• PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!

Congratulations on receiving the first Aussie facelift Stinger on the forum!

Does it have blind spot monitoring with the lights on the mirrors in addition to the blind spot cameras?

Lots more photos would be great please, if you have the time. :thumbup:

They look amazing ....

Yes nice improvement vs the current seat and perfect match with new door stiching. For that reason I believe they look better vs the diamond quilted from Korea because they match better the door pannel. Korean version should also have the door pannel in diamond quilted to match.
 
Just picked mine up, the wheels do look much better in person.

Such a lovely car, gonna take me a while to work through all the tech.

i do agree, the wheels look better in person but i will still change them eventually. Coming from a car that had zero tech to this is a bit challenging.

Yeah I still prefer the pre-facelift wheels but I can live with these for the meantime. My initial thoughts were that I was going to have to change them straight away haha, but they've grown on me.

And yeah there is so much beeping and all sorts going on I'm battling.

Couldn't be happier though.

Thanks for your reply and the photos - looks great!

I know the car now comes with blind spot cameras; I'm asking if it also has blind spot monitoring - there is a yellow light in the exterior mirror that illuminates and an icon is displayed in the head-up display if there is a car in your blind spot. Someone said this feature is deleted and replaced with the blind spot cameras; I'm hoping they're wrong and the car comes with both blind spot monitoring *and* the blind spot cameras.

It sure does, my one has both. Someone one this thread said it doesn't come with the side cameras and the dash view for the side cameras. That person has no idea what they are talking about lol.

That would be me and I'll remind you that I was relating what a salesman said when I asked.....refer post #93. AND, in post #92 you stated that blind spot detection had been removed so do you also fall into the category of "no idea"?

It’s safe to say nobody, including the salesman themselves, really had all the info.

I can confirm the blind spot detection is still there.

Also, I’ve worked out why the wheels look better in person. They’re actually mostly black on the inside of the spokes etc... goes well with grey paint.

i was referring to completely different posts further back than the 2 you listed. I just looked at your posted, you literally where at a kia dealer looking at the car (post 90) and said "Ive confirmed the following, No blind spot warning" but whatever not going to fight about it lol
