Nitesh i inquired about the same at dealership during the delivery of my Polo they have only audio alert rear parking sensor at that time, i also love to have rear view camera in my Polo [:)]

You can get that installed from aftermarket accessories shop but remember any wire cut can void VW warranty and you may also face difficulties claiming insurance due to any electrical fire if you get proper connectors then you can take chances.

Hi polotdicl, still i am happy with my stock ICE my four speakers fitted in doors are doing well currently.

For music buff with very high taste they might not be sufficient, so i still have to search for woofers and there compatibility with my stock ICE.

Shailinder rear view camera will give you this view whenever reverse gear is engaged and i think this would be quite useful tool for parking in tight spots. What say?

Hi Tough Guy, the rear view camera is good and very use full. I have reverse parking sensors with only sound, and that sound is not audible when the reverse gear is used because of the reverse horn have to pedant on the side view and rear view mirrors. It is very difficult to park the vehicle with out any help. Is that rear view camera company fitted ? or aftermarket is it integrated with the stock ICE or separate screen will be provided ? And price of that ?

Well, I am not interested in rear view camera coz my current sound alert parking sensor proves to be quite helpful. But still, I am a bit keen to know, does the rear view camera give good visibility at night or is it no visibility at all?

Hi,

This is not installed in my Polo, i saw this over internet installed in a Hyundai Verna and working fine, i am also interested in something like this but looking for installation without any wire cut.

Perfect Touchguy any idea about the colour coded box Red, Yellow and Green. What are they for ?

Moreover, to me reverse camera should be used in those cars with high boot (like sedans) wherein, it is difficult to judge the position at the back even with the help of rear view mirror. Otherwise it is all about looks or oooh factor and nothing more.

Read your post # 350, there you will see the image having Red, Yellow and Green boxes.

Bolts are looking awesome but I would rather prefer VW alloys over the bolts.

I also have the key chain and valves.

The valves are cool, go ahead and buy them. Instead try locating blue valves on ebay, they would look better on your white polo.

Someone has already stolen a valve from a tyre of mine, damn the chindi chor. So beware as the valves can easily be stolen.

I will try to upload pics of the valves on tyre today, I am just not getting enough time to update my ownerships review.

Also have a look at steering chrome for polo. I have ordered this:
eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace

It should reach me in about two weeks. A bit too much in price though.

I think they are for distance, rear view camera displays 10-15feet distance on screen which they distributed in different blocks of color green for safer distance, yellow block for caution and red clock for danger.

They are looking nice, but i am a no fan of chrome prefers less chrome in my car else will surely consider this too.
