Front Camera Installation

Hello,

I've just got my new X5 but when I ordered it I made the mistake of not ordering the 360 camera option so it just came with the rear camera .

Does somebody know if its possible to install at least the front camera? It has the hole covered with plastic so I was thinking if it would be possible.


Thanks in advance.

There are also cameras in each side mirror for the full 360. You will need the cameras, appropriate trim, wiring, and coding to have things work

Does that coding exist at the moment?

I'm not the one who would know, maybe but the modules aren't freely circulating yet

This won’t help the OP, but speaking of front cameras, I’ve noticed that when I try to select my front camera for viewing it shows the rear camera. If I select either side camera, it shows them just fine. If I select rear, it shows rear, if I select front, it still shows rear. Anybody else having this or noticing this?
