I muted the video because I was cursing at the Jeep driver like a mother father.I recognize that intersection. Not because I've ever driven it, but because I've seen it in a few dashcam clips on youtube. Seems that a lot of people like to change lanes without warning in the middle of the turn.
Seconds earlier she cut in front of me!
Video quality looks excellent! Have been researching dash cams and have seen Viofo being mentioned a lot.Installed the front and the telephoto camera using a Dongar adapter from the rearview mirror. I still have to run the wire for the rear camera but I am too lazy.
Normal view vs telephoto view
I had a Garmin 57. Viofo feels to me like a big step forward. The audio seems a bit weaker than Garmin's audio but I can live with that. Bought the camera for the image, not for the sound. Today I managed to run the wire for the rear camera so now all three channels are up and running!
Go for it!
The price point is much higher but it’s starting to seem you get what you pay for, I’d rather not cheap out. Install was pretty straightforward? Where did you wire your power? Trying to avoid any exposed wires as much as possible, it would bug the hell out of me lol
Most definitely considering it!
I’ll take some pictures later today and try to show you how I did it.
Would be much appreciated! Thank you sir
This is excellent man, thanks so much for doing this! Really like how you wired everything up, had read about running the power off the rearview mirror so I think I'll definitely be doing the same -- last thing I want is a power cable dangling down from the camera plugging into the 12V lol. Think I'll be picking up a Viofo for mine and the lady's CX-5 once tax returns hit.
Finally had temps high enough to apply the weathertech bumper topper
Could you take some detailed pictures and elaborate on the mod? I've been flirting with this mod for a while now.
How was the spoiler install? Im doing the same one. I removed the tape and replaced it with authentic 3m trim tape. I plan on using a heat gun to warm the tape, and use panel prep on the paint contact area. Did you use a helper? Any tips ? A test fit led me to plan to just follow the v shape of the factory side spoilers.
For me, with a white car, I didn't like how you could see the car's white along the edges and across the back edge, under the new spoiler. I took with me to a local wrap shop, and they wrapped the original spoiler in black, just an inch or so in allowing the tape to stick directly on the spoilers paint.
I installed it alone, but if I was to do it again, I would ask someone to help. My spoiler fell right into place when test fitting, but it's hard to lineup the side edges evenly by yourself. I too bought 3M trim tape to install, but after speaking with a representative at 3M's automotive department, I went another route. He said that trim tape is not strong enough for spoiler installation. He suggested suggested 3M's 06392 along with adhesion promoter. I got both on ebay. I too used a heat gun on the tape and painted surface, and some strong homemade panel prep.
