X1 Reversing Camera

My X1, bought secondhand, does not have a a reversing camera. Does anyone know if the wiring from the tailgate to the dashboard display is already installed as part of the standard wiring loom?

Thanks, Chris

    Morning Chris 

    Welcome to the Forum

    Check www.realoem.com put the last 7 digits of your Vin into the search box and it will call up your Model. Then search the relevant sections. If you have PDC with the graphics most should be there I think

    I believe you may need the Video controller and possibly a short loom link in the tailgate plus of course the camera. 

    Good Luck

    Had Autologic fit the camera. Just took 1.5hrs on the front drive including feeding the cabling though from the back to the front. Works just like an OEM unit. Trevor did a good clean job. Not cheap at £600 but you can pay more if you want to!
