Hi vishwen,
You're right, there is no RCA AV input wiring That was why I did not order it.

Just received mine too. I will install it tommorow.

I see there is a special connector to hook-up the rear view camera, but I am also wondering how do I connect a DVD player to the unit ???

unless you bought the ACM for the 1-series.... all other bmws are the same as i know...
seems like you are looking for RCA plug...i dont think it has any.. its supose to use BMWs dvd players...
can anyone figure out a way to plug in normal dvd players??

Hi Madoon,
i bought the one for E60 and the only thing that could not find is the

RCA (AV INPUT) , but can see plug No A16 (18 pin) is for camera.

But could not see any thing for dvd.

i think the ACM module will only support BMWs equipment.... so i dont think that will work directly...
if you really want to use aftermarket players...you may be able to do some mods to connectors and conect them successfully....
im not an expert in electronics...
but i was looking at the installation instructions... and there is a circuit diagram of the connectors... that should be very usefull...
its on page 27....

hope that helps..good luck...
