QUOTE(tomokomiki @ Nov 26 2014, 06:00 PM) Hopefully I can find out this Saturday. I have a project in Ipoh, need to be there every Saturday. Btw, I really want to install an In-car camera. Will it void my warranty? I had an incident 2 years ago. On a weekday, at approximately 8pm, a quiet residence area. A motorcyclist reverse his vehicle in front of traffic light and hit my front bumper. He get down from his bike and walk towards me and start shouting at me. Luckily the light turn green and there was no car on my left, so I accelerate and leave the scene. Since then, I wanted an In-car camera. Yes the in-car camera might be useful, but I think you should get with the recorder ones...they come with or without reverse camera but you need to buy the camera, PLSE don't get the wireless ones, they may run out of batt anytime without warning and during the time when you actually wants it to record, furthermore sometimes it cant read your signal just like our phone wifi when the signal is weak, only thing is good is less wires to install and cost rm450+, you have 02 pods hanging out...one for receiving and one for sending the signal, u might attract unwanted breakin of your car when the thief can notice this standing infront of your windscreen to steal it, you can hide the pods on your rooftop beneath the roof covers but you may find it difficult to change batteries when they go weak...might have to remove the cover yourself, so, its entirely up to you....warranty, well if you mess up the Ecu unit then it will void warranty but very little chances for that

The reverse camera has a red wire cable, the shops will connect it with the wires from your 12V reverse lights, when the car is in reverse gear it will activate the reverse camera as well, NO wires cut Tissue box issue...get the clip on type when you can clip on to the back of your seat pocket, once finish just filled it up, pvc leather only rm3...these are image[attachmentid=4235565][attachmentid=4235567]

Sound system has room to improve. I can't get the kick sensor to work sometimes , feet too small?  fuel consumption quite high....

QUOTE(6216 @ Apr 14 2014, 02:16 PM) I only use a stand alone GPS or my phone. How often do you adjust your seats and if you need a reverse cam to drive, you're not there yet. Talk kok. My previous car had no reverse cam i thought it was fine. Now my merc has a reverse cam and its so easy to park now . Its about convenience. And Ford cars never ever have good FC based on my experience.
