Reverse camera for F10 520d

[fastnfurious]

Hey guys anyone have any idea on installing the reverse camera or even better yet the top view camera for the 520d?Would have really like to have it but unfortunately the 520d doesnt come with it.

If i am not mistaken there is an official retrofit available, just enquire at your dealer.

1.2k SGD in Singapore. Not the top view camera though, just the original reverse camera.

I am also interested to put in the reverse camera, has anyone done it yet?

Any idea how much would it cost if we were to do at BMW Malaysia?

TQ

Im not comfortable with the pDC we have. Would really like to have the front and rear camera. If anyone has any details would appreciate some info.
Ive asked ingress and they say BMW doest do any retrofit for camera....

BTW...already koyak my car.......coming out of carpark........did a scratch test using my front and rear door against a proton bumper......needless to say my car lost....had to repaint both doors..........if I had the top view camera this definitely would not have happened.......now very very (very) paranoid when I park.....

oh yeah the damn proton was parked next to my car(i.e it wasnt moving)......while turning left to come out of the carpark, I turned to early so rubbed the two doors against a parked proton (very malu one)

ai yo, sakit ooo... my previous ride is mpv with the front, back side camera etc... but if compared to our ride's PDC, i still prefer PDC as it tells u the estimated distance (although there is a bit bit of delay) as compared to the camera which is 2D image without the depth of field which u can't really make out the distance to the object too... however it became very useful when there is corresponding driving line that follow ur steering wheel movement...

Hi guys,

I asked the folks at Auto Bavaria Sungai Besi and they can do it. They have already did one 520d. It's approximately 7 hours labour, so about 1 day's worth of work if you start in the morning.

Price is RM8319.35 including parts, labour and tax.
