I got 10 dollars used mirror from junk yard and made a metal plate. Convert a wolfbox T10 and a Toguard CE70. Both are looking good. Thanks for your video.
Hi HHHogan L! awesome, glad to hear it helped, Cheers!
I bought this and installed it myself and so far I’ve been very happy with it. It looks stock. I have a Subaru with eyesight so mounting dash cams that don’t get in the way of the optical cameras is a challenge.
Nice! Yeah this dash cam is definitely a hidden gem in my opinion, people often think it came stock with my car (and on a side note Auto-Vox is an OEM supplier for car makers that use LCD mirrors) Congrats on your new mirror dash cam Mark, Cheers!
I really wish these higher end Mirror dashcams included a headlight input trigger to dim the screen down to a user settable level at night (brighter screen in the day), or to just turn the screen on at night and off in the day and use it as a regular mirror in the day.
A ambient light sensor would suffice for the screen dimming,
Another cool feature would be an alarm trigger wire.
You could tie into an alarm's proximity/ shock sensor or even a horn to record an event. There are times the internal parking mode g-sensor might not detect something that would otherwise set off a car alarm. A trigger tied to the alarm sensors would force the camera to record anytime the alarm goes off.
Or by using the Horn, anytime you honk at an incident while driving (which is a natural reaction 90% of the time) the dashcam would again forcibly record a clip.
Just two ideas I've often thought of when using my mirror dashcam.
Hi HAMMER! a yes the V5 Pro does have an ambient
light sensor to automatically adjust the brightness (so far the only dash cam mirror I have found that has it as mention in my full review for it) but I do like the trigger wire idea to interface to an alarm system (would probably require dash cam manufacturers and alarm manufacturers to agree on how that trigger wire would work and when and what alarm systems would include a trigger out, the horn idea would be the easiest assuming the alarm triggers the horn), will definitely mention this to the dash cam manufacturers I'm usually in contact with. Cheers Bud!
Hi from the UK Alex. Just found your channel on here. Great content and deffo gonna check out your other reviews 👍. I've been looking at mirror dash cams for some time but most are not suitable for my vehicle (SAAB 9000 Aero) for one reason or another. This dash cam looks great as its direct mount, although I'm not sure if it will work on the SAAB as the OE mirror mounts to the ceiling instead of the windscreen. Other than that my other question is how does this function as a standard rear view mirror when the LCD is off? The OE mirror is the type where you can flick a lever on the mirror to prevent headlight dazzle at night. Can this mirror do this, or do you have to turn the LCD rear view on and use the auto dimming feature? Cheers
Hi David! Thank you! and yes here is the full review video for it czcams.com/video/Yk2EEacXZ7g/video.html where you can see how it looks when the LCD panel is off (reverts back into a mirror) I always use mine with the LCD panel on but yes some people do use it like a normal mirror (LCD panel off). Regarding glare from headlights, there is no secondary mirror built in (the lever you are referring to) Since I use mine with the LCD panel on I don't get much glare since I'm looking at a video screen not the actual reflection but if using it as a normal mirror then yes the potential for glare is there for sure. Hope this helps, Cheers!
That's v useful Alex. So best to use it in LCD mode at night. Many thx.
@@davideverett9848 You're welcome!
Would you recommend these for the corolla HB 22? Would the LDA Kramer a case be on the way of this camera?
Hi KiKo! yes it totally fits the HB like a glove! I just posted a picture of it if you want to how it looks if you go to my channel home page, then click on Community and you will see the post. Hope this helps, Cheers!
Hi, excellent review, just one question is it possible to keep the rear camera on at all times when driving. Thanks
Thank you! And yes that actually how I use mine with the rear view on all the time. Cheers!
@@AlexAutoFun Cheers!
Hi Alex great video. Do you have a video that specifically gives more details on how the parking mode works? I cannot figure out how it works. So its on and set on low. When you leave the dash cam on it still continues to record even when you park and exit the car. It does not automatically shut off .
Question 1. When you get out of the car if you switch the dashcam off with the off button on the underside of it and lock the doors. If there is a bump will it record still?
Question2 - . When you park do you stop the recording so the red dot is no longer there but leave the dash cam on so the parking mode will work? When I do so I notice the screen is still on and the camera still transmitting. Won't this drain the battery?
Question 3. Can you do a video on how to set the parking mode so the dash cam goes off when you leave the car so the battery doesn't drain but will come on if something happens.
Also when I tested bumping the car it starts recording but keeps on recording. Should it not stop after a while.
I want to use the parking mode but just don't know how to set and use it so the battery doesn't drain.
Thanks
Thank you! Ah yes regarding parking mode, the screen should turn off automatically when the car is turned off and the dash cam should enter park mode. I would have the installer check all the connections (ACC, BATT & GND) to confirm that they connected to the correct locations for ACC and BATT (I seen cases where the dash cam stays on constantly and does not enter park mode if ACC and BATT are reversed or connected to the incorrect locations that does not provide power at the correct time for both ACC and BATT) Here is my follow up detailed hardwire install if you want to see that process czcams.com/video/K2iKXj82354/video.html Cheers!
Does it work for a 2015 Jeep Wrangler is there an adapter thank you
Hi Ton! It comes with an assortment of adapters to fit multiple cars, here is the full review for it czcams.com/video/Yk2EEacXZ7g/video.html if you want to see them to compare to your car And here is my follow up video czcams.com/video/TtjZ7rC_ncY/video.html showing the adapters in more detail at the 7:50 mark. Hope this helps, Cheers!
