I believe in the K.I.S.S. Principal. I've known several people with factory rear bumper sensors who've backed into things; a couple had $$$ damage. Maybe people have a natural inclination to ignore beepers and lights, maybe the sensors get confused; I dunno. I prefer to SEE if anything's back there. Why spend hundreds of $$ when a $15 lens WORKS.

Because the $15 lens makes you look really old, and gives the short school bus look to your hummer?

Not a problem...I AM really old.  No one really notices the lens anyway; the swing-out stop sign on the A-pillar draws their attention away from it.

Re: Low Cost Rear Visibility
The rear lens cost $25 including shipping and took 10 seconds to install.
Backing over a child or dog will really age a person! (that for Ruskie)
I am old but only 40 in Hummer years.
You can hardly see it from the outside, so the school bus issue doesn't exist, as if that would be a problem.
Best regards, Happy Jack

That's why I have no problem spending $2000 on a HD wide angled backup cam with nightvision, tilt/pan capabilities, microwave human detection, face recognition and fail safes that apply the brake if something is detected. I guess I'm just old fashioned!
