Default Front Camera

Does anyone know if my 2015 with factory NAV can be retrofitted with a front camera and operate like the newer vettes?

I remember reading that someone tried retrofitting grille cameras on a ‘14. He was able to hardwire the harnesses, but ran into software issues. I don’t believe that he was able to get them to work on the OEM HU. Hopefully someone else will chime in...

Nope, you need to go aftermarket. I used a product called NavTool. To install a front camera to display on your NAV screen you would need:

Navtool ~$350
Camera ~$30
HDMI Cord ~$20
HDMI adapter ~$25


You can do it in your garage in about 4-6 hours and a few beers.


Here's a thread that will give links to the parts and pictures of the install. THe thread is huge!
