The aftermarket backup cam solution is actually better than the oem i-drive setup! I have the oem camera, and the camera usually kicks in by the time I am DONE backing up and ready to go forward! The delay is unbelieveable! The aftermarket audio/video adapters have nothing to do with the i-drive...as soon as the reverse signal is detected, the camera will kick in! I am almost thinking of re-wiring mine with the GNET or similar adapter. Then again I'm also thinking about getting the new ///X5M
