Can anyone recommend someone who could retrofit surround view please?

Thanks

I'd suggest its not really viable:

As a minimum:

2 new mirrors (with cameras)

1 front bumper (with cameras)

New centre console (with the extra button)

That's just the obvious hardware. Wiring and software coding etc will be extra.

Probably better to find another car that has it if you must have it.

It is good though!

Ahhh okay. Came across a blog online and thought it could be done for less than £2k. Reached out to a retrofit specialist after an online search but no reply as yet. If it’s 1-2k then fine but anything more then yes worth looking for a car with the options.

As GTEYE mentioned, probably not worth it. You can get third party Carplay mods which can retrofit front/rear cameras but I stopped myself after realising I'm too old to do endless tinkering in the car and keeping up with software updates etc. They may suit you though? Here's an example https://www.bimmer-tech.net/category-bmw-carplay-m...
