Hi beagle,

I am interested as well, please post some pics when your E60 is done w/ the reverse camera. Also, please provide the part # too (front and rear prism camera if possible).

Thank you

I am getting mine installed tomorrow in Singapore. Will let you know the outcome. As I have PDC, I was told that the display will be spilt screen - with PDC and reverse camera picture displayed on i-drive. Cool!

Please tell me what you original configuration is (do you have Nav and/or TV) and what are the parts needed to get this functioning.
Yes, I do have Nav and TV. I will post full part numbers on Wednesday when I return to Singapore and collect my car. I will try to post pictures also. My BMW sales rep is sending it in tomorrow for retrofiting while I am away.

Cheers,
Beagle

Looking forward to seeing your post on this. I'm actually interested to know if anyone has the reverse camera without the TV option?

Ok. Just collected my ride today. Was somewhat disappointed. I was told before installation that it will be split screen on i-drive showing PDC and rear camera view. After installation, it was only showing rear camera view. No split screen. I refused to sign-off on the invoice and insist that they deliver what they promise. I am waiting for them to revert.

As for the part nos, here goes:

66210412010 - Reversing Camera Retrofit Kit
66210406999 - Nachrustsatz Steuergera

Cheers,
Beagle

I am sorry to hear that I completely agree with you about them delivering what they promise

Best wishes and please keep us posted.

What is Nachrustsatz Steuergera in English?

Also the UK accessory brochure has the Reverse camera kit as Part No 66210392373 at ?345/-. No mention about the control unit or anything else.

In thailand, they have front and rear camera already installed on all new 5 series, and you can also view the sides of the cars as well... i'm not sure if its a third or fourth camera on the sides. I'm wondering if this can be retrofitted on a car without NAV.
