Tryin to Add rear view camera to 2015 Cooper S Convertible

Thanks for taking a minute to read my question and post. I am trying to add a backup camera to my R57 Mini. Lots of Camera Options, but adding the video screen seems to be the challenge. I do not have Nav in my cooper s. I was thinking about modifying the mirror. It is a standard mirror without auto dimming. I was curious what others have done to add this feature to the car. Has anyone else modified the mirror to add the screen? Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi John
I added a camera to mine by linking it to the GPS. I bought a Garmin GPS and the BC-20 wireless camera. I had to install a relay to get it to work but overall it came out great and works well. If you need any more info let me know
