I have a backup camera and it displays on the Pioneer audio system, very helpful.

My wife's Volvo XC60 crossover has a backup camera plus rear AND front sensors (with a graphic display) in combination they REALLY make a difference in close quarters maneuvering. Amazon has quite a selection of affordable DIY sensor kits but I've yet to pull the trigger. I really ought to act on this since I've nearly hit my Stillen front lip/splitter on curbs a couple of times. Based on my experience with the Volvo you can get spoiled by the sensors such that when I'm in the Z I'm a bit paranoid about curbs and parking bumpers.
