My system is aftermarket - the factory one I am guessing is around a 2,000 modification. I have been able to do my whole thing for...450...

The factory system would not be keyed into the MSCII screen - it would have new light unit display (in rear) and a new dash grille display (front) the unit (this is from memory) would be on always in reverse, and forward up to about 15mph then shut off. It utilizes the cars CAN BUS system and is a pretty involved and advanced system with audio and visual warning. My system is not as advanced - but I look at it like this - it is a tool to help with parking and in the worst case - hitting a child or person walking. My system has a front visual display and a rear audio warning tone that starts a slow beep at 6 feet away then grows faster until it is a constant tone at 1 foot.

I do not have any help on the Factory parktronic System? You would need to look at the loop to insure that Parktronic is active.

Good luck!
