I'd be interested to know what, if any, Dash Cam owners have fitted.
when I purchased my '17 GT the dealership offered to sell me a (fitted) dash cam with front and rear cameras - I really did not like the model or the price.
I did a bit of scouting about and eventually settled for the iRoad X9. I thought that the extra features (e.g. lane departure warning) would be useful - have not turned this on.
This is a front and rear system without a built-in screen but with a decent Android app/interface.
I fitted the front first and, several months later, the rear.
I am very happy with the installation as it does not take up a lot of space - the whole thing is quite discreet although it does have "Cylon" lights that flash.
With parking mode the camera records when the car is shut down and then automatically shuts itself off when battery output drops to a pre-defined level )you can adjust this setting).
I like the added security for parking - looks 'active'
I'm really happy with the kit for $600 however, I then purchased a Xiaomi 70mai for my wife's car for $40 - front only but super-impressive.
I bought this off ebay and the voice is all in Chinese/Mandarin - the seller refunded my $10 in compensation.
I was able to find an English firmware which I flashed it with and now the voice is in English - tells me when it's recording basically.
The wiring is all tucked away out of sight and it's plugged into a front USB so that it comes on when the car starts and turns off when the car is turned off - no parking mode etc.
It also has a smartphone app/interface.
However, for $30 I could not be happier.
So, if anyone is interested - the iRoad X9 is a great set up for front and rear, hardwired, parking mode etc. dash cam.
If you want el cheapo - the Xiaomi 70mai is a great buy for around the $45 mark (done pay $90 from Catch) - I've also see a similar dash cam at Supercheap for $129.00 - just differently branded. ANd, if you do opt for the Xiaomi 70mai and the voice is in Chinese - don't worry as all it does is tell you the camera is recording - your smartphone app/interface will still be in English.
I'd be interested to know anyone else's experience.
