I have van. Now I'm waiting for an assessment of whether the reversing camera can be installed without a new head unit ๐Ÿคž

It is nice sitting up high and being able to see further, but it will take a while to get used to primarily using the side mirrors. I have so far managed to avoid turning on the windscreen wipers instead of the blinkers.

Edit: this is taking much longer than anticipated.

2nd Edit: I will need a new head unit. The good news is they can do it tomorrow, so will be able to back more confidently very soon. I did manage to back into my carport without too much trouble when I got home, although the sensors' beeping adds a new feeling of drama to the process.

if your existing headunit doesnt have carplay/android auto just replace the headunit anyway. its a game changer!
