Default Front camera

Can you retro fit a front camera to an existing non camera car? i.e. a 5015

No, not in any practical manner (too hard to integrate into the electronics stack, though anything is possible if you change enough parts).

I wound up adding a CurbAlert which is an audio sensor, and there may be video ones as well, but it means dropping your screen to show a second monitor, etc.

You could also get a box that injects into the camera signal for the rear cam, but how you get it to "come on" at the right time while creeping forward, I am not sure.

You can add one with an aftermarket device like a Navtool.
