Retrofit the OEM backup camera?
Hey yall!
2016 X1 without PDCs or rear backup camera. I have an aftermarket unit installed, but its never worked all that great honestly. Searching the forums there have been people asking if this retrofit can be done, but not seen conclusive opinions. The only variable from the other posts I have seen is if the car has PDCs, then you can just add the camera as the harness is there. If it doesn't have PDCs, you are short of luck. Any thoughts? Anyone able to do this? thanks!

There is a guy who did it on a mini here: https://www.minif56.com/threads/retr...st#post-837517 Mini shares the platform with our x1 F48 so the principle is the same but some parts are different. Wiring kit is here https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/sho...diagId=03_2048 Try to source the EBA, try to source it from a dealer or BMW specialis. It then also says which parts are included in the kit and which parts need to be bought separately. Retrotfit backup camera; Attaching official retrofit guide |
