Park Distance Control without Executive Package?

Have a feeling this has been asked a few times, but couldn't find the answer with a forum search.

Is there a way to order individual options without getting the Executive Package? I find it ridiculous to pay $4300 for PDC. I'm so used to PDC that I will pretty much hit everything reversing now...

Off putting to say the least. My kids Honda had the system added by the dealer for like $350.

You know, when I bought the exec package, I only wanted the rear view camera. So I had pretty much the same complaint: "I just want the rear view cam and I don't want the whole package." But after I got it, turns out these things are also very handy and I have to use them everyday: park distance control, head-up display, comfort access. Still don't care about the sat radio and the heated steering wheel (I live in TX, it's not that cold). I would actually recommend the exec package to anybody as long as money isn't a huge issue.

Agreed. The HUD adds to the driving experience, especially if you track the car. I've been using my heated steering wheel for the past week in TX. Nicely warming up now though!!

+1.....comfort access alone is worth 4300. Lol.

+1 on Exec package.
I wasn't sold on it initially (pun intended), with HUD and 360 cameras being the main draws.

PDC is made redundant by the cameras (I would actually pay money to skip it and the bumper butt plugs that come with it), and satellite radio quality has gone down the drains. But "free" leather interior, heater steering wheel, headlight washers, and comfort access are all welcome additions.
