I've been playing with the idea of installing a dashcam. A couple of weeks ago, I was in my uncle's truck and he had this one installed:
It's really good looking in the car. The live rear view is sharp and gives you a much better, much wider field of view than the standard mirror. Using it as a backup camera is also great. It's normally pretty easy for me to back up into spots, but when I have my dog in the car, she likes to stand on the armrest while I'm reversing which means I can't see shit behind me.
Anyone running one of these? I was thinking about eventually upgrading my '15 to the newer version of Sync so that I could install a PnP backup camera, but this seems like a far easier option and has the front and rear dashcam which I really like.
Just looking for feedback on this one or this style as well as any install ideas. Not sure where the rear camera would mount. I'm sure I could remove one of the license plate lights but I'm not sure if that's legal.
Thanks.
