+1 for Viofo. Had one in my work vehicle for years.
r/dashcams • Costco doesn't carry a decent dash cam in the $100 price range? ->A119v2 and an A119v3. One for own car, one for work. Powered work one via a power pack and used a suction cup from ebay to mount it.
r/dashcams • Costco doesn't carry a decent dash cam in the $100 price range? ->Nearly every dashcam has a parking mode, BUT you have to hardwire it from my understanding. It can be overwhelming but make a checklist of what you want, also your first dashcam doesn't have to be your only and final if you are overwhelm nothing wrong with starting with a simple one. Personally I use a simple Viofo A119 V3, which IMO is the cheapest but best quality one you can get plus Viofo has good customer support which is best when dealing with dashcams, also you can buy that model refurbish by Viofo since they were and still are an extremely loved model. They do have a newer version of that model so if you do not mind spending extra it may be worth it. To get my to work I have an USB-C adapter for it and just plug it in to my USB-C outlet. However you need to hardwire it to get parking mode to work which you want. T130 I heard is OK, but it has mixed reviews, you can also get two A119 one front and rear or get a newer V2 one that comes with a mini rear cam up to you. Best of luck in your search! Also while I never used it, the fitcam X has made some names on here, it is even easier to install and has a parking mode I believe, BUT do not quote me on that, but it is a bit more pricey especially since the lowest price is 64gb sadly. Also rear is a seperate cam so may be a bit annoying but it is a lot easier than hardwiring it I feel like.
r/HRV • Can anyone recommend a good dash cam that’s not too expensive something that records the car even while it’s off and park and all around the car. There’s so many options out there having a hard time to choose ->If you don't want the one you put on your windshield, I have that type, I have a Viofo 119 V3 and I love it, but there's the Fitcamx which you just install where your sensor in. Link to Fitcamx: [https://fitcamx.com/](https://fitcamx.com/)
r/HRV • Dash Cam Recommendations for Honda HR-V EX-L ->I have the Viofo A119 V3, I like it, it is cheap, I will probably down the line get a better one or a pricey one if I get my own civic. I personally just used the USB-C plugs but you should hardwire if you want parking mode and stuff etc. Fitcam X has made some names so maybe that is worth a look, I recommend all Viofo though since they have some good customer support. Good luck!
r/HRV • Dash cam recommendations? ->More likely the sd card died. Try a different card. I would stick with the v3 if it works. If you are dead set on a new cam, then go with either the A119 mini or the A229 plus. Both have the Starvis 2 sensor which really helps with night time. [The A119 Mini 2 is cheaper](https://www.amazon.com/VIOFO-STARVIS-Control-Parking-Supercapacitor/dp/B0C5MVB7NX?crid=2Y2ELQBTX901F&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.5nyPp72DnMI_ODE51ynTBjocCh5dIwi3KchnQREBKgUJP-ZLqBgCZzPlt53DOLk-60MJ-4WUMLNu8Rtn8Ap3AQuDawNvEUmlQWvEx-tv5DWgde1IJwTokeceWbv9aHWF3oGkVbnGoBVdFAZXoFUl8_HACYVQO3M3zQt8nfpyENW5tO7IC-_1Ahyo-mfNrP7bvDCKgBaSK-5vFjoXRdw82hB_-cuuFYA5EXKwOosDW6o.ZGFZD2Z7S5EEYzUktjWbe8S03pRz_2zT7Pj6z41Bj2U&dib_tag=se&keywords=a119%2Bv3&qid=1716994238&sprefix=a119%2Bv%2Caps%2C263&sr=8-5&th=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=lfttscl-dbc-20&linkId=0cc083c017bca6aaecc9d50227b55d37&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl) and 4k resolution...which can marginally do better image quality. But it's only a front cam. It’ll be easier to install though. If you're looking for a dual cam then, [the A229 Plus is the way to go](https://www.amazon.com/VIOFO-A229-Plus-STARVIS-Ultra-Precise/dp/B0CKX14L34?&linkCode=ll1&tag=lfttscl-dbc-20&linkId=45361330c47c598c5b08977b88cca526&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl). Like I said, it has the same sensor so night time quality is the same. It's 1440p on the front and 1440p on the rear cam...still very respectable. So if you want a front and rear cam, I'd go with that.
