My take is the requirement is that the light needs to be orange when it's on. These clear lenses have an orange bulb behind them. My dealer installed clear lenses for me (free of charge) while I was in the Finance office doing the paperwork. He just asked me if I preferred clear lenses -- wasn't a difficult decision -- much better.

Yes indeed it does! Those orange ones are an eye sore. Once I replaced them I stood back, looked at the car, and said "ahhhh...much better"
Agreed!

In Utah the regulation is that the lens material be orange. Several years ago I had to change back for safety inspection. However the LED clear do show some orange through the lens when off and I told the inspection people they were OEM on some US models--so no problem anymore.

I think it's the mute button for rear and rear window heater for front...

I am aware of that but I prefer to have buttons on the console dedicated specifically for the cameras on the console. According to the instructions, you can force the cameras on by providing 12 volts to specific wires.

Also, it's worth mentioning that the factory buttons have limitations for showing the camera based on speed and timing. Additional buttons are always a good choice. Check this thread out: https://rennlist.com/forums/991/9251...northwest.html
