AMG GT C Front Camera

I see that the 2020 cars are equipped with a front camera. Does anyone know if this can be retrofitted to earlier GTs. If yes, what would be the cost? With the low front end visibility I would love to have a front camera for parking. I think it is a manner of time before I pull too fall forward and hit a parking curb.

Most likely possible. There is a shop in Toronto called MB House that does some pretty fantastic work. They have it listed for $550 for 5hr install.

Thanks, I will give MB House a call. I live in Florida, but hopefully they will give me some guidance. Best case is their camera setup integrates with the AMG software and the image shows on the car's display. Of course I would have the work done here in Florida.

Im 99% sure that is how it is integrated. I think there is a 3rd party module/box you can install yourself too and it adds the seamless integration camera feature as well, but I dont remember where which mbworld subforum I saw it in.

Let us know what MB House says

Talked with MB House today. The front camera setup they offer is an after market module. It will integrate with the AMG GT center display. They are willing to sell the module for $470 Canadian plus shipping. Additionally, they would provide instructions and talk to you or your installer on how to install the module.

All that said, I believe I will hold off for now. I don't have an installer that I really would trust to do the work. I would hate for this installation to screw up the electronics of the car. If others have experience in installing this module I would love to hear from you.

Any shops in USA offers similar services to MB House ? ECO start/stop remember last setting would be wonderful.
