Agree it is tight fit. Had a struggle myself to get that loose.

Do you need a reversing camera on a Gen 4 Jimny?

What you see through the back window is pretty much how close the back of the car is to any object.

I can get ours six inches from a wall with no issues.

Its very useful, being low down it shows everything that is below the window line, such as the front bumper of the car behind, small children etc.

Fair enough, can't argue with that!

I have had a string of cars with reverse and forward sensors and found them very useful, so added a reverse and forward camera to my Gen 3. Both cameras are useful for parking in tight spaces, but the rear camera with the overlay lines lets me know exactly how close I can reverse up to something and still open the rear door fully.

Not all of us are blessed with all the senses.
I am head injured with lo-vision, only one eye, and lo-balance with only one middle ear.
With only one middle ear I need to be strapped in when moving so I don't topple when I move my head.
With only one eye, I have no speed perception or distance judgement ability, so the Lo-vision Kit of the Reversing Sonar and Reversing Camera with its guidelines working together make it possible for me to reverse park the car.
The Gen 4 Jimny with its excellent forward vision is the only car currently approved for my Disability, I have my annual review in November.
Would you like to come for a ride with me sometime? ;)
