Shawn is correct For the rear only it doesn't affect the ICM, however if you also add the front PDC, the PDC button for the center console gets wired in to the ICM under the center armrest/parking brake.

As for the REM, once you install the new one you will need to generate the new CAFD for it. Once you get it in I can help with that. |

Roxxor shows the 175 above without the PDC connector and the 700 that has the PDC connector. I have the 61359329702 with no PDC connector, and when i do a search on the 700 on Ebay, the search returns two other REMs: 61359329701 and also the 61359329704 that both have the PDC connectors. There's OEM part numbers and interchange part numbers, and supposedly all these are compatible with the F30. But of course the 175, 701, 704, and even my own 702 don't show up in Realoem.com Ahhhhggggghhhh |

lots of us also use tischer BMW at getbmwparts.com as they have the best prices i've seen for OEM parts... item not found. This BMW dealership out of Atlanta that keeps popping up on searches... part not found. So several of us have been speaking from experience, things are different for us on these retrofit cables in the US. Please post the dealership & the price you paid. I ended up ordering my retrofit cables from Bimmertech & paid about $700 for 3 cables. so please let us know what dealer you found b/c i want to order future retrofit cables & don't want to pay Patryk's prices. It wasn't exactly an easy process either & took about 2-3 weeks to get my cables. |

I just ordered my 66202339614 rear pdc retrofit cable/kit from Partsale.eu (same place roxxor ordered some of his parts). It was only 87 euro ($93 usd) for the cable. I'm getting tired of this us/non-us part availability BS...

Im still waiting for it to arrive but once they do ill take a picture of the invoice for you. another thing you can try is ordering the cable itself instead of the kit part number is this: 61122295873 I didnt see this part number until after i ordered 66202339614 but according to my dealer that i go to 66202339614 is $138 for the whole kit (which is just a manual, the cable and cable ties) 61122295873 is $76 just the cable. Not sure if the manual and zip ties are worth double the price...but that is what it is... these prices are in Canadian...and it went up cause our dollar has gone to shit....will probably be cheaper for you guys down in the states asuming your dealer can get it for you. if your dealer still cant find it send me a pm. i can give you a contact at my local dealership and maybe they will ship it down to you guys. |

In my research I came across 61119293040 for rear PDC repair wire. I wonder if that is the american equivalent of 61122295873. i am tempted to buy it just to see. It's fairly cheap. I figure there has to be a part out there for a rear end accident that ruins the wiring.

The other two cables in the diagram (1 and 2) are over a hundred dollars each and seem more like what is needed, but i don't recognize those part numbers either. They are not the 614 we've been talking about |

The kit also included the 4 rubber de-coupling rings for the PDC sensors, FWIW Shazsta is correct, partsale.eu is who I have used for all of the retrofit parts I have not been able to get from BMW dealers state-side. There is a tad bit of a language lost in the translation just because they are based overseas, but I've had nothing but positive experiences in my orders. As for the REM, just going off of what my best educated guess is, but it appears that the differences between the parts (701, 702, etc) is that they have different pin configurations for different Vehicle Options. So vehicles that did not come from the factory with PDC would not have a REM that has the pin-outs for it. The reason I ended up going with the 700 is that it has every pin output available on the REM, essentially a "fully-loaded" F30's REM. Therefore, it would have the PDC and any other pins needed if I ever decided to retrofit anything else involving the REM. In checking on google, it looks like the 700 part #'s have been superseded to 61359362394, meaning you probably can't order the 700 new anymore. Unfortunately, without an image of the new one to go by to see the pins, I can't vouch that it is the same. |

I don't want any additional unanticipated problems as this is right at the edge of what my comfort level is as far as retrofitting goes. The fact that this retrofit is not "available" for F30's in the US made me nervous from the get go. On top of that, having to replace something as critical as the factory REM with a new part, then having to code that new FA option in... puts me right at the edge of the cliff if you know what i mean. Any more surprises, and i'm bolting Ultimately, what i'm really after is the OEM rear camera for safety reasons. And since this rear PDC is a pre-req, this is really just a stepping stone towards my final goal. I know i coulda gone the Bimmertech route, but i'm trying to do this in the most cost-effective way as possible. Plus its kinda fun to tackle these types of projects. I always learn a TON. But.... I never would have even contemplated this retrofit had you not blazed the trail first, and got it working. So for that, i am and will be eternally grateful!!! Btw... where is koch92? Did he ever get his rear PDC working after coding? Haven't heard anything... |

Hi,
I had my car retrofitted with front & rear PDCs, as well as cameras. I ordered the parts that Roxor recommended; used PartsSale as well for those that I couldn't get in US from ECS Tuning. While I am still having some challenges with the cameras, the PDCs are working like champs! Be happy to provide, if you can't find them:
BTW, have found the PDCs to be very handy!

Cool beans. When you say cameras do you mean you did top view too?

Definitely! I'd like to compare it to the list of parts that roxxor provided to see if anything has been superceded or other alternate part numbers will work also. I think anyone doing this retrofit would benefit from your list. Thanks!!
