, he already bought the truck with a reverse camera pre-installed but I have no idea on price ranges or what/where to look for buying him a front camera that will connect with his navigation screen?
Would love some help!
Thanks

Thanks guys! I'll check those places out! And thank you for putting me on my own thread haha. So If I do get a camera that goes on the license plate what else do I need with it? Just the camera and wiring that comes with it and it will for sure work with his system he already has once it's installed?

Once you get the camera it will need to be wired up. You will have to give it power, and run a wire for the video signal. Also, you will need to find the wire for the factory camera and put both camera video wires on a switch, then connect that switch to the the navigation unit, where the factory camera used to be connected. That way he can select which camera he wants.
I'm 99% sure thats how it needs to be done. If anyone knows different (such as Ford using a proprietary video signal in the navigation unit) let me know. Otherwise you should be golden.

You can also get fancier ones if you shop around.

I'm not sure just putting it on a switch will work. I always thought that video cables had two components, not just a single wire. Might post up in the audio/video section as well. Another great website for anything audio/video for cars/trucks is Car Alarm, Car Stereo, Mobile Video, and Cruise Control Info for Installers
