I do. Love it!
Thanks I have added this to post 1. This should not be needed on 2024+ since it appears they already have this enabled.

NOTE: This is one of those that it is important to know what you are doing. Livinitup's spreadsheet just says
IPMA 706-01-02 3xxx xxxx xx--
APIM 7D0-02-03 xxxx x8xx xx-- adds Trailer Side View toggle under Driver Assistance

But that is for ICE F-150's. Our trucks have additional/different features. And blindly putting in these values can disable some of those features. I always research the actual spreadsheet and provide Lightning specific values in post 1.

For example changing IPMA 706-01-02 first value from a 0 to a 3 does enable trailer view (MFCTSV Both) and is appropriate for 2022-2023. But 2024's have a 7 there not a 0. This means trailer view is already enabled AND so is CEA Egress Warning. So if you change it from 7 to 3, you disable CEA Egress warning (whatever that is).

Same with APIM. Looking at vehicles, they have a 0,4,8 or C in that position depending on year, trim, ICE or not. 8 or C already has the Sync feature enabled, 0 or 4 do not. But the difference between 0 and 4 is that 4 enables Controls Tab. This is your Drive Modes screen (Normal, Sport, Tow/Haul, etc.). That is why you read some folks loose their Drive Modes selection on the Sync Screen. It's because they changed this value to an 8 instead of an C by blindly following ICE advice.

I have an As-Built database of 40 different vehicles across years, trims, options, and ICE/Lightning. I can see what a typical value might already be for those trucks and make the change recommendation appropriately.
