Dynavin N6 install -Pics!

I like it so far. The PDC screen is a nice touch. I need to turn off the little voice that keeps saying "you are over the speed limit."

Woah. Wish the Avin overlayed the PCD info like that. That's pretty swanky. What camera is that? It's very clear too. Better than the one I have I think. Unless that is just a really well lit area.

Nice work. It was a tough decision between the Avin and the Dynavin... but in the end we wanted the Android ecosystem. Were watching youtube on the way back from Houston the other day.

I bought this camera off Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/SunroadTek®-Re...+backup+camera
It's been pretty clear in most areas. I did have to cut up my trim piece to make it fit.

It takes a village to install a backup camera.

Do those parking lines curve with the steering wheel angle or do they remain fixed?

Do you still have access to the factory computer... to change the settings, reset fuel consumption, clock, etc? Can you see all of this on the screen?

Trying to get my N6 fully installed. Love it so far but would like to get the PDC to work. I'm stumped on which wire or how to connect. Has someone installed with success? I'm not interested in the reverse camera, just the PDC.

Instructions from Jeff :find the reverse light circuit at the reverse light plug and figure out which wire with a test light. I have no idea where that is.

Previous posts indicated the x38 connector but I don't know where that is either.

Would I need to be running a wire from the tailgate all the way to the front of truck to behind the N6 or should the wire already be up at the front?

Sorry for the newbie questions.

I have a 2005 BMW X5 4.4i

No, you can not access any of the OEM OBC functions. You're limited to the Dyanvins clock, ambient temp, and coolant temp IIRC. (maybe oil too if your cluster did so.) My biggest grief is that I can't access the DSP menu w/o having to plug in my old MID.

For an X5, I think you can still access and reset thing like the stopwatch, timer, MPG via the stalk.

The only other way to get around this is to re-connect or re-located the MID.
