Hi Guys,
I'm lurking over here at present - thinking of changing my F30 for an F10.
This thread
http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=944517 shows the installation I did of a Blackvue 380G into my F30 last year - hard-wired into the power feed in the mirror housing.
It starts up with the ignition and shuts down about 1 min after ignition off.
Not for the faint hearted, or those who don't solder!
