Across the top of the B pillar and roof, along the rear passenger door rubber along the head liner. Down the C pillar, behind the rear seat, and tucked into into the trunk panel and out of the fuse box cover.

Nice, thanks!

You're welcome. The long cable they include in the box was the perfect length. I have about 1ft of slack tucked behind the fuse cover.

Today... I sold it.

Now there will be an empty spot in the garage for a few months. Hopefully it's replacement will be here in July

Got the new CF bucket seat bolster protectors from IND

P.S. this picture is a screenshot from their Instagram stories this morning. I saw it and placed the order. My interior is all black with CF buckets.

I have the OEM cameras, but I prefer my cameras record sound and run after the car is off too.

It stays on about 15-20 mins after I turn it off. Which is long enough for me. I dont want it sucking power off my battery 24/7. For times where I might leave my car somewhere overnight. I simply plug the USB cord into a power cell. Which wont happen often if at all. But its an option.

Looks very similar to the camera on my Garmin Catalyst. I wonder if there is a way to replace mine so I can gain the ability to use it as a dash cam AND feed video to the Catalyst. I'm guessing it has internal storage? The Catalyst stores videos on the Touchpad:

Thats cool! I googled it and it sure does look like my camera. Yes, it has a micro SD card port. Up to 512GB. I had a 256GB in there first version mini cam in my 911 and it stored at least a month or more of footage. It deletes the oldest video you have to make room for more. The only thing I dont like about it is the LEDs. I dont want them on. I dont want to see them. I want it as stealth and out of my view as possible. I tried to mount it directly next to the lower mirror plastic behind the mirror. But its 140 degree view would see the mirror cover plastic out of the corner of its view. I was forced to mount mine below the mirror plastic. Not thrilled about seeing a little portion of it sticking out. But it works good and is SMALL. I had the 4K blackvue DR900S or whatever kit before. But I dont want to see all that hardware in my window anymore. For that reason, this little camera rocks.

I was looking into those primarily because I do not want a very obtrusive dashcam. These are the perfect size. How is the app? Can you install a rear one and have the app access both remotely?

You can install 4 at once. The app works fine for me. For a stealth camera, this is the one to get.

Added sequential turn signals

Free mod - lowered the headrests. They now look 10 percent less goofy 🤪

Not quite 9 months like ChargerHellcat , but 8 months, and I picked it up today.
