Honestly I didn’t find the camera assist to be super useful (granted I have very limited experience right now). In the daytime it seems to detect objects fine, but the distance estimation is hit or miss. At night, which is really when it’s a more necessary feature, it kept telling me park assist is degraded.
Now all that said it’s not too hard to estimate where the front of the car is. And the back I can maneuver pretty well between cameras and mirrors. But it certainly feels like a step back in that regard compared to my model 3.
At some point I might do some serious research into the possibility of retrofitting them. But unfortunately it wouldn’t be a cheap endeavor since it would necessitate new bumpers. And since ultra red didn’t exist in the ultrasonic era, in my case that means Tesla doesn’t even sell pre painted bumpers (or sensors in the correct color for that matter)
