    I found a kit that uses the OEM steering wheel "Hold" button as a switch to trigger the Camera controller. Double tapping the Hold button kicks the system on, then using the up/down steering wheel keypad, you can toggle between factory rear and front camera.
    I originally found this on tacomaworld, but noticed the model code were the same, so i jumped in on a GroupBuy to to roll the dice and see if it works. I have not installed the front camera yet, but can confirm that after pulling the HU and installing all the harnesses connector, it functions as described in the video below on my 2018 SR5 Entune Radio.
    Skip to (6:30) to watch function of controller
    I purchased the kit from Pros:
    Utilizes existing switches
    Plug and play with instructions
    Will automatically switch between front rear for parrellel parking scenarios.

    Cons:
    No VIM bypass
    Still need to supply your own camera.

    I have this in my Tacoma. It’s pretty nice except it gets annoying that it interrupts the GPS so navigation gets confused if you are using it.

    still debating on if I’m going to put one in the tundra.
