Hi Guys Ive just bought a 2015 65 plate Insignia 2.0 CDTI VX Line and was shocked to see that there is no reversing sensors or camera

After coming from a Juke Nismo RS its a bit of a shock to look at the screen and not see 4 cameras LOL

Does anyone know of a camera that fits in the proper place that will just plug into the head unit

Thanks
Rob

Wow that's a bit of a change saw the nismo at autosport a few years ago an absolute beast, there are loads of aftermarket camera systems for the insignia some of the ebay ones have good reviews and work with most of the insignia operating systems so have a look there, its an easy fit the attachments link into the number plate lights and wiring is fairly simple. car communications and ray smith also sell well reviewed versions.

parking sensors are an easy fit in some insgnia's wiring is there some not but very easy to fit, vauxhall kindly imprinted the holes for the mounting points inside the rear bumper so easy to get them in the right place and level

Thanks for that Ill get on to the camera tomorrow
Does the rear bumper have to come off to see the position inprints or can they be seen from underneath

The Nismo was a beastie it was a 15 plate do 218 bhp std had a Injen full induction kit on it full Remus decat exhaust, baileys dump valve and a adjustable boost solenoid, remapped it made 244.6 BHP but is was terrible in traffic and best I could get around town was 28,7

the Insignia is auto and im getting 44mpg on the same commute !!
made sense to trade really

unfortunately yes its a bumper off job but its not a hard job to as the bumper plastic just pulls away, not like in the old days, there's bound to be guides on youtube.

thats a good gain on standard bhp,
