dabeachman,

When I did mine it was automatically on when put in reverse; I don't recall having to go in to the command system and activate or anything as its an add-on module.

Niceguyftx, I would call navicks directly and ask them; I don't see why it wouldn't work but I'm no expert.

Your first post showed the same screen I have with no rear view camera option.
Did you have to go to any menus and select camera or update software?
Did the module bring up menus or was it not even an issue?
It wasn't an issue, the module took care of everything. There is a menu you can access on the module itself to change whether you see the lines, but I didn't make any changes.

EDIT, reading the thread again, I guess I did make one change in the menu, I removed the small car from the upper corner of the screen. You put the car in reverse and hit the clear button to get into the menu. Also note that someone posted a much cheaper module that worked fine for him.

Tim,

Just wanted to reach out about the module you used as I'm considering it. Were you able to easily change the display language to English as opposed to the Chinese like it shows in the description? Also were you able to remove the little car icon in the display as the OP did? I'd like to save a little money compared to the NAVIKS module but if this one can't be changed to English instead of Chinese and still has the little car icon it might just push me over the edge to spend a little more and get the NAVIKS. Thanks!

Would be great to have that info and i wonder if this module will work with a '14 Audio20 (Becker nav) model? Didn't get a chance to remove the head unit so i don't know if it says NTG4.5 or 4.7 on my car.
Also, has anyone used one of those built-in
"factory" like rear view camera "factory" like rear view camera
?

That's the style of camera I'm looking at as well.

Thanks Hem1tp for the lead.

I bought the same kit (Mercedes Benz C Class W204 NTG4.5 iPas Parking Camera Interface Front/Back View) and am installing it on our 2015 GLK with NTG4.5 V2 Command Module. (Ref https://www.ebay.com/itm/181657619118?rmvSB=true )

I have a couple of questions.

1) What do you connect the blue module wire to? i.e. Where is the "360 triggered" wire to be found?

2) Does the white wire connect to any 12v+ lead or just the 12v+ from the camera?

Thanks much.
