Any idea why I have 2 cameras on the front of my grill and the tech for this isn't supported until later models?

One of two possible reasons:

1. Grille was replaced at some point.
2. NavTool device was added to provide parking camera display. Look up under the driver side dash by the side wall for a little black box.

Someone purchased the 2016 dual camera setup but most likely never completed the wiring job, One wide-angle camera is all you need, like all new cars have. Corvette is the only car ever produced with two front cameras.

Aww makes sense, and thanks! Not sure why I didn't think of that. It probably was replaced. I don't see any black box though.

Hard to see it pic for sure, but those do not look like factory cameras... they just look stuck on there.. Here is a pic of the Z06 cameras.. they are in the grill not just tacked on the grill..

It's definitely not a Z06 grille. It seem to be on there pretty solid as part of the grille molding in at the top and bottom of the grille. Tried to take a better pic but crappy lighting in my garage.

Wherever those cameras came from, they were certainly not from the factory. Would be interesting to see if you could make them work on your 2014.
