Hi everyone! I just posted an update video where I tried to answer common questions (overheating, adapter quality, other dash cam compatibility, etc) about this mod, and talked about how it has held up after a few months in my truck. Check out the video here if you'd like: kzitem.info/news/bejne/rq2Esn-tgWqDZpw Thanks for watching! ❤️

Aim the camera down a bit more, so not as much of the sky is in it, this will help the camera adjust it's white balance for the road & cars rather than the sky.

Nice plug and play intro video. I do say that having a dash cam these days is a must have. I love that there is a power source via an adapter that's readily available, makes doing this so much easier. As for the seat patterns, I like the dark perforated leather (third from the bottom). Thanks Chloe and please keep up with content, its much appreciated.

I recorded my first crash between a motorcycle fleeing police and a young couple going to dinner. Had a few close calls but I am happy that I have had a camera in use, but never needed it yet. Thank you for the info. Very informative. Keep it up.

Hey Chloe , Everyone does not have a power setup behind their rear view mirror and also the dash cam is great unless you get hit from the rear or the sides, then it still becomes a my word against theirs battle, I recommend the Vantrue N2 Pro The camera views the front, Back, and Side windows and you can also see what you were doing at the time of the accident.

hello Chloe, great videos. I have a few dash cams on my cars and pick-up, always annoyed by the dangling wires, the latest dash cam I bought for my 16 Taco has a mile long wire, been putting off installing the dash cam due to this issue, but thanks to your video, my dangling wire issues is solved with your lead . thanks again. keep up the great work. BTW, try lifting off the gas pedal when the tach gets to 1800 rpms every gear, this will help to shift up to 6th gear much sooner when freeway driving, and you should get over the 22-24 mpg range, maybe better with the air filter mod your taco have.

I like the synch function and again, the small form factor.
