Dash cam install Viofo A119 v3

- Just a quick run through of how to install a dash cam. In this instance, I'm putting in the VIOFO A119 v3. I have put this in another vehicle and was impressed with the video and the ease of installation. The included user manual does lack detail since you could put this in any vehicle and they're all going to be different. This is an install in a 2020 GMC Sierra 1500. As always, thanks for watching and let me know if you have any questions or comments!
Great vid, I followed a similar method and you helped me come up with a solution I wanted for my Forester. Didn't want to mess with hard wiring + sticking a box in my fuse box. Running the cable underneath looks really clean and apart from the small wire exposed near the infotainment, this is a pretty simple and elegant setup.
Glad to help out!
Nice video Phil. Straight forward and no filler. Appreciate you taking the time to put this together!
Thanks! I try to cut out the stuff that's not needed. Plus, who wants to see or hear me cussing when I can't figure something out or take 2 hours for a 15 minute job because I'm AR?
@@phil_hazzy I agree. Good video. I’m so tired of all these gimmicks and sick music and crazy stuff. Just tell me about the product.
Simple details to show your device and slow down speed of taking to process installing…I really need kind of help like this 👍thanks
Top tier video, thanks man 👍🏽
Thanks for the compliment!
You're the man Phil
Thanks buddy!
Thank you, it helped me a lot during the installation! :)
Someday a car designer will have an epiphany & suggest putting a port right where we plug in dash cameras. >BINGO!< Right next to the inside rear view mirror. I got a dash camera almost 9 years ago & halfway through running the cable from the top of the windshield to inside the center console between the seats I quit & put it in my junk pile.
Most run power to the mirror anyways so it wouldn't be hard!
I wonder what these black soft pads are for?
Die kommen unter die Halterung (einclipsen) er Kamera. Ein Vibrationsschutz damit das klemmen nicht wackelt. Bei alten Diesel zum Beispiel wichtig
Thanks for doing this.
Thank you for the clear presentation. It is quite helpful. I just have one question. Does the camera automatically overwrite the old video when the SD car gets full? So we don't have to worry about running out of space. Thanks 🙂
Yes. The camera overwrites the oldest footage. The card I have in there goes for days so get the biggest one you can afford!
All dash cameras do that
what are the black felt pads for? where do you stick those?
I'm not sure I know what you're referring to but in the kit I had there were small pieces to help route the wire. Maybe that's what you're seeing.
Good explanation. Thank you
Can you copy from Dash cam to cellphone with different cable?
Maybe but I never tried. I'd imagine you could attach it as an external drive and use a file explorer to find the video. You'd need a weird cable though that I don't think I've ever seen.
Thanks for the video👍Quick question, how would you take off the GPS module? Not sure if that's doable.
Are you asking about moving in between vehicles or just leaving it out of the installation? You can carefully pry it off the windshield to install in another vehicle. I've done it. If leaving out of the installation, there are a couple different bases to use so the gps isn't required.
Sometimes have the muc turn on inside heads because it can get the sound of your car being hit I was seating at a red light someone hit my tail end inside mic picked up the sound
Does the tape that sticks to the windshield hold up in high heat? I live in TX and I had a couple phone mounts on the dash and the heat melts the glue.
I live in Fort Worth. It gets plenty hot here! No issues.
@@phil_hazzy Perfect, I live in Corsicana so same weather. I just ordered one but I went for the duo plus... be here in a couple days. 😁
So installing it like this (as opposed to the hardwire kit) parking mode will not work, correct? I know some cars are different, but with mine the 12v lighter plug doesn’t receive power when the ignition is off. Nice straight forward video.
You would be correct.
How do you remove the hard plastic housing(?) on the pillar? Idk what tools to do that task :(
There are two small covers that need to be pulled off to access the screws behind them that hold the plastic pillar cover in place. They are a bit difficult to remove and I thought it was more trouble than it was worth so I just routed the wire in the gap above and pulled the door sill gasket out and routed it behind that way.
any clips i should buy to keep the wire out of my way while driving?
