Just to let you know, the base starting price without ANY options whatsoever, the X3 2.0d (an engine you don't even get in the states) starts at approx. 75k USD the 3.0SD is about 125k USD.... Beat that! :-(

That's totally absurd. Am I correct in assuming that similar jobs pay much more there than in the US as well or does everyone have to be a doctor or a lawer to buy a decent car?

There is a fellow on Ebay that has a kit that allows rear view. The X3 is particularly a good deal, and is less than half the other BMW models. He seels the video input kit for $199. There are lots of cameras out there for < $50. I have not seen one that works for front and rear on the aftermarket. This would require mering two video streams. The aftermaret kit has two inputs, so you could add a switch to see front or rear. There are some BMW kits on EBay, but you need lots of pieces. BimmerNav sells the BMW stuff. I didn't look that closely because of the price. here is the link to the x3 page for all their offerings.

http://www.bimmernav.com/store/catal...-index-22.html

They have one that supports TV and camera, and another that is just camera. They also have a night vision one that costs $3500! They mostly sell genuine BMW parts. Of course the TV one is a foolish one to buy with analog TV disappearing. The video only model is like $576, which is why I thought the Ebay one was such a good deal. It is virtually plug and play for the box, although you have to route the camera wires yourself. You can get wirelsss cameras, but you still have to provide power. I believe it shold be pretty easy to get power from the license plate light.

The Ebay guy link is:

I have not put this in, yet, but I am waiting for spring and considering it.

The pic's show's that the front view camera should be have dual view function .Very awesome .But the price is kinda high.
I think the any universal cameras can be used as front view if you find the place its ok to postion into .
Maybe the front view camera can be add at grill area since BMW don't have badge for postion front view .
Look those badge front view cameras on this site : http://zhd-autocamera.blogspot.com/ ,that might be interesting .