Can you use this as a regular mirror while driving? I wanted a front camera to help me park but dont want another monitor on the dashboard. Do you think this is a good choice for that or what would youu recommend as you've reviewed so many products? Thank you in advance. ❤
Hi Trang! Correct, you can use it with the screen off (so it works like a regular mirror) while still recording. But yeah I would say a mirror dash cam is a good way to add cameras to your car while avoiding a secondary monitor. And I have more mirror dash cam reviews on my channel in the playlist "Dash Cams Reviews" if you like to compare them. Hope this helps, Cheers!
@AlexAutoFun Thank you much for your quick reply. I will use your link when purchasing to support your channel 😊 🥰
@@trang8735 You're welcome Trang and thank you for supporting the channel! 😊
Hey love the content... one question. My van top screen is broken. Is there another back up digital mirror that I can just use with the same wires of the van top?
Hi Stephlex! where you running the Vantop H612T?
@@AlexAutoFun yes
@@stephlexg5700 Ok there are actually several good choices, to narrow them down, is the red wire connected to the tail light of the car (for the parking assist function)?
@@AlexAutoFun yea it is
@@stephlexg5700 Ok take a look at the Carchet czcams.com/video/bkzxrPe-e_8/video.html or Fitcamx czcams.com/video/ZUUZIcKD_mg/video.html if you want the Wifi option. Hope this helps, Cheers!
the compass with car keeps coming on my screen , i put "driving mode" off but still comes on .. any way to delete
Hi Gary! I would double check that "LCD Power Save" is off as well as "Driving Mode" if you want to have the LCD panel on all the time. If you are still having trouble I would perform the "Reset Setup" to fully reset the dash cam. And if you are still unable to turn off the compass, I would also recommend contacting Auto-Vox for support, they may be able to walk you thru some troubleshooting steps. Hope this helps, Cheers!
Does this dash cam record what is driving up behind you, thx
Hi Manvet 67! Yes it record both the front and rear camera at the same time while driving. Hope this helps, Cheers!
Just bought and installed this camera works great with one exception it does not seem to set the gps time to pacific time zone does anybody know how to do that?
Hi Paul! You can see how to set the time zone at the 6:35 mark. Hope this helps, Cheers!
@@AlexAutoFun mine will not sync up with the gps so when I turn the car the time appears 3 hours off I have read the instructions seen at least 10 videos on this tried turning gps sync off and it still does it even if I set the time manually
@@paulabes4220 Hi Paul! Interesting, sounds like the GPS is not getting a good signal. I would check the GPS connection and the orientation of the GPS antenna (it has to be facing up with a clear view of the sky) Are the rest of the settings lost too? I'm also thinking the dash cam maybe is not getting power when the car is off which would cause it to reset to it's defaults every time the car is turned off. I would also recommend contacting your installer or Auto-Vox for help, I'm sure they can walk you thru the troubleshooting process. Hope this helps and please keep us posted. Cheers!
@@AlexAutoFun yes checked all everything works as it should except the gps time zone setting I am going to call tech support thanks for your input.
@@paulabes4220 You're welcome! I hope it get's resolved fairly easily 😀
Where to buy from please
Hi Simba! I put the links to the dash cam in the video description and here is my full review for it czcams.com/video/Yk2EEacXZ7g/video.html Cheers!
Can you turn off the startup sound every time you turn on the car
Hi Musikeye! Correct, the startup sound can be turned off by turning the Volume Off in the settings menu. Hope this helps, Cheers!
Awesome!! now I’m really convinced. Thank you a lot
@@musikeye9651 You're welcome!
Are there 4k mirrors with just 1 wire like this one? Tons of 4k options on amazon but soooooo many wires coming out the top. Or do you know if there is a cover that fits 3 to 4 wires?
Hi N D! currently nope, however (here is the best part) I'm working on a couple projects that may be or not be exactly what you are looking for (I can't say much yet since the products are still not released officially) stay tuned Bud!
@@AlexAutoFun oh shoot! can't wait!
@@AlexAutoFun any updates on that new product? Hard to find a rearview dashcam that has hidden input slots or just 1 wire coming out. I'm asking for a lot but looking for something that has a hidden input design with also has a direct mount. I found some that has hidden input design but it does not have direct mount. Or it has direct mount but doesn't have hidden input design. Am I wishful thinking? there has to be one like this.
@@taizzle70 Hi N D! ok now that I'm closer to releasing this video I can tell you a bit more, there are currently two options on the market with hidden wires and direct fit design, this one czcams.com/video/Yk2EEacXZ7g/video.html and the new one which I'm dropping the review for this friday, just keep in mind, it won't be cheap...
can you delete the auto vox logo from coming on ,,
Hi Gary! Nope, so far out of the dozens of dash cams I reviewed, none will let you remove the logo (which would be neat if you are trying to make it look like it was an OEM mirror (but I do find one in the future that does let you do that I will let you know. Hope this helps, Cheers1
@@AlexAutoFun my sd chip doesnt click in so i put it in half way and closed the door and seems to hold it in . thank you for your help !! i was going nuts with that compass drive mode u made delete easy thank you!
You're welcome Gary!
