360 parking for GLE-Class SUV. Eyes wide open.

You know the deal, "big cars, small parking lots." It's a real struggle anywhere, let alone in Hong Kong where parking spaces are compact and scarce. One wrong move and you're looking at unnecessary dents on your car and your wallet.
But hey, here's a tip: check out the GLE-Class V167 owner in the pic who upgraded their ride with a fancy 360° parking assistance system straight from the factory.

This elegant GLE-Class V167 got fitted with a complete set of OEM 360° parking cameras, including front, side, and mirror cameras, a computer module, and all the necessary cables. Oh, and don't forget that the grille must have a built-in camera spot.
The upgrade process ain't a walk in the park, though. You gotta remove stuff like the front bumper, door panels, and side mirrors. Once everything's in place, you use the official Mercedes-Benz computer to activate the 360° camera functions and fine-tune the angles.
Trust me, better leave this complex process to the pros who know their factory upgrades.
Now, with all this, you get more than just a bird's-eye view of your surroundings. You can peep the rear, sides, front, and even the rear and front sides all at once. It's like having eyes everywhere!
This multi-angle setup makes parking a breeze for you and your fam. No more blind spots or misjudging distances, so you can avoid those annoying bumps, scrapes, and scratches that come with parking in tight spots.

So, if you're tired of playing parking roulette with your beast of an SUV, consider investing in a factory-installed 360° parking assistance system. It's a game-changer that'll give you peace of mind and make parking a piece of cake.
Here's the product on my site:

Here's the aftermarket front grille similar to the one in the photos:

And here's how it went:

Even if it were $2500, I would never in my life.
Given that I was able to park my uncles 1979 Cadillac DeVille when I was 14 in any tight space, I'm sure as hell able to park a much smaller SUV like the GLE without any aids. Let's face it, we're all old enough to have driven and parked a land-yatch at some point in our life.

Oops thanks for correcting me. I googled the amount but I guess I should have double checked.

Please keep in mind, that the price on my page includes installation and coding, and without those, it would bring it down a few hundred USD

Respectfully, some find it necessary. It can show everything around your car before starting off. So if there is a small child or a pet, that happens to run around or play next to our car, you would see it. It's not only about the skill of parking.

How much do you sell only the front camera? I noticed mine is chipped from rocks but doesn't affect the image at the moment but maybe in the future I might get unlucky.
