Forward Facing Camera for Land Rover & Jaguar
This forward facing camera adds a factory-style front view to your JLR infotainment screen. Direct-fit mount, OEM wiring, and full configuration support for improved front visibility.
Factory-Grade Front Visibility
The forward facing camera gives you a clear view of the area ahead of your vehicle. You activate the camera through the original infotainment screen, and the wide-angle lens displays obstacles, kerbs, and steep approach angles that sit below your normal line of sight. This view proves especially useful when you negotiate tight parking spaces, steep driveways, or off-road sections with limited forward visibility.
LR-Retrofit configures the camera to match original JLR operation. The system integrates with your existing infotainment display, and the camera feed activates automatically at low speed or through the surround camera menu if fitted. The image remains sharp in low light, and the wide-angle optics reduce blind spots at the front of the vehicle.
