Pimping my D4 XS

Well not really...I just would like to change a couple of things on my 2012 D4 XS.

I really should have bought an HSE, but one wasn't available at the time I needed to buy. But I really would have like a reversing camera and the electric adjustable front seats. I was told that dealers won't retro fit a camera, I need to get an Indy to do it for me. But I wondered if there was a similar taboo with fitting HSE seats in an XS?

I suppose one option would be to PX the XS but the loss is going to be a lot more than the cost of fitting these two items...I guess?

I always take advice from SWMBO. She is always right,even when she's wrong! Laughing

Seriously, Mod or PX ? see if the sums add up and talk about it to SWMBO. Then think about it for a week and then decide. Good luck Thumbs Up

Time to change, you'll never be happy if it's not the car you wanted.

I wouldn't bother with the camera as I find it a distraction and never use it. Much prefer to use the mirrors and parking sensors work out what I'm reversing into.

Trade it in and get an 8sp HSE. They have all the toys you'll ever need.

Rear view Cameras are fantastic, I would never call them a distraction?
I reverse using the mirrors but a quick glance at it helps spot any issues. I also notice from driving other cars that if the reversing sensors beep you can't have a quick look of the screen to see what you've missed.

It's also very cool for hitching a trailer- drop the suspension reverse onto the hitch - raise suspension job done.

Yes the camera is very handy for trailer hitch up. Would live without it now!
