Backup Camera Guides

Came across this video and saw that the GS in that video had back up guides. I don't have the guides in my US spec car, but is that something that is enabled on international cars, and maybe something we can enable on ours?

thats cool but..you're already seeing the back lol. Do you really need a guide to show you how close you're getting to the object behind you? I think those lines would obstruct your view more rather than helping.

You are correct though, it does have the potential of hiding something that could be in the way, blocked by the color bars.

I was just curious, no big deal.
