Question for Prime owners: How sensitive/annoying are the eye cameras, really?

    No, that was the entire list of stuff. I'd probably have to take it in to get software updated/configured, but that was the complete parts list. Current cars have surprisingly few modules compared to the 2000s and early 2010s.

    Upgrade firmware to add features & the flashing hardware are not likely readily available.

    Worst comes to worst, I'd use the excuse to buy a used Mongoose off ebay and get the $70 two-day diagnostic subscription to Global TechStream.

    I've sent an email to a salvage yard that has a Prime to see if I can get the parts for super cheap. I wouldn't install them right away, but I wouldn't mind having them sitting on my shelf in case I get really bored some weekend. :)

    Drive the camera crazy with a little makeup.
