Enjoy although I will tell you the drive home is a bit unnerving….

Everyone around you is looking a you…

Note: you can turn the rear view mirror camera off and have it function as a normal mirror which I highly advise because when in camera mode the drastic difference in perspective looking forward vs rearward is really distracting and takes some getting to.

Congratulations.

As posted above the camera rearview mirror takes a little getting used to. Not a big deal, just asomething you need to be aware of.
