No and yes!
Mine were useless as surround cameras. The fronts were supposed to help you out of blind junctions, but they were both basically pointing forward, the sides weren’t much better. The only decent camera with a use is the rear, for reversing and hitching a trailer.
Don’t waste your time or money is my advice.

Well my HSE Luxury has them as standard, and only the reverse cam works now. Can’t be arsed fixing the rest, just not worth the hassle. They failed just out of warranty.

Plus on MY14 onwards there are  and LRCS proved worthless and useless in trying to get it resolved. LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.

They are not great. However if you are going to try to fit them and can put the front cameras in a better position they may well be more user friendly MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange
MY15 D4 HSE Kaikoura Stone
MY12 D4 HSE Nara Bronze Sold and gone
MY11 D4 HSE Stornaway Grey Sold and gone
D3 S spec Silver Sold and gone
Tow bar, full length roof bars, side steps, tow bar storage unit, surround camers.
