Front parking sensors and front camera

I went to the dealership to ask them if G37coupe nav radio is the same as EX's radio. If so it would be possible to install the front camera and the front parking sensors in the coupe! Unfortunately they could not answer. I've heard there is an interface connecting the front camera to the navigation system radio. Anybody with any ideas if this could be done? It would be a great help to save those low lips from being scraped on occasions. I've seen the sensors on Sams car I wonder if this is some Mid-East only option?

Even if the radio is the same the wiring wouldn't be in place for it so you'd have to wire everything up. I'm sure you could do this but how much are you looking to spend becuase this won't be cheap.

it would be just a double wire going from the front to the navigation, simple DIY. Question is if the coupes radio has an input for the front camera or maybe it is the only camera input and just a dif interface they use to hookup the front camera or the sensors.

I'll have a look down there for you next time I take the bumper off to see where all the wiring goes, for the record though, it won't save your lip, the sensors only sense walls, they don't sit low enough to sense curbs. One of my sensors got condensation for some reason which is why I drive with it off all the time now. Backup camera is more than enough for me to be honest, I sure wouldn't mind a camera up front too though

Front and rear parking sensors are available from factory on GCC spec and JDM spec G's. Same goes with the side corners/indicators.
