Installing a Car Dash Cam

Model: BMW Serie 7 E66, E67, E68, E65, MK 4 - Years 2001-2008
Part: Accessory kit

Installing a dash cam does not require modifications to the vehicle's original electrical system; it should be noted that the Driver Defense Camera must be an external device, removable and/or detachable without the use of special tools, connected and powered via a 12-24 V DC outlet (or another equivalent solution) to the vehicle's electrical system. Installing a Driver Defense Camera on the windshield of a vehicle is a simple operation that takes only a few minutes. To install a dash cam: attach the mounting bracket to the dash cam, insert the microSD memory card, connect the power cable to the dash cam, secure the bracket to the windshield in the chosen position, and plug the other end of the cable into the cigarette lighter socket.
