08 E92 coupe Rear camera to navigation screen?

Currently have 08 3 series coupe with navigation.
Is it possible to hook up rear camera to navigation LCD? I want to view rear when put it on reverse.
Shipped my car to Korea and its PIA to park here(99% parallel/back park).
I'm planning to use my GS3 for nav. Really dont want to add 3rd screen to dashboard(GS3, U.S Only Nav, and screen for rear camera). Also planning to add blackbox. Its going to be mess.

Not 100% sure, but I believe there is some type of add-on for the newer idrives. Not sure if it's possible on the older version...

No way to just tap in to video in(does it have one?)
Really dont want to pay $300 for multimedia interface.

One option I found was to add
2ch blackbox with 2.7inch lcd built into rear view mirror($150)
2.7inch seems too small. Think I can park with this?

Retrofit the parking sensors? No screens but it'll beep.

I've never been a fan of an lcd built into the rear view mirrior, but that's just me.

As far as tapping into the idrive, there have been a few posts about it. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showth...ar+view+camera
