I will be pulling out my ACM from my car. For those who don't know what the ACM is, its BMW's OEM version of the idrive video interface that allows you to connect up front and rear cameras, TV, DVD etc. Click the DIY link in my signature to see how it works.

I am looking for £250 for the ACM on its own. This come boxed, with all the manuals and instructions. Plus I will include the custom cables I made up to allow you to connect aftermarket cameras and DVD player.
I have a choice of rear cameras for you.
1. Integrated into the rear boot handle. Used. Add £50. http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=58927
2. EU License plate 180 degree CCD camera with Night vision and grid marks. Brand New. Add £100. http://www.sharpvision.cn/waterproof/cw642.htm
3. Small key hole 180 degree camera with grid marks. Brand New. Add £65. http://www.sharpvision.cn/waterproof/cw637.htm
If anyone wants the cameras on their own as well I have some spare.
Worldwide shipping is extra and Paypal is 3.5% extra. UK Shipping is included. Please send me an email or PM me if you are interested. bruce_miranda@yahoo.com
I am going to be selling other stuff as well shortly, so could do a deal on a package.

This will go on ebay soon if there is no more interest here. I don't mind if you want to submit offers.

You can't (and shouldn't) upgrade the screen because the ACM is a BMW OEM kit designed to work with the OEM screen. Please contact me urgently if you are interested.

Works absolutely fine on all cars across the world without coding. ACM was never an option anywhere. Its a retrofit kit provided.

The ACM has now been pulled out of the car completely. The parts look almost new because they are inside the car under the dash. Still available for sale.

Hi Bruce,
In terms of the instructions on how to install, is there any tapping of wires involved? I have opened up all of it before, but have had some tough luck with tapping and playing with wires. Also, how much is shipping to the US?
I'll ask my dealer for a quote for retrofitting this tomorrow.

There is no cutting of wires involved in the kit that I am selling even though the ACM instructions expect you to splice the power from the screen power cables. Instead I made up plug and play connectors for that.
Everything else is plug and play.
Shipping to the US will be £25. Whoever wants this needs to act fast, pay day is approaching and atleast 3 people have asked me if I would wait until pay day. My default stance is, the first person to pay get its.

Ahh nice, one more n00b question, it does work when one is driving right? I read through the BMW manual and it says this will only work in parked cars but your installation thread says that you were able to overcome this?
