like the camera one - one thing occurred to me though - camera won't help with higher obstacles such as tree branches - I can see the odd 'oops' in the future where someone relies on the cameras entirely Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Love the bit where you can see two cameras looking down the sides of the D4... makes driving through narrow areas even easier.

I'm sure the kids will love the front camera during stream crossings - "look for the fish on the screen, look for the fish on the screen"! 16 D4 Landmark

Does anyone know if these cameras work all the time, or only in Terrain Response modes?
I would imagine it could be quite distracting trying to get the wing mirror camera to look down 'into' the car next to you at 70mph on the M6

So it does actually work underwater - must be very well sealed (I hope so).
Very useful indeed during flooding conditions so that we do not scratch our beloved D4's on any Smart's or FIAT 500's covered under water.

It might also be useful to note one of the comments on the clip which might come in useful for all those contemplating an aftermarket mod like this
