Hi,

I have a question for you:

Since i'm not as electrical as you guys, i wanted to know how much it would cost me if i just want to play DVD movies on my i drive screen (if possible while i'm driving).

Another question:
Is it possible to use your navigation in the right box on your screen while watching a dvd movie? And are there pictures of it?

Would appreciate it a lot if someone could give some answers to my question,

B

Just out of curiosity, are you trying to fit an original BMW camera or a third party one? What else have you hooked up to the module?
The original BMW camera and a DVD player. Digital TV will be added later...

Thanks for showing the location of rear view camera. My next question is that how did you wire the camera all the way to the back of the dashboard ?

Via tailgate, headliner, d-pilar, footwell, dashboard (right to left). This is all shown in the BMW installation instruction (EBA).

Hello Midget

Please stop teasing us, we want a complete report. A backup camera is the best thing invented since sliced bread. I had it on an Infiniti FX35, and in three years the rear bumper was not scratched. Compare to my departed M5 I had to repaint the rear bumper after 6 months although it has PDC.

Thanks.

Did ACM module come with installation instruction or you have to find the installation instruction elsewhere ? From the pictures that you posted, you have a wagon, not sedan. I assume that wiring in sedan is similar, may not be exactly the same ...

Thanks,

Cost would be;

ACM module EUR 500
generic DVD player EUR 150

DVD takes up the whole sceen on my Nav Business. I guess the same goes for Nav Professional.
