USA 360/Panoramic Camera?

Can anyone confirm that they were able to order a Panoramic Backup Camera on their GLK? When I build a new GLK, there are no options for it, but a few posts suggesting that it's a special order.

Yes, my 2014 US-spec GLK has the Surround View (360 degree) camera. It was a special order option for the 2014 model year but it is a regular option for 2015. mbusa.com hasn't been updated for the 2015 GLK yet so it's not showing up in the "Build Your Own."

I ordered my 2015 GLK350 a few weeks ago. The Surround View (code 501) was included in the Parking Assistance Package. Code 996. Hope this helps..

I have the 360 surround camera, too. It is now a must have on any future vehicle we purchase.

Yep, love it. Just wish there were a way to enable it while driving!

Yep, doesn't work over 30 km/h as per the manual. I'm sure there is a way to defeat it, but I'm not quite that determined!
