Based on 1 year's data from Feb 25, 2026 How it works
I’ve been using a Nextbase 222 with a suction cup mount (purchased separately) for at least half a year no. No complaints.
I have a nextbase 222, front and rear camera. My husband wired mine to the fuse box,
I have the NextBase 222. Simple to use, super solid camera, great video quality and without Bluetooth (BT on cameras are a pain and never work right.) I have a USBC SD card reader that I can plug into my phone and it transfers it to my phone. All together I paid $80
Its one that i want to get for my car. I have two separate nextbase 222 cameras one for rear and one for front. There ok just i gotta format the sd card every once and a while. I heard its good and no issues, seen a few videos from gr corollar owners, and both sedan and hatch corolla all had no issues Tbh im either looking at the fitcamx because of the seamless plug n play with the radar meaning harder to disconnect when your car is in for service and wanna see how the techs are treating your car. or the redtiger 4k dashcam most of their models have a touch screen and can adjust camera angles once installed.
If you want the best appearance then get the wiring kit, if you aren’t bothered you might be ok with the 12v adapter and the wire hanging out the front of the console. Nextbase very easy to wire in just ensure you get the right wiring kit. The second generation needs the 2nd gen wire even though it is rated same I had issues reusing my gen1 kit trying to save money. Depending on your car, it’s as simple as finding a fuse in the passenger (easiest), or driver footwell, or in the engine compartment. I had not needed to try the latter as have done the wiring on Peugeots, Opels and Fords all of which had a passenger fuse board available. There are many Yt guides so you can probably find one for your car. It involves: -Finding a fuse which is live when the ignition is on only. Can do this with an electrical detector pen or a multimeter easily, or by consulting the exact wiring schematic for your car using the VIN which a car forum can help with if struggling. -Removing then Tapping the fuse by using the piggyback adapter supplied with the Nextbase kit. -threading the wire behind the glovebox (can usually access the dash from a side panel with passenger door wide). -threading up the passenger pillar (most cars pop off very easily but if you break the plastic clips you will need to get some more but they are super cheap online. -tucking the wire along the roof lining. I suggest to find the fuses first then mount the cam then start there and work down so you have a ball of spare wire at the footwell and cable tie it out of the way. I also wired my rear cam in which was quite easy but just needed a cable tie to thread through the bootlid harness was the tricky bit. Finally for the cam I always buy reconditioned Nextbase from their eBay shop. Save a fortune. You can also get the right memory card (very important to get the best you can). Hope this helps
Yes, I have a Nextbase 222 dash cam that includes the rear camera. It works really well, I recommend it.
We've had Nextbase front and rear for about 5 years now, no issues. Just remember to reformat the SD card occasionally.
Toyota branded Nextbase unit, installed by dealer. Quality is only average but the install is very neat (no visible wires at all) and the camera easily clips in and out. There's a Toyota Dashcam app to view it or you can take out the SD card or the whole camera and connect to pc.
