Mine is low in width and I prefer parking in ready-to-go mode.<\/li>\n<li>Camera views\/angles can be controlled by Steering-mounted control buttons.<\/li>\n<li>Good daytime visibility and manageable night time visibility too.<\/li>\n<li>Plug and play. No wires cut or external wires hanging around. I got it installed by VW guys before delivery itself and they promised no impact to the warranty.<\/li>\n<li>Has the option to record front camera view, although I haven&#8217;t tried it. So, can double as a dash cam, but the recording might not cover the angles we would want to because of low camera placement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/20230414_142056.jpg\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/20230414_142132.jpg\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/20230414_142149.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h2>Cons:<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Doesn&#8217;t utilise the full 10&#8243; screen real estate. I think views would be much better if it had.<\/li>\n<li>Need to either engage reverse gear or indicators or remote control to start the display. Minor inconvenience.<\/li>\n<li>Settings within the app are not intuitive. Looks like a true translation from Chinese. I couldn&#8217;t make a head or tail of it.<\/li>\n<li>One needs to get used to the distance of objects from the vehicle. I had a couple of incidents where I thought there was enough space but objects were too close. Saved by a whisker. Possibly to do with proper calibration, but not sure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/20230415_174820.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/20230415_174847.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/20230415_174801.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures2023-09\/20230415_174752.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Overall, I am satisfied with the experience.
