    So has anyone removed or repositioned their front Camera on the 22 or 23 models with MTM system? I know some relocate their TSS sensor panel with brackets made by C4.

    I don’t really like the way the front camera looks, sticking out of middle of grille. Kind of an eye sore. Anyway to replace/move? Or just completely deleting and replacing with a different lower grille?
    Thanks.

    I agree! I have a 2015 and had to add my own front facing camera.

    As a side note, I wonder if it's possible to retrofit an OEM front camera into a 2014-2019...hhmmm...?!?!

    based on what i have read, vehicles equipped with MTM/PVM have their own specific headunits. i’m not a guru but i’m sure someone out there may know better than myself.

    Wonder then if someone found swap out the 2023 head unit and front grill/front camera with someone who has a 21 model that wants the MTM system?

    if one put a 2021 grill in the 2023, thus deleting the front camera - would just a blank screen then appear? The 360 view not work at all? In other words what happens when the front camera is disconnected?

    the birds eye view goes haywire when one or more cameras is nonfunctional.