If I recall correctly, the kit came with clips to hold the wire. As I showed in my video, I just tucked it into the headliner and haven't had any issues.
Hello. Nice video. Thank you. 1 question. You mounted the cam real high I see. Does the wipers outside clean the glass in the canera section? My wipers dont come that high
My wipers clean that area. I'd make sure you put the camera where the wipers clean too. My truck sits somewhat high so I have the camera angled to look over the hood and still see anything that happens close to the front of the truck.
great video thanks
Can you still add the rear camera if you got the one for VIOFO a129 ?
Yes, you can add a rear camera with the a129. I believe Amazon sells a kit for that as well as direct from Viofo.
Thanks
How easy is it to uninstall and move between cars?
I've permanently removed the gps base and stuck it in another vehicle without issues!
Why do you installed behind the rearview mirror instead below the rearview mirror?
Out of my sight lines! I don't need to see it and I want it up as high as possible to give the best field of view over the hood.
I'll be doing this in the next day or two. Got the same cam. You liking it so far?
I do like it. The best part is you don't even know it's there! I've reviewed footage and it's got a great camera but hopefully I'll never have to use it. But it's good insurance in case it's needed.
Thanks very helpful
It doesn't give you the option of getting power from a fuse tap-in?
They sell a kit that does allow you to tap into a fuse which I did with a later update.
Now does this installation enable parking mode for motion detection?
You'll need to use the hardwire kit or test to see if your 12v has power when the key is off.
Great video...iam a newbie, what's the use of GPS mount? can we stick without GPS mount? I mean my car doesn't have inbuilt gps, I use my phone.
So if gps mount can we get gps on the cam? Iam really very confused...please enlighten me
Sure! GPS will record data such as where action is happening along with speed. Good info to have especially in cases of hit and run or just when you need to review footage it can tell you where it happened.
@@phil_hazzy Thank you!! so much for your prompt reply.
I just got my A119 V3, so did you use those electrostatic stickers that it came with?
Thanks! I guess the plastic shoe horn that comes with it is for prying off the gps module?
nope.its to install the wire under the cars panels or rubber trim.
Hi, does it turn off automatically when you turn the car off?
Hey Zach! If you install it this way it will shut off with the car. I've since hardwired the unit in so it's always on.
Hello, i really like the video performance from this a119 v3. But since this viofo a119 v3 doesnt come with rear cam, can i install another a119 v3 as rear cam? Can it be done to do recording at the same time with the front cam, which is same model? Well, but yah, i not mind if it cant recording at the same time, as long its work and recording, just that if can then much better.
Sorry for asking difficult question. If the idea is ok then i probably get another 1 a119 v3.
Yes, there's a rear camera available. Search for it on Amazon or Google. Looks to be an easy addition to record at the same time.
@@phil_hazzy Great, thank you👍
What’s the little ziploc bag with the two stickers and string for? I just got this camera and I have no clue what it’s for
The stickers are for mounting in other vehicles. You'll lose the GPS portion without the base. I'm guessing the string is too help remove the sticker if you're selling the car and or replacing the windshield.
Do i need to charge it or does it always need to be connected?
It's always connected. This is not a wireless camera.
Can the camera be adjusted after it’s mounted? Also, I thought you had the GPS module but I didn’t see it at the end of the video.
Yes the camera can be adjusted after installation. You can do it either with the camera mounted or just slide it off the base and adjust it. I do have the GPS. It's the small black piece on the windshield.
Did you not want to go down the hardwire route? You've got good access to your fuse box so would be a pretty easy install.
You are correct. I go right past the fuse panel. I may go back and change it eventually.
@@phil_hazzy - how are you finding it so far, I'm considering purchasing one but I'm not so keen on how it looks.
