Garage Door Homelink in the XLT?

[gmarcucio]

Has anyone installed any type of garage door Homelink into their XLT? When I had my Maverick I installed a Kia rear view mirror that had compass and Homelink built into it and wired power to it from the overhead console by the dome lamps. I'm looking to do something like this with my Ranger. I would even consider a visor mounted homelink. Just trying to see what other people have done here.

I'll just leave this here. Gentex is an OEM supplier.

I went the other way and got my garage door to work with carplay;

It works fairly well; better for whatever reason when i'm coming home then when i leave (i think it might be due to the handoff from WIFI to carplay wifi at a spot where i dont have great LTE/5G coverage...)

Do you have to use your phone to operate it?

Its got a button that comes up on the carplay app paned window when you are close to home
