2007 Rear View Mirror with Camera
Does anyone know if they are going to make the Auto-dimming, rear view mirror with a backup camera available for the earlier F150's?

Anyone know the part number for the Ford OEM Tailgate backup camera. Specifically the ones that are on the 2008 F-150's. I wanted to add one to my F-150, but I needed some info like is there a paint to match version and does the oem camera have a video cable that could plug in to a DVD head Unit instead of the mirror.

Yes, I got a quote from a Ford parts distributor who is usually quite low.
Back up Camera: $226.05
Rear View Mirror: $502.66
Tailgate Handle: $71.15 (black) or $104.23 (painted)
Wiring Harness in Gate: $219.99
Wiring From gate to Main Harness: Price not available yet
Wiring in roof for mirror: Price not available yet
He tells me that you can find similar backup camera for a lot less.

Well I changed my backup camera to the Tailgate handle. I bought the OEM tailgate handle and then added an aftermarket camera. The had to modify the handle a little though. The OEM camera fits inside the handle, with the aftermarket one it sit outside of the handle and I also had to widen the hole a little, but it works very well and doesn't look that bad.
Changed from this:
Edge Camera $240.00
To this:
Tailgate Handle $109.00
Camera $25.00

I chose this method because the wiring was already there from the other camera and I plan to add a 12" Rize lift to the truck so it will be sitting pretty high. The angle from where this camera sits actually covers a big blind spot that will result from the lift height, wiring was pretty simple I just bought the wire harness that the seller of the camera sold, the link to the camera I used is below. I just ran the wire through the hole at the bottom of the tailgate and thats it. The camera cost $24.99 plus $12.01 for S&H
