    Looking to add second prius to family .
    Does the Prius C , in any trim , have the backup camera included in the tech package?
    (our 2010 prius 3 with nav pack has the back up camera and we love it! )

    IIRC - No. I too wish it had a back up camera - might have one installed after market.

    I think they don't have this option.

    anyone know if I can link the aftermarket camera to the Nav monitor?

    I don't want to put a extra monitor for that.

    IIRC trim #3 and above has the camera

    Addendum: I appear to have this wrong. Sorry for the confusion

    I just test drove the C tonight in a package three and four. No camera. It's missing that and homelink. Those are really the only "major" things I felt were missing. Loooved the car! Can't wait to get mine :)

    Does it have extended sun visors for when the sun is on the drivers left side?

    please put up as much detail as you can about the installation, I want to do the same thing myself as soon as I pick up my C.

    Thanks ahead of time!

    since entune has backup camera usually, i wonder if someone will take out their unit and see if it actually has backup camera input :).
