MMC ILX OEM back-up sensors

Does anyone have the back-up sensors installed on their 16+ ILX? My ILX is the first car I've owned without back-up sensors and I feel I'm backing up blind all the time. Is there anything of note about them? I know there won't be any sort of fancy graphical display but is there any user control at all? For example, can the volume be adjusted, or the unit turned off?

If they work like they did in my 2014 RLX Advanced, then all you get is a button on the lower dash area to toggle them on/off. No other customization options.

My RLX also showed a "soundwave" icon on either the left, middle or right side of the backup camera view to indicate which sensor was being triggered by an obstacle. Not sure if the ILX gets the same visuals as part of the upgrade.

Acura really needs to include a fancy graphic like BMW does. BMWs have the best sensor displays.

My RDX has the OEM dealer-added backup sensors and there is no display whatsoever. I'm guessing the ILX sensors will be the same.
