Default OEM backup camera rearview mirror?

I know there is no good way to install a backup camera on the factory NAV system. So, I was wondering if anyone has thought about installing one of the GM rearview mirrors that has the backup camera screen built in, and also has the Onstar buttons in it as well, like is available in the Camaro?

Here is an example:

Thoughts?

You can install the 360 lockpick with the back up camera on your factory nav system

I've read about the lockpick, and seen too many issues with it.

Besides, my car is a 2012 which is not compatible. Lockpick only goes to 2011.

Well, forget that. Just remembered that our mirrors also have the passenger airbag indicator, as well as the map lights in it.

Back to the drawing board....

Pretty cool but requires surgery.
