Sorry long thread title. Only owned this car a few weeks and still figuring out this nav unit.

Can someone confirm if the 370gt has the reverse beeping proximity thingy ? I know the g37 has it. Also I saw the auto folding rear view mirrors on some of the 370gt coupes I test drove. Is this an option ? Does anyone know if these are on the 370gt sedans aswell ? I can't seem to find either of these features on my sedan.

Another question, how do I look through the front camera and the camera on the driver side rear view mirror ? I can only see through the one on the passengers side by pressing the button on the top right of my ked pad cluster.

FYI its a 2008 sedan type S.

Hopefully those in the know can help out.

2008 sedan should be 350GT.

There is only one camera on the passenger side mirror, no front camera.

Folding mirrors are not auto, you need to press the button on the driver side door panel where the window switches are. Unless those that has the Tech pack auto folds....

You can look at your rear bumper....are there circle dots around the bumper? Should be 4-6 of them.....else you don't have any.

No the v36 sedan 350gt was 2006-2008 5speed. Sedan 370gt 2008 onwards in 7speed.

I don't see any dots on my rear bumper. Guess I don't have that option then.

Here is my front camera. Mounted dead centre in front of the grille. No idea how to access it, would be handy as I have to park super close to missus car on driveway sometimes.

370GT sedan was introduced in December 2008 as 2009 model year, so you are both correct....

Ah, the blind junction camera.... My 370gt sedan also has one. Turned on by a button next to my seat heaters..

My mirrors also fold on locking, controlled by a button under the steering column.

Car beeps in reverse, as all Japan domestic cars do, but no sensors. However there is the camera with the prediction lines that move with the steering...

This is good to hear. Although I don't know if I have heated seats or where the button would normally be for them lol. Can you tell me where the button is please ?

I will check under my steering column for any switches but I don't recall ever seeing anything under there.

This wont really help park up close as this is a split view intersection camera which helps when you are not able to clearly see both sides of traffic before entering an intersection. Wifes car has the same camera and yes its located just under gear shifter, it was a aftermarket dealer option not a factory one as factory ones are built into the front bumper bar. Mirrors will fold on locking the car if you got the extra security package which includes a small red light on the right side of the start/stop engine switch, a small button next to vdc/afs buttons which is to turn on/off mirror tilting while reversing and also small ultra sonic sensors somewhere on the corners of the front windows. If you have these features your mirrors should be folding in when u lock the car :)

No tilting on reversing for me, will need to look for that button... I loved that feature on my Stages.. Got the rest as described with my remote starter alarm security package.

Ok this whole time I was thinking there was a camera in each headlight looking out at 45deg angle. I even had someone look at the screen whilst I looked at the headlight and I was in full view lol. Man I feel like a lemon now. Its the little picture on the button that threw me off. It's exactly where nickcorr described but the button shows the field of view coming from the headlights. So naturally I just assumed there were cameras in there ! :rofl2:

This camera must have a serious fish eye lens !

Hi there, I have a 370GT SP sedan, April 09 model that has folding mirrors with a button on the door cluster, the seat heaters are on the cluster in the center console between the seats with a snow button in the middle which effectively starts the auto trans in 2nd to avoid spin. As far as cameras go it only has rear and side no front one as you mentioned. Hope this helps, and I have to say these cars are amazing tech for the price, love mine :)

    • Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.
    • Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
    • I've been quietly following this thread for ages, but this one got me. Since my ADHD diagnosis (and associated learnings and prescription) I'm way less inclined to wade into forum yarns when there are better things to do with my time, as half the time I'd end up in some kind of forum debate even if that wasn't my intention. I've not lost the ADHD "superpowers", just am a lot better at directing my hyperfocus into slightly more constructive things, but haven't stopped quietly lurking in here in my spare time.  
    • Stripped the tank down and gave it a good scrub. It came up really good! Not sure if I'll just put it back in like that or give it a blackening treatment (such as Bowdens The Black Box). That might give it a matte look so might just run it as is.     
    • @MBS206 Ha ha, yeah ADHD is a daily battle to not get drawn in to doing things you want to do that you know you shouldn't do!  Every single time I walk into my shed I end up doing something I started the day having zero intention of doing! I keep mentioning the 1 step forward, 3 steps back scenario and I'm tipping people that are blessed with ADHD (yes, blessed) are the worst at that!
