Hi all, well a friend of mine got a new car that came with reversing camera,when you put it in reverse the pannel in center of dash turns into a monitor, and it's really easy to see how close you are to things and what is behind you.
i would love one in the i30. can you get them?

A couple of the Korean pics show rearcams fitted. Pretty sure you can get wireless cams.

Is that friend of yours a girl by any chance? As I see it only a girl would want/need one :P

Hi John... You can get wireless reversing cameras from Autobarn and Supercheap for between $200 & $300 depending on the model at that price you only get a 3.5" screen usually (Autobarn seems to have them in their catalogues more than Supercheap)

Geez you're a stirrer Steve  :lol:

Edit.. Dick Smith have a couple (plenty available on the net...)

My satnav came with a reversing camera (Binatone T430). I think it is discontinued but I'm sure there are other similar models out there.

I think the Sat Nav with an integrated wireless reversing camera are a brilliant idea..

I would have got one of those if I had realised they were available when I got my Mio...

Hey Shambles, no its a bloke m8, :lol: too many small children get killed when cars reverse here so they class it as saftly. you can't see what is right behind the i30 i think it has poor rear view. i'm used to useing side mirrors to reverse but after seeing just how good this system that came stock from factory on a turbo 6 territory i liked it. at first i thought it would be hard to judge with but was not the case. tail gating is illegal here too.
at least in this state

that sounds good Dazz, i think one in the pop up dashtop compartment would be good, i don't like touching things with my rear bumper i always give the rear a lot of clearance as no sensore they are useless to me, my friend had a rear tow bar and the camera showed it up clear and i put that territory into a really tight parking space with out touching the car behind it, was easy.

It's only money, and it will stop you from reversing into your new house and damaging it.
Would she buy that, do you think?
