Exclamation Adding Parking Assistance 2013 (W212) E350 ???

I have a question. Will adding a aftermarket parking assist system void my CPO/regular warranty? I have a 2013 E350 4MATIC. I live in the city, so parking is a pain! I would have a loved to get parktronic, but wasn't able to. I'm going to talk to safeandsound store who will do the job.

or

I will get parking sensors on the front and back which will come with a LED Bar lighting up when getting close to anything.

I really would like video integration though. Any advice would be awesome! Thanks!

Wow, the camera graphics look very outdated compared to the Mercedes Eagle View system.

Could that Mercedes eagle view system be installed if I could get the parts?

Everything could be possible. But the added effort and cost would make is questionable from a practical point of view. It would be much easier and cheaper to trade your car and get one with all options you want.
Not to discourage you but I would love to see if you could actually do it.

I've got the 360 / bird eye view, but really do not need it at all. just the rear camera does the job well enough. I never use parktronic, cos it only works when there's enough space, and thus easy to park yourself...

Like someone said, anything is possible if your willing to throw the money at it. But seems like you need a ton of components. Senors, cameras, and integration of the system. How much upside would you be if you were to trade it in ? If it is around 6-7k or less i would trade it in because honestly i dont think you will ever be happy with afternarket systems.

I think so too. The parktronic is not perfect as demonstrated in these examples. As for third party systems, I advice not to spend money on them.
