Thank you for your tip on the wires. Wpoll!

I've been driving the X5 today and enjoying the clear backup image. Not as sharp as my wife's R350 camera, but good enough to make out the obstacles!

I'll probably cut the loop wire next week and see what that does.

On a side note, I took out the bulb inside the right license plate light holder and soldered the + and - of the camera's led light to the + and - of the bulb holder.

This allows the camera's led to light up when the plate light is turned on. But I am now getting a license plate light error.

Any idea what could have caused this error?
