Dongar dash cam adapter installation. Anyone done it yet?

[HuntingPudel]

They do offer a rear cam as an option. Here's an example for a RAV4.

I’m getting a little happier that I haven’t gotten a dash cam yet. This looks so promising!

If you want an integrated camera that looks OEM, I’ve been working with Fitcamx on a prototype. Should be available this month.

I have a FitcamX in my Mini SE and was wondering if/when they'd do the same with the Mach-E!

Here's a youtube video of the FitcamX in the Mini (I'm sure the camera will be identical, since it's just the housing that changes per vehicle). In case anyone was wondering about quality (this is the 4K front, 1080p rear version):

Is that your mini? Why is the housing "split" like that, almost like it doesn't fully snap together?

No - not my mini. Maybe they just didn't snap it together super well.

@generaltso, any update on the Fitcamx version for the Mach-E?

They said they had problems with the original mold, so it will take a couple more weeks. I hope it's soon because I'm getting tired of looking at the horrible color of the 3D printed prototype.

Great, that just cost me ~$200

Really hoping @generaltso got the launch version and can share actual photos rather than renderings.

What are the 1 and 3 minute loop options? Will it continuously be recording on trips or just in 1 or 3 minute loops and you have to remember to hit a button to save that loop?

It’s on its way, but I don’t have it yet.

The loop options are just for setting the length of each clip before it creates a new video file. It will continuously record until the memory card is full, and then it will start overwriting the oldest files. You can also set it to permanently save files after it detects an impact so that files that potentially recorded an accident aren’t overwritten.

It‘s also available through their Amazon store if you’re into that sort of thing.

Should we be concerned they didn’t let you test the final version or just wing it and hope it’s great?

Awesome, makes sense, thanks for the explanation!
