It should come from the factory like that, maybe that will be an update in the future.

This module is supposed to provide that view without stopping the vehicle, shifting into reverse and then back into drive.
I figure that it's too late for you, but it might be useful for others to know that the shift into R is unnecessary if I understand correctly. Hit the star button with 360 set as favorite. Then push down on the rotary control dial. This gives the split view I think you want. It will only do so below a certain mph, maybe 5 mph.

GLS550, Palladium Silver/Saddle
Mine comes up when I press and hold the Vehicle button on the dash if under ~5mph. Very helpful to guide into parking spots and car wash tracks! Not sure whether faster than hitting a programmed star button then selecting, but certainly simpler for me.
