I sell reverse camera's in Australia and for some strange reason the quality of some cameras used by the car manufacturers is terrible. From a cost perspective a good quality unit would cost tripple that of a cheaper unit. The price BMW ask for a camera option they really shouldnt embarrass themselves with the cheap crap they use.

I've got a great solution...

Lets send out a mass email requesting all E70 owners not use their back-up camera on July 25th...this will send a message to the manufacture that we mean business...kinda like the mass email telling everyone not to buy gas on a certain day. Yea, this will work!

I know a few mentioned switching out the factory unit for a better one. Are these rear cameras interchangable with other manufactuers units? If so, I'd gladly go buy a better one if that means better quality.

My S550 has a way better picture than the X5. Looking at the S class rear camera, it looks like the reverse lights do most of the illumination and gives a great night picture. Has anyone looked at other BMW models with reverse camera and is it any better than the x5?
