Default Activate surround camera automatically

Wondering if there is a way to automatically active the surround camera when my speed decreases below a set level. When I put the car in reverse, the rear view and surround cameras come on automatically, but when I'm pulling into a parking space, only the ultrasonic sensors come on automatically, and I have to manually turn on the surround cameras. In my Acura MDX, the surround camera comes on automatically whenever my speed drops below approx. [10 km per hour] or something like that. I find this extremely helpful when navigating through tied parking garages and mall parking lots (where they have many concrete curbs and islands). Is there way to do this?

I'm also interested in this. I always manually turn on the overhead view when pulling into a parallel parking spot, so I can see if I'm centered, and how close I am to the curb. It would be great if the overhead view could come on automatically.

I just noticed a posting in the Q7 forum suggesting that this can be done with coding - see link below. Wondering if anyone knows what coding is required.
