I don't have a vehicle with 360, but the reasons others have mentioned is why I really want one. Our garage is decent on depth, but isn't super wide. So we have to get right up against the wall basically, and it's scary every time that we will get a little too close. Having a visual to tell us if we can get even a little closer would be great.
Also in some parking spaces and that which are very tight. I'm really good at parallel parking in terms of speed to park and just getting in place, but have failed at times on getting as close as I could to the curb because of my fear of making a mistake and damaging a rim, another situation this would significantly improve.

Sounds like some great uses.
Tip - when I parallel park any vehicle, I often aim the right mirror to see the curb, and planters, etc. Allows you to get close without that "damn, gouged the rim" ruining your day.

We have five outdoor cats that hang out around my garage. When I back in, I watch the side cameras to make sure I don't back over the one that I like or the one that is growing on me. I guess I'm watching for the other three too - just to keep peace with the wife and to keep from having to get my backhoe out so I can get rid of the evidence before she gets home.
They're also good for impressing people that don't have them.

While I have the 360 cameras and I bought them thinking they were going to be a really big help when I'm backing up my driveway as I have to park very close to a fence too make room for my wife's car next to me so we can get the doors open. But I found the best answer was after I installed the tilt mirrors in reverse option with Forscan was to put a spot on the driveway to aim the rear tire at works really really good see picture.

Mine are blurry too. I would think the side cameras would be more in focus, but their not. If I am outside in the sun though, the image is clearer, just not as I would have expected them to be.

Are the imagines from the cameras underneath the side view mirrors misaligned when they are folded in? Need to fold my mirrors in when parking in the garage. Curious if this option would be useful during that time.