@@phil_hazzy Same, I'm going to start with what it comes with and think about a hard wire later. It looks easy, but not cigarette lighter easy. ha.
What size of memory are u using
@@jayantkumar1741 I'm using 32gb. Amazon has a 2 for 1 sale.
Phil, is this camera turns on when you start the engine and it will turn off when the ignition key will be off? Thank you
I have the camera set to turn off with the key. I've made a change to the plug so that it works with the key. From the factory, that plug is on all the time.
@@phil_hazzy That's all I need to know. I properly will wire to the ignition with a camera fuse. My Garmin does need a special cable or it will not turn on with wiring to the vehicle ignition. Thank you very much for the information.
Mines only stays turned on when the car is on, am I missing something?
It's where you plugged or wired in to. That particular circuit only has power when your key is on. You'll need one with continuous power to be on all the time.
So I currently have it connected to the cigar outlet, where should I connect it to instead?
@@alexurieta2485 they make a hard wiring kit for it but you'll need to test circuits till you find one that's always on instead of on with the key. I'm surprised your cigar lighter isn't always on though.
did you plug it into the cigarette lighter via USB?
Originally I did. I passed the wire directly by the fuse box so I've since hardwired it into the truck. I'm my wife's vehicle, it's plugged into a USB port.
@@phil_hazzy is there any Amazon link you can give me too hardwire it in? The ones they recommend only have 1 of each and I heard you need 2 of each depending on how new or old your car is? Gonna stick too USB for now but hardwire it in later. The hardwire is also used for parking mode right?
Can I connect the camera to my phone? I would like to see a live picture when I am inside, who is walking around my property. Is that possible?
It is not possible with this model camera. I have installed another one that it is possible with.
@@phil_hazzy Thank you. Which one would that be? I mean, which camera or which video? Thanks a lot. ☺🐰❤
Do you have to add anything for the parking mode
Nope. As long as it has continuous power, it'll work.
so does it need to be hard wired
@@SrtSteve it doesn't need to be. My plug is always on. You could also check your USB ports if they have constant power as that's the plug from the camera.
👍
I got a clear piece of plastic with my camera that said it was an "electrostatic Sticker". It said to and apply it to the windshield before attaching the adhesive camera mount. Does it clean the windshield? Or is it supposed to stay on the glass?
Mine is still in the windshield.
@@phil_hazzy so the sticker goes between the camera and the glass?
@@justsomeguy934 goes between the mount for the camera and the glass.
@@phil_hazzy thanks!
What sd card you go with?
Limited-time deal: KOOTION 32GB Micro SD Card 2-Pack Class 10 Micro SDHC Card UHS-I Memory Card Ultra High Speed TF Card, C10, U1, 32 GB www.amazon.com/dp/B07WG2RJV5/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_i_dl_RJDSVENDY07JQM6Q0WCS?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Don't know what type of quality it is but I haven't had any problems with the cards.
I'm gonna buy one but... pleeeeease let me know if this camera speaks.
I am just firing my 70mai, killing me with those broken chinese-english announcements.
Btw, the bagged accessories would worth unpacking so we could see them. And I'm curious how the polar filter would work.
The camera doesn't speak. It's a quiet observer. I didn't get the optional filter. The footage it records is very crisp though as it is. There were clips and extra stickums in the bag. I didn't use any of them on either vehicle I installed on.
@@phil_hazzy thanks Phil, just one more question if you don't mind please say something about the compression of the saved videos. I mean an average xx MB/minutes.
In the 70mai universe, it is an existing problem after 2 months of normal use, that the 256 GB card is almost full of false parking alarm videos in the protected folder: one-minute videos, 90MB each...
Anyway, the source of this problem is compression, clearly.
@@huntahthereal I can't speak technical terms since it's not my expertise but I have a 32GB card and it has at least 90 minutes of video. I have mine cut in 3 minute segments but it's a setting you can change. Haven't had any issues though since installation.
Thanks
