I've had Viofo cameras in the past couple cars. My current one is the T130 I've had for 6 months. No problems, works good! Samples;

Vortex Radar probably offers the most in depth analysis on current Dash cams and radar det..... he also posted a video in response to Linus video on dash cam quality last year.....

I went with the Viofo 139Pro with external battery pack so it can record in park mode for additional 48 hours without drawing from vehicle battery, was a very simple and easy installation.... you can usually find the Viofo dashcams discounted on Prime Days and Black Friday

I went with the GoPro and GoPro Labs firmware to make it turn on/record, and off automatically. That way it's good for off-roading, too.

I did the upper dash USB mod to easily connect it.

I'm a little late to the party here, but researching dash cams - and came across this picture showing something OTHER than a bulletpoint mounting system - what system is this??

Thank you so much! I am currently running bulletpoints, and I'll probably get hung out to dry for saying this, but I'm just not in love with them yet!!!
I wasn't into the bulletpoint mounting system, too. I like their connectors and adapters, though. My setup is the vector e-dock with bulletpoint arms and adapters.

I just bought their rubi grid system and need to install it - I think I'm just struggling to find the right size arms and placements to work with the '24 12.3 Inch screen.... I've got a pretty penny or two invested in their system, so I'm hoping I start liking it more, but I'm really intrigued by the vector system! Thank you for sharing!!!!

Rove2 best ever. Simple. Easy to get videos from phone. No need to find a computer. For me video quality and video access are most important. App active only when you go to it.

I have run the Garmin Mini on my last Jeep and now got it all hooked up on this one too. Got the box that monitors battery and it will record when parked (I think motion or movement detected). Also super small and where I have it on the windshield it's barely noticeable when driving. Makes a great trail cam to grab clips if the GoPro isn't running.

I installed a Viofo A229Pro in the Jeep last week and the first video came out pretty darn good (and I clearly had Lady Luck on my side).
