M37 Rear Parking Sensors - Anyone Installed Them?

[rogerdodger]

Hi Guys:

About to order the M37 and can't believe that Infiniti do not offer an option of rear parking sensors. The dealer said that Infiniti does not even offer them as an aftermarket kit, so they will not install them.

Anybody buy and install sensors and can offer advice on best brand and installation time/difficulty?

Thanks - Roger

Why Do You Need The Rear Sonar If You Have The Rear Backup Camera With Predictive Line Course? Just Curious.

Roger: I was thinking the same thing? The "G" has it, so why not the "flagship"? I guess you can get used to how far the rear of the car is from hitting things with experience with the wide angle camera? We are also in the potential buyer category.
My concerns are the dealer is 2 hrs away, and I thought the acceleration was not very smooth for a 7 speed auto vs the Lexus and BMW. (And the standard by which I judge all cars: my old 97 740il)
My wife's new car, so it really is her decision.

I have the same question. The M already has the backup camera. Personal preference I guess but to me, the camera is better than sensors.
