BMW E60/E65/E66 | Night Vision Camera (NiVi) | Repair Guide
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
This is how to repair your NiVi camera. Basically it is polishing camera lens to mirror shine.
Note: use some flat surface when grinding the lens with sand paper - the surface of lens after grinding needs to be perfectly flat! It is very important, because if you make it rounded on the edges or in the middle it will distort the image!

Good work Andrius. Thanks for sharing. Could you please give some advice what to use after 2000 grit to get perfect shine on the lens surface? Cheers mate

After grit use some polishing liquid to make it shiny like mirror. Other thing is that you need it to sand it very straight (camera lens surface should be completely flat), to achieve it, remove camera from car, put some sand paper on flat surface (flat table or so), then by hand move camera lens over the sand paper.
How can we polish it like that?
Sveiki, what city are you located? Can you do this for my E60?
Sveikas. Gal gali plačiau papasakot ką naudojai prieš valydamas ? Pas mane irgi problema kad ji užsinešusi yra.
Do you need to Take out The camera?
Mine is complete black screen, i can see nothing, did you think that is because of that, my lens is very bad like yours.
Thanks a lot, but where can I find the camera?

Camera is located near the fog light in the front bumper. But night vision system is an option, so make sure you have this option in your car.

If installing, does this need to be coded in to the head unit?

@ HI, did it as you described it. The lens is glossy again but reflects without that gold hue. What strikes me is that the contrast and resolution has worsened. Before you have seen outlines of cars now it looks rather cloudy. Was that the same with you ?? How long have you polished in each step? Still have some deep craters in the lens. Thanks and regards Tobias
