Dash/rear cameras

I did a bit of searching, but didn't find much. I am interested in hearing if any of you have these and how they fit in the Coupe. Not to much of an issue with the front, but am curious about a rear facing camera.

Thanks in advance.

Here is one by MINI:

You just need to angle it for the coupe. There is a kit with a rear one linked also. Its a smaller version.

Perhaps a naive question, but why a front facing camera?

These are big overseas as dash cams can record driving accidents (huge in Russia) and they have a sensor to kick on when the car moves and is locked/turned off. Like a motion camera for your car.

You didn't mention if you had a sat/nav system or not. With a sat/nav there's several systems from Nav-TV and others that will interface a backup camera, DVD player or even Apple TV. Some also include wireless mirroring of your phone. Without sat/nav the options range from replacing your speed-o with a Seicane unit down to joey a Bluetooth camera to an android or iPod. All it takes is money and time.
