Just a quick follow up for what it's worth--per my previous posts, I've had side camera fogging problems since I bought our 2013 351ds. Tried replacing, drying and sealing but just took an 1100 mile trip and still had problems on the outbound trip. The heat from the engine is what causes the fogging by heating moisture in the camera and causing it to fog on the inside of the lens. Before leaving for the return leg I cut a piece of black foam pipe insulation into two, approximately 2 by 3 inch rectangles. I then cut halfway across each rectangle and slid the wire to each side camera into the center cut. I duct taped the insulation to the inside of the engine compartment over the area where the camera wire enters the compartment from the camera housing. As a result, the foam insulation keeps the engine heat from entering the camera through the opening to the housing and around the wire. I drove another 1100 miles on the return with no fogging at all. It's a cheap and easy fix and seems to work.
