Saw an ad for this in Panorama. Anybody tried it out yet? My car doesn't have parking sensors or back up camera, and to add that is quite expensive, with a lot of assembly/disassembly. This could be a solution. If you've bought it, let me know your experience, please. And does the OBD plug fit OK?

Several threads on it here. I own one and love it. Works beautifully and the image quality is better than nearly every OEM camera I've seen. I just open the app when approaching my car and by the time it's fired up I am staring at the rear-view camera. The object detection works fairly well and is somewhat similar to a parking assist radar.
Only caveat is if your car is constantly garaged you may have to charge the plate once every 3-4 weeks because it's solar powered.

Mine fell off or was stolen. Amazingly Pearl says they're going to send me a new one. That's darn good support.

Just installed the Pearl. Had to turn off car blue tooth first to then install
Pearl blue tooth and then it worked like a charm.
Pretty cool product. They mentioned an auto start but not sure that works on an I phone.

I have the app on my first page so it isn't a big deal to me to bring it up fast.

I don't like keeping my phone on the dash (the vent mount works fine) so after I back up, I grab my phone and put it in my door pocket where I usually keep it anyways.

I dont like the position of the mount on the vents in the car so I am going to use the Rennline car mount that attaches to the console.
the magnet holder from Rennline works great in the macan and should work well in the 911 also.

I use mine now all the time. It is a great mod to a car that does not have a rear camera. Quality 1st rate and it works. I use the vent mount but whatever works for you so you can use it properly.
