Rear Dash Cam Installation

[nsmith27]

Hi, has anyone installed a dash cam to the inside of the internal glass on a Emira and where (on top) ?
I am wondering on the picture quality going through two pieces of glass?
Any assistance with running the rear cable from the rear dash cam to the front mounted dash cam located by the rear view mirror to ensure the cable is hidden?
The dash cam I am looking at installing is the VIOFO A229 Pro 2ch.
Thanks

As far as I know if you want a very neat installation without any wire exposed, you can only do it under the diffusor. There is no place to hide the wire completely on the rear glass.

Also make sure your rear cam has a very high refresh rate (you can tell by checking if it uses a fiber optic wire) if you are using it for a digital rear view mirror. If it is only used for recording then it's fine.

Since you are using the VIOFO A229, another option is to get the interior camera and mount it next to the front camera. This way you get a view through the side windows and partial back. Not sure how useful it would be for reading license plates

That’s something I had not considered, as I didn’t realise the interior camera is like a fish eye lens. To have this option, I think you may need to purchase the A229 pro 3 ch version.

You can buy the camera separately on VIOFO website
