Do you have any pics of the license plate light that comes from the camera itself? Sorry to be a pain in the a$$ but I wanted to see if it's close my LED lights. It's a very cool mod tho.

My Ride: M5
just wanted to put in my reply here:
mentholguy did the install on my m5 today and it went exactly as he has shown.....install was relatively easy with exception of some tight clips...lol. the interface kit fit nicely behind the idrive monitor and the camera/handle fit exactly like oem.
great mod for the money.....
tony, do it! you will like it a lot......lol

You must be confused with other product, my camera doesn't replace license plate light with small LED, so it won't cover or reduce light amounts.

no, i asked him the same thing. we have to turn off the pdc then inorder to see the video on the whole screen.
(so can't have pdc on right then- its either on the left or off completely)

I emailed Garry Romani (GRomani@bmwofnewport.com) for the E60.net discount price on the Aux retrokit part# 65120153502 and he said $60 plus shipping.. BavAuto.com had it for $79.95.. waiting to hear from my dealer on labor/install price.
