Had one in my Avalanche. It was not only a neat thing to have but was quite essential because of the lack of rear view visiability. While it would be neat to have in the vette, I don't really think it will be needed.

Can you post pics of the clarity at night on the monitor? Really appreciate it. I'm seriously thinking about having this done since it is a pretty good thing to have from a safety standpoint.

No problem with visibility to the rear in the Corvette. Now seeing where the nose is when parking is another matter. Seems like you could mount the camera in front of the air dam without it being an obvious eyesore. That would be useful.

I am VERY interested in ANY back-up warning! Where to buy, costs, etc. please.
ALSO, what about an after market light and beeper warning unit? Like in my Caddy. I really love that and am ready to buy one today if there is such a thing. Please advise.
