Pfff, it's well known that gadgets make your car lighter, faster and more attractive to the opposite sex!

Not even used the parking sensors yet, the car is that short, but I'll never pass up the opportunity to get some additional tech to play with :)

So am i right in thinking you have the SZ5 with dash screen.

And I'm assuming when you put the car into reverse the camera picture comes onto the screen automatically?

Call me silly.......But I'm wondering how it knows when you've engaged reverse

Thanks in advance Dave,

Andy.

Andy - I think it's down to having it hooked into the reversing lamp. When that lights up, it kicks the camera into life.
