There are a couple of companies that have ways of tying in auxiliary cameras into the console display. The one I've read about is made by https://www.axxessinterfaces.com/product/AX-ADDCAM-FD1 - Axxess Interfaces .

Most are powered in reverse only, wired into the backup light circuit in TV or onto yellow wire in tow connection. I have a 2006 Silverado and mine is powered by left hand reverse light in tail lamp.

Yeah. If you have to use the built-in backup camera circuit that is true. I saw one a few weeks ago that bypasses that. It's made by https://www.axxessinterfaces.com/product/AX-ADDCAM-FD1 - Axxess Interfaces .
