Is it possible to order the front and side-mirror cameras independently from dealer, and self-install, or are those parts VIN restricted?

Your reply is pretty much what I suspected the response to be...Thanks for the confirmationThe cameras are the easy part. The hard part is replacing the vast majority of the electronics inside the vehicle to support the cameras and all of the programming steps that probably wouldn't work since the VIN doesn't match up.
It would be prohibitively expensive to do. If you already have a Mid package Bronco it would honestly be cheaper to order a High package Bronco and trade in one Bronco for the other once it comes in.
Order an Everglades for $55,oooI just wish I had the larger display. Ah well.

Yeah that's what I'd like to explore. I will keep searching for threads. Coming from an engineering background, but no automotive engineering experience, I would guess the computer hardware is similar/same with a change in camera/screen hardware and software loads. I would never replace computer modules. I would however try to reflash things or use Forscan to enable features if the underlying hardware was added to make it work. For example, if no wiring harnesses were in my bronco to make this happen, I would pivot to third party solutions.I seem to recall when someone tried this last time the problem was with the entertainment control module not working with the bigger screen.
I believe the thread was on here. It’s been a while and don’t think there have been any updates.
I don’t remember if he tried a different module as well, that may have been where they stopped to try again later. Compatibility between those modules may mean it’s just not possible. Not to mention, even if you say price is no object, it will get extremely expensive replacing all the computers.
