Does SYNC 4 allow you to turn the back up camera on while driving on surface streets? I know some, but not many, cars do. I ask because I know the the rear view mirror is blocked with the soft top all the way back.

I know they have the rear view mirror that connects to a camera, just trying to save some money if possible.

Yes , but only at speeds up to 5mph or maybe less.

While off roading and using some of the GOAT modes cameras are available at higher speeds.

Yes. Need this! I use rear camera to park in my garage, check bikes are stable etc. of the last 4 cars I have owned this is the only one that doesn’t give access to the rear camera while in motion.

even at slow speed parking in garage I can get all other cameras, just not the rear camera to check if the garage door will clear…rather odd that the camera is excluded

I added a back up cam mirror to mine yesterday. Got use to the new video mirrors. Pretty easy install. Rubber band over the factory mirror. Added bonus it has a front facing camera. Had the same one in my x3. Good quality mirror. Have to tilt her down with the top off to cut the glare. It records in loops for a dash cam. Can scroll the mirror itself to see more up and down with it. I cut the red trigger wire off and don’t use the gps. Way better unit then what came in my suburban.

None on the road. Just went out and took pics of the video from the mirror. Just put it in front mode. It does front, front/back, and back. Pictures looked a little washed out. Looks better in person. Will take some rolling vids when I get it back out next weekend. Second pic is the phone zoomed in on the mirror.

Power is supplied thru mini usb (the old fat camera one) and runs off of 5 volts. I wired a usb plug behind the passenger kick panel for it and plugged it in to that. Mirror itself is wide enough the front camera to slide next to it. Rear camera I put under the factory rear camera and ran return wire down the passenger side. It comes with a cigarette/mini usb in the box. You could also wire in a cig plug adapter to. If you can get the usb mirror dongle which is suppose to be back in stock this month I believe, you can pull power from the rear view mirror.

It can do back up lines and has adjustments for them.

Quality wise (picture)! it’s better than my suburban and our Escalades video mirror. Fov is huge on it.

Hope you’re still checking this forum. Do you have any photos from your install and where/how you took power? Looking at doing this!!

I ran it down the passenger side and tapped the orange wire. I’ll get a pic of which one tomorrow for you.
