Note: Please see my new videos where I installed the camera module and the rearview backup camera: https://youtu.be/vV0XcuZ0-PI and https://youtu.be/vV0XcuZ0-PI
In this video I installed a front view camera module for my BMW F30 2012 3 series and did all the wiring required to route the cable from the FEM module at the passenger side all the way to the front grill:

Works for other models as well (F1x, F2x, F3x, etc.)
Sorry I don’t do fitting on others’ cars.
No need for 3AG option and do VO coding.
This job requires the following:
– Remove dashboard
– Remove NBT HUto install the camera module
– Install camera module
– Remove interior trim on side door passenger side to reveal the FEM module
– Route a wire from inside the car to the front side under the bonnet all the way to the front grill
Needed for the job:
– Trim removal tool
– Cloth tape for the loom
– Camera module
– Front view camera
– T20 screwdriver
– BMW Car 🙂
how much is the front camera?!
and can i have a link to it pls
How do you access the front camera, do you have shortcuts from the idrive knob or menu to view the front camera?
Excellent, thank you. Please add more F30 DIY video
Did you unplug the wires and twist them and put them both
Back In?
Why did you not show the most important part of wiring the power and ground ?
It's the same for an E90?
Do you need the interface if you already have surround view?
Can power not be taken from the front fuse box using a tap fuse connector? This will not require any wire cutting etc.
Hi, where can I get the camera in front of the BMW F30 at my car has the factory
BMW Navigation System Harman GPS Nbt ?
Where did you get this technical document? ( pin scheme)
Nice and very informative. Did you find a solution to your issue where the front camera is not switching automatically? I bought the same kit and the front camera. Planning to do the install in couple of days 🙂 only difference is that I have an automatic.
