S1 Pro

I installed this Vantru system in two of our cars, including the Gladiator. I really like it. I still need to mount the rear facing camera. I have a soft top and a hard top, so I can't just mount it on the hard top glass. I think I have figured out a way to mount the rear facing camera to the middle headrest post in the back seat. I'm gonna install it this weekend. Whatever you buy, make sure you also get a compatible hardwire kit (otherwise it won't record unless the truck is running), and a quality 256 gb memory card.

I have the **A229 Pro**. It is an excellent camera. I have the 2 camera version (front and rear). Another model that is also good is the **Vantrue S1 Pro Dual**. It is considerably cheaper, but the front camera is just as good. The rear camera is one step down in resolution - but it is probably good enough unless you want to read the license plates of cars going by. If you are in the US, they both happen to have big discounts today for the Cyber Monday sale on Amazon. I recommend you get a 2 camera setup. Getting rear-ended is the most common collision. Especially in winter. The negative in getting a rear camera is that you then have to run the wire from the front unit to the rear. It is very doable; you will just need to get a little plastic tool to pry up the interior panels so you can hide the wire. There a lots of YouTube videos showing how to do it. It will just be time consuming if this is your first time. (Important tip: Never run a wire *in front of an airbag* \- always behind.) Another thing to work out in advance is where the cam is going to get power. The options are different for different cars. See if there are videos that show how to do this on your specific model of car. The biggest decision here is choosing between a power source that cuts off when the engine is turned off, versus one that is on all the time.

I use a Vantrue model. The one I use has 2 cameras, one facing front and one facing back.

Vantrue S1 Pro Dual 1440P Dash Cam Front and Rear w Starvis 2 sensor. It’s been a great camera. Get the polarized lens cover, the Vantrue fuse power, Samsung industrial SD card and make sure to run the cables behind the airbags.

VanTrue S1 Pro Dual. Cables routed and completely hidden from the 12V outlet up to the front and rear cameras

Vantrue has these too, but I am very skeptical. You say they actually work?

Vantrue S1Pro or, what I have now, the N5. No drilling. TBH, I've never encountered a dashcam that required drilling for a rear cam.

I've had their S1Pro and now run the N5S. Best cams I've had, and very good company to deal with.

I have the Vantrue sonnet s1 pro. Connected to the cigarette lighter in the trunk
