Default Parkview camera?

Does anyone know who the vendor is that makes the parkview camera? Still waiting on mine, but would like to know. Don't want the aftermarket cam, trying to stay OEM. Its interesting that they are showing up on newly purchased vehicles but none available yet for purchase (on backorder).

Mine just came in Friday from my dealer. So they should start rolling out now.

Found out today that there were 184 backordered cameras until today, 100 have been shipped out, so now there are 84 on backorder nationally and they will ship another 100 on may 19. If you need any parts or accessories call Art at Henson motorsports or find then online, great to deal with and some of the best prices.

Got my camera installed today. Works perfectly. Appears I was one of the first 100 as the dealer I got mine from told me the exact same numbers as you. Paid $235 for the camera. Installation was pretty darn involved so I called my local dealer (not who I bought the camera from) and they asked how I had one already since they have a few on order and have not gotten them. And was I sure it was the MOPAR one.. After verifying it for them and reading the part number they said they would do the install for $100 since they wanted to see how hard it was and know for other customers.

Said it took them 4.5 hours and they lost money on the deal for sure, but learned how to do it..

Cool Help:Parkview camera

Glad you found and were able to get a camera for your truck. Can you tell us who the name of the manufacture? My dealership is asking for over $600.00 for camera and installation, if they can even get a camera.
