Backup cameras

I seen these a lot on ebay for misc bmw models.. this one is the closest one I found that is FEELDO CCD Backup Rear View Car Camera

I tested fitted into my 07, fits in the license plate light section. Next step is to figure out wiring. Not sure if I want to use those wireless transmitter or hard wire it to a monitor. The light off the camera is 5k led. so I just need to switch the other side to led.

It's not too difficult. You need a buy a video module like this one:

It plugs into the DVD player. Then you connect the video input of the camera to the module, and the power to the camera is spliced into the reverse lights.
