Hi everyone. I know this topic has been discussed fully for the 2019-2022 Rams but I have an additional question that hopefully someone can help with. I have a 2024 Ram 2500 Rebel. It already has the 360 camera system. When I ordered my truck the DRVM was not available to add (supply chain issues). I already bought the DRVM with one output for FCW/ACC. I have made the updates to the system to turn it on but I think I need the 3rd brake light. I have the CHMSL with cargo view already. Does anyone know the part number for the correct CHMSL, I need the one with cargo view and the RVDM camera. Also, besides the new Fakra Z cable, what other parts or programming updates will I need to make (I already turned DRVM and DRVM 360 to Yes and turned CRVMM to No). Thanks in advance for the help!!

It all depends which DRVM you bought. What is the part number of the DRVM?

That’s the 2023+ DRVM, so the thing with that one is you can’t plug the camera directly into it. You would need to add the DRVM camera processor that goes under the driver seat.
You’d probably want to go with the 2022 DRVM with the two camera inputs.

Thanks…can I just get the processor under the seat? Would I need to get a harness and a new CHMSL as well?

Also, wouldn’t I already have the camera processor since I have 360 cams?

No, the DVRM system is self-contained. the 360 system is separate and do not communicate to each other.

Nope! I thought that too. The images you see in the rear mirror come from the cameras installed in the sideview mirrors and are NOT the same as the cameras for the 360 system. The location for the 360 camera are underneath the sideview mirror, and the DVRM cameras are installed facing straight back by the LED lights.

You mean the LED tail lights? Because from the pictures you can clearly see the sides go the bed (I.e., from the mirrors)

No, see here, right above the LED that lights the ground.

Yes, you can get the processor, the correct 2023+ CHMSL with the cargo and DRVM camera, and you’ll need a custom harness for the DRVM processor. It installs under the driver seat near the surround view camera system processor.

Jimmy, do you have part numbers for the DRVM processor and the CHMSL with cargo and DRVM camera?

CHMSL with surround view camera system cargo camera plus DRVM camera is 68552687AB. I’m not sure on the DRVM processor part number, maybe @CortexM0 knows off hand or can get it off of his. I’ll see if I can find it on some of his pics he posted of it.

Don't know it off hand. But going back over some pictures, it looks like it may be 68508050AD.

Wiring is simple. Switched power to pins 4+11. Ground to pins 7+8. Coax from module to mirror, and from module to each camera.

Thanks CortexHD…that p/n is coming back to the forward facing camera. Do you have a link to the write up you did on this?
