I am now considering running a video cable front to rear to replace the transmit/receive pair. I have a very short delay when engaging reverse for the camera output to appear on the MMI. Not sure if this is the addon units fault or the Tx/Rx pair. I'll try a long video cable outside the car to rule out the Tx/Rx pair. Hope that makes sense.
Makes sense Ray. Mine has a slight delay too, I attributed it to the 2G MMI, which isn't exactly snappy.

Edit, see video to illustrate:
