Congratulations on your new born!

Pretty straightforward, for Cellink i had the add a fuse thingys hooked up to fusebox and wired it along the bottom passenger side to the trunk. Blackvue power was wire tucked through the top passenger side, rear cam wire tucked through upper driver side.

Pretty happy with the results. Full charge takes 30mins on avg. And will last north of 10 hours.

This works nice because it doesn't interrupt the cars 12V battery and i only need recording while driving and parking at work, as for home i have other cameras so I'm not as worried.

How do you wire the wire from the rear to the front of the car if you dont mind me asking? I bought a blackvue and I'm trying to figureout the best way to wire the rear camera.

The wire can be fed through the trapezoidal plastic panel on the passenger side of the dash, or under the glovebox footwell panel, up the A pillar, headliner edge, back towards the rear brake light and out. Very easy.

When going through the headliner edge I want to avoid any cables interfering with the curtain airbag. I haven't dropped the headliner in the M3 yet but I assume there are a set of OEM wires running through the same path or are the factory wires running underneath the flooring?

Hey bud,

For rear cam i wired it through the top driver side to the rear. I drew a red line that represents where i ran the wires. For the excess wire i stuffed it in the driver side C pillar

Got to come home for a bit today and got a full tank of gas since the cars going to be parked for a bit.

Can anyone recommend any A/C cleaner? The Sonex one I was linked isn't available to purchase here. My car smells like musky ass whenever the AC turns on first, I've been told its most likely mold in the condenser.

Yes bacteria build up on your in cabin evaporator, it turns to black gungy mold cuz it is constantly wet. Smells like wet dog and ass. Short of stripping it and cleaning it with a mild solvent I don't think you can do much.. just blast that A/C Until it freezes and the smell goes away. Happens in houses too, you should see the state of a 10 year old "hepa-filtered" in home coil.

Congratulations on the baby. If this is your first child, the smell from the A/C is nuthin'. After a week of diapers, you won't even notice it.

I think I have to get my AC recharged or something, it's definitely not as cold as my 335i, which was freezing cold, but I'll try that. My friend recommended I use the recirculating mode and spray some Lysol in the foot well area.

Thank you, and yes first. Luckily it doesn't smell yet. However putting on diapers is really easy, I guess that the thing about guys having trouble is a stereotype for sure unless they were harder to put on back in the day

Drove to work today. Had some issues with service light coming on and reduced emissions light. Unfortunate as I just bought the car used.

Took mine for some fish and chips before the storms arrive...
