I just watch this youtube video, it's saying there is a video jack at the inside of the navigation panel that is connect to the side cameras of the side mirror.

Can the display (output) of that camera, or perhaps a rear camera at the rear windows that the navigation panel can display? this way, it fixes the blind spot problem during lanes changes

Honda calls it "Lanewatch" in the USA, it has been on certain higher trim levels of various car models and various model years here.
I don't know if the same is available in Canada, or which years, models and trim levels are equipped with it.

I don't have info about connecting your own camera to the navigation display either, but here's a picture of the mirror with built in camera

that's impressive. That's exactly what I want. I heard rumor in youtube that Type R 2010 is going to be 2 door, or even convertible. I would imagine this feature should be included in the upcoming Type R. If they have a 2 door in the future, I'll definitely upgrade

Now, is there any problem of this technology at night time? How exactly does that camera works at night?

If you're in Canada look at honda.ca and see which cars have the feature

all it says is:

it would have some way to work at night time. But I wonder how that camera can detect cars in the dark

I have the 2010 Si, the spoiler is kind of blocking the way. I do shoulder check, but this feature would be very helpful.

On a sidenote, I don't understand how can car like the new Lambo be practical? they block the entire rear windows w/ shade, as if their blind spot is not big enough

Headlights show up brightly on the screen.

Most average people wouldn't buy any sort of Lambo for practicality.

ditto, those Lambo are unsafe and impractical
