Interesting. It's enabled on mine and not grayed out, either stationary or while moving. When was your car manufactured?

P.S. Any chance that only model Vs with AT have it enabled (as these settings are required for Intelligent Park Assist)? Can other V owners without AT confirm?

I initially had trouble performing the NAV hack but it turned out I was touching on the blue lines (or too close to them). Did you avoid the lines and touch the areas below and above the blue lines?

If you absolutely still can't do it, Toyota is known to disable Easter eggs (when uncovered by the public) in the middle of a production year, and depending on when the car is manufactured, this might be what's happening. My 2007 Lexus is one of the last vehicles to be able to do the NAV hack (at least for different finger dance sequence than posted here) before they disabled it mid-2006, so you'll find some 2007 RX350 that can do it and some that can't.

OK, that was the problem...thanks. Now I can get into the menu but the camera button is grayed out like for rachaelseven.

Hold the info button and turn on and off your headlights 3 times. [Read somewhere on PC]

I think you hit it right on the head there - probably something accessible only on the V because of the IPA. Mine was manufactured in June, afaik.

Model III and the camera menu is grayed out. Also my bars when I press DISP are red.

You can change the color of the bars in one of the setup screens.

mine are greyed as well. were you guys trying it with the car in gear or off? i went into the service menu when the car was off and increased call volume and played around a bit, but the camera option was grey. i have a flat in mine right now due to a screw in the tire but I plan to try other options after I get that fixed

Tried it in every mode possible...I think it's been agreed that it will only work on a V, possibly only a V with IPA. Is it working for anyone who doesn't have a V?

I would really like to get this working on my III...had to haul a mattress yesterday (incidentally I had a twin mattress inside the Prius with the hatch closed) with no visibility out the rear window. Illegal, I know, but having the camera on would have helped a lot.
