Just curious. I found a local installer place that said If I do the research, they will do the install. I thought I had read someplace, that if I already have the rear view camera, I would not need to install a different controller for surround view.

I welcome any instructions, videos, links, brainstorms!

Thanks!
Surround view retrofit on G30 is not trivial. I recommend contacting www.bimmer-tech.net before spending too much time on this.

Assuming it can be done (meaning programming can be done for your VIN and current options) here's a short and incomplete list of the parts required.

Surround camera module
Cameras
Retrofit HSD cables (camera to module) (custom order)
Mirror housings that support camera
Front grill that supports camera
It's going to be a lot more expensive than you're expecting. Which is to be expected. 😄
