Backup cameras became required by law in 2016, so that is probably one of the reasons we don’t see a lot of aftermarket stuff now. Plus, there just isn’t a quality gap anymore. Want premium sound, pay $1,000 off top for Harmon Kardon.

I remember installing my alpine cd player and infinity 6x9’s in my 96 lumina. Man what a quality difference!

My new car has Harmon Kardon speakers and a massage function. It's like a mobile pleasure pod.

I wish I had massage damn! I’d settle for a vehicle that’s not a truck that my thighs touch the seat though. I’m like 6’4” and all legs.

I like VWs because they tend to fit my 6'5" frame. This ID.4 is by far the fanciest thing I've ever owned.

That must be local to you, my 2019 car doesn't have one and in my (European) country this is not mandatory.
