    Thinking how this could work? How would the noise go off if it's not in reverse?

    Haven't extensively explored it, but they sell them on Amazon, etc. and I've seen it stock in a new Explorer rental where it was gauged to the distance of the object just like the rear system, but it also had a visual representation of proximity on the car navi/audio display.

    I like the idea. I ended up in a bush a few weeks ago because of my bad judgement and wasn't to pleased about that.

    Great I can't pm now.
    Are you OK doing electrical wiring?
    If u buy the harness I can do all the setup on it and then you plug it in you would be set.

    Bump for clarification I just purchased a 2020 with advanced tech package. Backing up makes sound with the two rear sonars but front I just have the multi terrain camera

    ensuring there’s no way to turn on any sounds or lines besides camera up front without going after market?

    It's a shame as I have them on my Lexus RX350 and they work really well in tights spots
