I cleared the headlights on a 2011 TSX today and i noticed it had the reverse grid. How do i turn it on for my 2009? or does it not have it ?

 

have you thought about putting colored electric tape on your nav screen?

 

Anyone with a brain know how to do it?

 

what if you wore reading glasses with reverse grid lines painted onto them? then you would always see the reverse grid

 

^ LOL

i think its a 11' only thing

 

Just because a 2011 gets the lines, it doesn't mean that preceding years will get them too. If you had them, they would automatically show up (they are not easter eggs that have to be discovered and unlocked).

If you want the lines, you will have to replace the camera with an aftermarket camera, some of which have the lines. I personally hate the lines, so I installed one without them in my 06 TSX.

 

Again another dumb ass response. Ya must be a 2011 thing. its cool thanks for the feedback

 

^It's only on the 2011 model.

 

poor dude doesn't know how to laugh..

 

i know how to laugh its just when the kid posts assinine stupid shit almost 5 times a day it just gets old. maybe i have to be 17 to accept his humor

 

16. i am 16 years old.

 

That says it all

 

u must be the youngest person to get in dental school then

 

doogie howser DMD, reporting for duty!

 

AFAIK the lines can be turned off but i've yet to find out how. The dealer ASKED if I wanted to have them on. They are useful in tight spaces.

Must be a 2011 thing...Wish my 2009 had that though it is really cool and im jealous of the new high res. navi screen

 

can someone post a picture of how the grids in the '11 look? I would like to see if it really makes a difference.

 

If its anything like the ones on my moms 2009 TL, the lines really really great and they move with the steering wheel so you can see exactly where your car is going.

 

ya i know that but does the 2009 tsx have that! lol

 

Ecko, have you ever considered buying a 2009 TL?

 

I dont even have a TSX but the answer is loud and clear.
the 2011's have a different back up camera set up.

sorry echo. you could try what was suggested and purchase a new camera.
But I would research into it a lot more, first.

 

Yeah, my 2010 doesn't even have it. There is a video on youtube for the 2011 one in a wagon. From the looks of it, the wagon really needs it because you can't see crap behind it.

I can't wait until the 2014 tsx comes out so I can see what goodies pop up in the 2010...lol

I wonder if the 2011 camera is compatible with the 2009/2010 system. If not, there are aftermarket cameras that can do it. They can even modify the image to show the driver what an overhead view would look like, a split view to look for pedestrians, etc.

 

Here is the video I think SocaliTrogan is referring to. I would also be interested in knowing what would be involved with upgrading the 2009/2010 to 2011 Nav.

This other Acura video looks like someone replaced the facotry Nav with a Kenwood. Multiple cameras installed and has the ability to toggle between them.
