Default Front camera

Little help please.
Has anyone installed a front camera, that is integrated into the factory system or bluetooth to a iPhone? Can't seem to find a camera for front of vehicle, most want to be hard wired to a separate monitor.
Appreciate any help.

I installed one on my 2019Z for front camera. Absolute seamless integration with the factory system and monitor. Works perfectly. Install is simple.

I activate the front camera via a rocker switch I mounted on the dash. Looks stock.

Navtool. I have it on my 2014. Gives video to the NAV screen. Automatically turns on if you reverse and then drive. It can be forced "on" by pressing the BACK button for 3 seconds. It will auto off at 9 mph. IT also will stream video from your iPhone to the nav screen. I've had it for 4 years and it works flawlessly.
THis is the thread from hell as we were going through new product pains. Finally got it correct and it works just fine.

The camera is made by "Pyle".
Model PLCM38FRV
170 degree field of view
Color

It is great for 14 and 15s without a front camera.

Thanks Elmer. At some point I may want to install something like that on mine.

OK but where do we get high quality aftermarket replacements for the factory cameras? That's what I want to know..
