In the manual it states the cars have this, anyone familiar with it and how well does it work ?

Legend · 07-27-2009, 12:48 PM

Does not have the function...it's a copy and paste from another car/manual.

Maybe in 2011 or later models it will be available, but not for 2010.

This is a bit of a long shot here, but when and if it does come out. Would it be possible to purchase from GM and install on our cars? I have heard the bumper has the small circles in them already....

i know that other cars can have it installed as a dealer assessory, so i am hoping the camaro will be no different

Ah .... So then that wasn't the real deal manual that was posted for download... Too bad, was hoping to get a jump start on reading before I actually got mine....

The actual manual from the car has the same copy/paste issues.

I think it is the real manual, this car just does not have that feature.

I read in another thread that this was an option that might possibly be in the camaros produced later this year or possibly the 2011 model.

It would be really great if we could get it as an installed accessory at a later date. I wonder how much something like that would cost?

That's not too bad. I wouldn't want to pay more than $300. The real question is, if we actually had it on the Camaro,would it work as well as it claims?

Works great on my Fusion, I absolutely love it. If I had it on the Camaro, I would want it to be a little more hidden though... I really hate those ugly dots on the bumper

Then learn to back up?

=p

Depends on how well your mirrors work :-)

It's a technical sensor for the blind spot. Has nothing to do with your skills. It's just giving you info it's not doing any vehicle control.
