Quality of BMW Backup Cam?
I've searched all existing articles on it and am prepared to trigger on the install. Just a quick couple of questions...are people satisfied with the quality of the image on this camera and...more important does it provide a reasonable image at night? TIA

I went with an aftermarket solution (there's ton's available now including infra red cameras) which I installed into the emblem. Much more discreet. I don't see the edge of my bumper, but get a clear view of everything behind me. The PDC helps judge the distance to any object behind. |

Hey King,
I think I saw a pic of that emblem cam install in another forum here & It's SWEEEET! I might be looking to do the same soon. For now, without cameras or IR, I'm relying on the pleasant surprise that the X5 is actually smaller to park than my 740iL was! But that said, I think the upgrade only makes sense, especially keeping in mind broken glass on the road or a kid dashing out behind the car (!). A Quick Q: What other locations (if any) did you install cams or sensors? There seem to be an array of options from 1 sensor to 12-16, depending on coverage. Anyone's .02? TIA. M |

KIng, sweeeet setup on the backup cam.
I'm trying to do the same for mine, installing the cam on the roundel.

Can you buy the Honda camera and use that one w/the BMW install?
