360 bird eye camera system
Has anyone installed one of these 360 bird eye camera systems on their F-Type?

I searched the threads, but didn't find anything.
I see a few dash cam threads, but none on the 4 camera overhead view.

I fitted one a few years ago. It works ok; I mainly really use it when navigating car parks to make sure I don't kerb the wheels.
The front camera is mounted to the lower bit of the front grill just above the splitter, the sides under the wing mirrors and the rear is on the upper rear valance about 4" under the factory camera.
I used a latching relay to switch it with the factory reverse camera. The relay was controlled by fitting the folding roof switch to my coupe (forward switches to the 360 cam, and backwards switches to the factory rear cam). You don't need to do that, it is just personal preference because having aftermarket buttons mounted in my cars bugs me.
The software is a bit of a pain to change the views on, so I leave it set to the forward camera and the 360 camera split 50/50% all the time.
Newer camera systems may have better software. The one in that YouTube video looks better.
