Wow 4K for a dash cam? My TV is not even at 4K yet. Lol. Anyhow, my current dashcam is still holding up very well, as in it still turns on, records, etc. And it's been a few years now. Quick Tip: A clean windshield will automatically improve the recordings tremendously.

 

This is what I am using mow. Not 4K, but I found quality is pretty good with original avi format. Getting license information and other general details without any issue. But posting via youtube with compression has huge impact on quality. This is what I am using:

 

This is the website I used for research: https://dashcamtalk.com/best-dash-cams-of-2018/

I chose a Street Guardian unit based on the great reviews and I have not been disappointed.

 

Sorry to bring up an old thread. I am currently running an invsacord off the mirror to power my radar detector. You think I can tap the same power source to power my dash cam without overloading the circuit? or should I wire the dashcam from a separate power source?

 

 

I'd be surprised if both devices drew more than 3/4 of an amp... you should be find running it with Invisicord.

A lot of dash-cams run off USB type power (5V) so you would need their dashcam cord

 

Bad day for the deer and the Honda. Good day for me and my GX to be a few seconds behind. I have noticed the new Rexing 4K dash cam has a significantly better microphone than my last camera.

Leaving the hood the other day. I didn't see the dog get loose, just the owner yell and put his hand up. The dog shook it off and the owner waved me on.

 

Looks like from this old Koz post the following was added as well on the '12s

"• New rearview mirror with illuminated garage door opener buttons"

I was aware rearview mirror was different as electrical connector was different as tecman reported on his '11. I hand't notice the illuminated garage door opener buttons though

 

I am considering install a 2ch dash cam but not sure if I should do it myself or pay an installer for the job. It seems routing rear cam cable require removing several panels including rear door.

1. Do you have to remove the garnish trims near roof or you can just pry a gap to stuck the cable in?
2. How do you guys run your wires in back?
3. If I have an installer do it, how much do you think it will cost? Does dealer do this?
4. Can you recommend me an installer in Southern California area who is familiar with our car? I hate to have a bunch of broken clips or scratched panel.

 

 

Thank you for the information. Is the $500 labor only? How much did you pay for the parts? Where did they mount the rear camera? Is it on the rear door upper garnish trim?

 

It was $500 out the door. Cash. Price of camera included.

 

That is a steal consider DR900S-2CH has a suggest retail price of $499. Not to mention you probably need additional coaxial cable due our car length. I will definitely give them a call tomorrow.
