PDC retrofit

[greenfunk]

Hey guys!

I just got my car and because i bought a demo unit so i had to take whatever the car has, eg. wood trim, nevada leather.
Which personally if i could opt out i would cos the normal black trim and the sensatec leather is good enough and i wouldnt have to pay more for the options.
But the strange thing is, my car came with only rear PDC. So I was trying to get the sales exec to retrofit the front PDC but she says that they can do this cos of i dunno what reason cos when she said no i didnt bother to hear the rest of her explanation.

Shouldn't they be able to install locally the PDC for the rear since they always say they can locally fit a GPS or reverse camera.
I know ya'll must be thinking wth PDC in the front for what.
My driving and parking sucks so I need it :S HAHAHA.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Re: PDC retrofit

Installing oem ones that looks like original is difficult cos your front bumpers has no holes for it.

But you can consider installing those concealed ones.... for $150 to $200.

Better still, install a front and a rear view camera.... seeing is believing. I have it this way in my E60.

Retrofit for the front pdc can be done.. but it will cost alot.. esp if its with idrive display.
My M3 suppose to come with PDC for the front, but it did not.. Munich has to retofit it for me. that involves new bumper, and new panel in centre console for the pdc button. having front PDC is very convenient and lot of cars nowadays comes with it..
