The cameras are there. The wires are there. The capture and display are there. They data storage is there. This would be more than a code as it would need a software patch, is my guess, but BMW should do it. Is there a way to petition them?

I don't think BMW will ever make their original cameras recordable - privacy laws are so volatile, they could find themselves in a position to sell a legal car today and to require a mandatory recall one year later in some countries because privacy laws changed there.
For instance, dashcams have become illegal (!) in Portugal, go figure why there and not in neighboring Spain...
