Default There is no display...only audible tones.
2006 had a visual display on the MMI and 2007+ has the rear camera plust the visual display.

Default Ah, I thought the visual display started in '05... Anyway to (easily) retrofit it into an '05?
An '05 with Parktronic, that is.

Default If it can be done, I'd imagine it would be cosly and time consuming.
No one that I know of has done it. Would require new MMI and PDC software plus hardware for both.

Default I was looking for the same info and found this thread.....
....I haven't bothered to figure out whether it's really as simple as adding the extra module and updating the MMI software, but this thread makes it seem that way. Of course it could be something specific to Euro cars since most of these owners seem to be in the UK/EU.

<a href="http://navplus.us/forums/showthread.php?t=6694">Navplus forum thread</a>

I would be interested to hear if anyone here in the US has done this.
