why do you need a back-up camera in a maxima? It's not like it's a Suburban or something...

real men use mirrors.

as said above you an just use a switch to ground it out and turn it on. i plan on adding another camera and a switch to choose between rear view camera and front parking cam.

a backup camera is definitly a neat feature. its very bling haha. I think its cool that you can back up a car worry free. I know my car very well and i have no problem backing it up, but after driving all the lexus, infiniti and whatever, at work. It really is a convenient tool when reversing close to something. I like it much more than the parktronic sensors in bmws, because you actually see, not hear a beep.

I've been parallel parking quite often for 15 years. I can't recall ever bumping another car (except when I used to do it on purpose in my beater Acura when people would park too close).

You people need to get some parking skills.....

i'm with you reeloop and 00beauty...a back up camera is more for bling bling but comes in handy when you need it. don't let anyone on the org change your mind about it. your car do what you want.
