Fitting a Flip down monitor in the rear

[x555]

[quote=""Sanj""][quote=""rconwa11""]the hardest thing about this install is finding any wiring that is 12v off the ignition in the rear of the car i need a ignition switched source does anyone have any suggestions ?[/quote]

Go for the relay holder that has nothing in it - left-most, centre pin in the on the top row. These are in the rear right fuse holder...

There is also an ignition live feed to the rcm in the boot as i used this one for my dvd players and amp it's the purple and white wire.

Where would I find this wire m8 I am not confident about wiring into the redundant relay slot as my car seems to have a relay in this section that sanj suggested

You got rear heated/electric seats or something? Would like to know what that relay is for???

Any extras on your car that are not the normal one's picked?

Sorry that doesn't work for you...

The cable is on the module in the boot under the spare and the compressor. You'll see it under the black plastic marked 'BMW' - get it off and the RCM (radio control module)is on the left. In the connector is that purple/white cable. Splice into that to get your power

Sanj was supposed to post this for me earlier but posted it in the wrong thread being the numpty he his

Oh bugger - and I knew I had posted for you!

Moved to over here:
