F25 Reversing camera

Post by simonfr » Mon May 14, 2018 8:59 pm

I managed to get a good car at a great price, but unfortunately it didn't come with a reversing camera. Really only need it for backing up to a trailer, but having had it on my last F11 I know it'll be useful for parking in general.

Any recommendations for aftermarket devices that are easy enough to fit and don't look too ugly (inside or outside of the car).

Thanks, Simon

Just a thought, but have a quick look at Realoem and use the last 7 of your VIN in ‘serial number’ in case there is an official retrofit kit.  Some models can have it so you might be lucky.

If you can source the bits and get the EBA (fitting instructions) then you can avoid dealer prices.  :)

I know what you mean about missing it when you are used to having one  :(
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

Thanks for the suggestion. Just had a look and there is a retrofit option, but the parts alone will be nearly £800. I'm going to have to try a cheaper option I think.
