Has anyone ever fitted a reversing camera to their E85?

Really interested in doing this, but can't work out whether I need a special module or will it just plug straight into a tv tuner module?

Can anyone weigh in with an opinion?

Cheers
 
Just plugs in if you buy the AV input lead to plug into the TV tuner. Can be found on ebay for £30.

Couple different camera options. I'd maybe fit one in the number plate light, can get BMW versions, or if ypu have an M rear bumper, fit one within the grill. Saw one on a thread recently that looked OEM, barely noticed it.
 
IR night vision up front, on an AV input so selectable for night driving would be 8) 8)
 
Its all coming together...

Just reach the rear bumper edge with your hands. Lol

But very cool to use the Nav screen as a rear view mirror

Yeah I know it's a bit "what's the point", but it's more of a novelty to be honest.

Pretty cool too I'd say!

Thanks for all the input guys, tv tuner it is then!

Liking the idea of a FLIR front camera...maybe a tad pricey though!!!
 
Is this what I need to get a reversing camera? I don't have a tv module, is it just plug and play?
