    Title say's it all. A back-up camera for the ETK, since it has the navigation system, it looks like there could be a back-up camera. (The car is also filled with blind-spots :rolleyes:) I don't know if it's possible, though. Here's a concept of what it would look like. (sorry for the bad example, I used Paint, hope you get the idea)

    That sounds like a good idea. How about putting on some for the other modern cars?

    I don't see how, though.

    Well, the SBR4 has a bad rear view to see out of, so it would actually be pretty useful.

    This is a cool idea, but there is one problem. Look in the mirror of any car, what do you see? Almost nothing huh? We would have to get a functional mirror before even thinking about doing this.

    We have to get GPS in the SBR first.

    We do. Ever heard of dynamic reflections? I bet with some scripting work, this could work. Something like when the reverse gear is selected, it spawns a square highly reflective part over the display. (Think that would work, not a big programmer so wouldn't know.)

    Yeah, I guess bringing up the dynamic reflections can do the trick, they only reflect things part of the map at the moment.

    You can put navigation on cars. It is in the parts selector.
