CMOS 200 is all you need and it looks great on the Nav. Hard to see it from behind the car too.

I've got the rear park assist and after setting my mirrors correctly I don't have any problems backing up. The only problem I have is when reversing out of an angle park, I cant see the traffic coming down the road and a cam isn't going to fix that.

That is primarily what I got my camera for. Coming out of an angled spot is nearly impossible, but the camera fixed that issue.

Great, thank you. And I imagine new software for the Nav system too or no?

I usually prefer to back into spots but this car is making second guess that lol.

No software required, but you do have to enable the camera settings in the Nav service mode. There is a thread for that.

I have the rear fog light wired up to flash in reverse to help out with the blindspot issues.
