A local BMW dealer here in Gainesville contacted us about adding a 2015 BMW X5 backup camera to one of their vehicles. The customer agreed to purchase the vehicle only if it had a backup camera integrated into the factory screen. It took a little research, but we found a solution that would meet the customer’s needs and make the BMW dealership happy.
The dealer dropped off the shiny black BMW and we set about installing an AIS BMW12CAMKIT1 in the vehicle. The kit includes a high-quality camera that we installed above the license plate and beside the tailgate lift. The camera is an angled, surface mount design that blends nicely with the black paint on the vehicle. The kit also includes an integration module that feeds the camera video signal into the factory screen. When the vehicle is put in reverse, the camera image appears on the large LCD screen right away. There are no buttons to push or switches to activate.
The dealership was very pleased with the fit and finish of the camera and loved that it worked as if it came off the assembly line with a camera option.
