Install Homelink Garage Door Opener Somewhere on the Dash

[LHoffmanjr22]

I have seen others on here change out the mirror for one with Homelink in a Lightning so they have a built in garage door opener, but I was wondering if anyone had ever taken the same module that is in the visor of Lariat and above models and built that into the dashboard? From my understanding, the trims below the Lariat don't have any power run to the visor (no mirror lights) so putting it there isn't an option. I imagine it would be a lot of work, and even include some cutting to make the opening, but the biggest question is getting power to the unit.

Has anyone done this, or have any experience with what might need to be done? This is what I found online for the module. Since the Lightning doesn't have the 4x4 selector by the trailer brake, I thought that might be a good opening to put something like this.

This is what I found online for the module:

Do certain trim levels not have homelink? Or did Ford remove homelink for MY 2024?

Our 2023 Lariat has it on the driver's sun visor.

I think only Lariat and above have it in the visor. For trims below that it’s not even an option. It was available on my ‘24 Flash.
