Has anyone done this?

Beatsonic makes an adapter for 2014+, It looks straight forward ( Front camera and Beat Sonic interface installation experiences - ClubLexus - Lexus Forum Discussion )

Thanks in advance!

Ahh.. ok. It wasn't specified in you post if you were looking for pre-facelift. I do know that plugging in the front camera to the factory harness doesn't work. I have a 2012 and picked up a OEM front camera from eBay. I plugged it in with no results. Still want to try and get this working someday. I think it needs another computer module to work.

so, on the MTS upgrade, in the menus--Mud and Snow... There is an available selection that says "Cam.Position" Is that to use the front camera?

It might be to use the front camera, but it doesn’t active the camera for use. I think there might be some other computer module that needs to be installed. I have both the front camera installed and the MTS module installed, but the front camera doesn’t work.

This would probably be needed

I had my GX460 in the shop for a minor fender bender (someone wanting to share the same space as me in my lane...) so my insurance company gave a Infitiy Q50 rental while it was in the shop. For Inifiy's flagship SUV, I was not impressed. Seats were not comfortable. I spent 10 minutes at the gas station looking for the button for the gas cap latch release. THERE ISN"T ONE! You have to go out and just press on the cover and it opens. No locking gas! No outside temperature and other minor inconveniences. Thus, I couldn't wait to get my baby back!!
So enough about my rant...
What I DID like about it was the dynamic cruise control, AND the 360° cameras!
I would love to have those features on my rig!

I installed the front camera with the beatsonic interface in my 2016. It was pretty straight forward plus I got the "OEM" switch that fit in a blank in the dash. the nice thing is I can also turn on the rear camera at any time.

Infiniti does have a locking fuel door. It locks when the doors are locked. Outside temp is displayed on main gauge display just need to cycle through several screens to get what info you like to see.

Thanks for the info on the Q50. If I owned one, I probably would have poured over the manual and figured out all the little nuances. But one that that can't be changed are the comfort of the seats. Albeit, each person has their own interpretation of what comfortable is, but for my wife and I, the Q50 isn't it. Plus, the thing is massive! My previous overland rig was a 100 series Landcruiser and that was large, but that Infinity made my 4" lifted Landcruiser with 35" M/T tires feel like a mini truck.

No, nothing yet

Anybody successfully add a front camera to a pre 2014 without spending money on Grom. I just order mts module and not sure if i also need 86792-60360 along with of course a front camera. Have done a bunch of searches but no answer.

I have used ECU you mention, stock front camera, grill, and mirror cameras as well. Some year I will get around to it. Best thread for info on topic is at CL
