Why OEM Integration?
This rear-view camera retrofit kit is a BimmerTech exclusive and uses your BMW's factory iDrive screen and camera mode, so you get the same look and feel as a factory-installed cam, with nearly the same picture quality at a much lower price. A value-priced option which also uses the native BMW camera mode.

1
BEFORE YOU START
Disconnect the negative car battery terminal.
If you are installing the OEM Integration Rear View Camera, you should have your car coded before you start the installation, either via USB for compatible models, or by a BimmerTech technician through the internet (click here to see how to schedule your coding session).
For the OEM Rear View Camera, a remote coding session will be necessary after all the parts are installed. read more hide

INSTALL THE CAMERA
To install the rear view camera in the trunk handle: begin by removing the trim panel on the trunk lid.
Pop out the existing trunk handle and disconnect the wire. Pop the new trunk handle into the trunk lid. You should hear it click into place. hide

ROUTE THE CABLE FROM THE TRUNK TO THE DASHBOARD OF YOUR BMW
The camera wire is a single thin wire that goes from the trunk lid all the way to the dashboard as follows: route the camera cable in the trunk lid and then from the trunk lid to the trunk following the factory wiring. Remove the passenger-side trunk liner (wheel-arch trim). In order to get from the trunk to the passenger compartment, remove the side section of the rear backrest. Route the camera cable along the existing wiring. Then route the cable along the side of the car on the floor under the trim pieces until you reach the dashboard. Remove the passenger-side lower dashboard trim (in the footwell) and route the cable up to the iDrive. hide

INSTALL THE CAMERA MODULE
Depending on the camera type, you will need to remove the iDrive screen and/or radio head unit to install the camera module in the space behind it. hide
5
FINAL STEP
Before you put the car back together, make sure the camera works.
Reinstall all the panels and parts removed during the installation process. Be careful not to pinch any of the cables running under these panels. hide
