Rear parking camera

[cupra-kiz]

Need your help fellow Cupra 3 owners.

I dont have a reversing camera on the 300 and would like to add this in.
Firstly can you please post some pictures of where and how the camera is mounted on your vehicle. Assuming you have a factory camera and not something from ebay.

Secondly if anyone has retro fitted one and how difficult was it.
Thank you in advance

the single most pointless waste of time addition to the Cupra is the rear view camera, the 1st 5mins of driving in wet and it's covered in crap and useless. they should have included a washer for it like on other VAG cars..

Interesting thought, maybe due to location being so low. Maybe seat should have put it in the rear badge like the Golf.
Maybe it's not worth spending the money to have this done.

Thank you for your honest opinion

Defeats the object somewhat; might as well take a look around the car for obstructions whilst outside and save yourself a few quid!

Useless when roads are wet or salt/grit has been spread. Very poor location on ST Leon/Cupra.

The one on our 3 series estate is just as bad; located higher up, but the camera strobes when adjusting to low light levels.
