It is not available yet but it is on the accesorieslist. The front and rear camera option.. Any info on that yet.. Looks like a cool gadget!

I agree that it is a cool gadget. I have the rear camera on my Honda Pilot. I am much more comfortable, however, relying on the PDC indicator and beeps, than trying to judge distance on the video screen. On the Honda, the camera uses a very wide angle lens to take in the far right and left views, but this misleads the driver into thinking there is more room to back up than is actually there.
You need to recalibrate your judgment when interpreting the picture, and it does not feel very reliable in indicating distance between you and the object behind the car.

That is a cool gadget, you can look at women walking past your car at the traffic light to the left and right of your car! 
Better still, shoot from the bottom.

No I don't think installation is included but I will check when I take my car there in a few days.
PS: There is only one dealership in Saudi Arabia Kingdom wide, therefore I think they are charging more.