r/dashcams • Cheap but good dash cam options? ->I’ve also had really good luck with the A119 and A129 in the Arizona heat for the last few years. Although most capacitor dashcams should be able to handle heat. Here are all the [operating temps for different cameras. ](https://www.reddit.com/r/dashcams/s/8bg7mGCAsL) Hope that’s helpful
r/dashcams • Is there a heat resistant dashcam? ->My A119 has six years on it in the hot Arizona sun. Only recently had a change the SD card. Camera still works perfect. I’d say go with either the A119 mini or the A229 plus. Both have the Starvis 2 sensor which really helps with night time.

r/dashcams • How long do dashcams actually last? ->I have several... \* Viofo A119 V3 - late 2019 \* Viofo A119 Mini 2 - Jan 2024 \* Viofo A229 Plus 3-ch - Aug 2024 \* Wolfbox G900 2-ch - Nov 2022 \* Wolfbox G900 Pro 2-ch - Feb 2025... replacing the Wolfbox G900 \* 70mai M500 - Mar 2023 \* 70mai Omni X200 - Apr 2023 \* 70mai A810 2-ch - Aug 2023 \* 70mai S500 2-ch - Sept 2023 \* DDPAI Mini Pro - sometime in 2023 There are others but these are the most relevant ones.
r/dashcams • 2024/2025 Dash Cam Recommendations? ->Although I personally have no need for such a dash cam (recently purchased the Viofo A229 Plus 3-CH), it's impressive to see Viofo keeping on the bleeding edge of dash cam technology. I've been using Viofo dash cams successfully for over 5-years starting with a couple of A119 V3's, then a couple of Mini 2's. So looking forwarded to seeing how the newly released A329 fairs out-of-the-gate.
r/Dashcam • VIOFO A329 TESTING AND REVIEW ->There are others, but my perffered brand is the wedge shaped Vofo's, such as the A119 V3, A119 Mini 2, A229 Plus, A229 Pro, etc. If used with their GPS mounts, the power cable is plugged into it, allowing easy removal without dealing with any cables whatsoever. These mounts can be purchased separately, allowing a single camera to become a multi-vehicle use camera. Add in an additional power source for the other dash cam(s), and you are set.
r/Dashcam • Any dashcams that can easily / quickly be moved between cars? ->\+1 I've had a few dash cams over the years but my VIOFO A119 V3 has been going strong for the past 4+ years with no issues in the heat. Also doesn't fall off my windshield like other dashcams did
r/Austin • Learn me on your Austin dashcams. What holds up here? ->Auto claim adjuster Viofo a119 v3 + 128 or 256GB high endurance SD card Sandisk or Samsung If you want the dual front and rear you can do but I know you guys have the sliding window Also make sure you check your auto policy and what coverages you have
r/4Runner • Who’s got a dash cam and what you using? ->Auto adjuster V3 a119 Viofo Front mainly I have a 2nd front view that I’m going to put in the back just need to make sure wire is long enough
r/ToyotaHighlander • Dash Cam recommendations? ->Basic one Viofo v3 A119 Just had my accident and it saved my but
r/ToyotaHighlander • Just joined the club! Dash cam recs? ->Get a viofo a119 v3 and call it a day I would pay for a factory one
r/ToyotaHighlander • Install factory dash cam AFTER purchase? ->Meant wouldn’t Viofo is $80 on Amazon it’s cheaper and reliable and get a 118-256 High endurance SD card and call it a day They have YouTube install videos super Simple :)
r/ToyotaHighlander • Install factory dash cam AFTER purchase? ->I've been using the viofo a119 v3 for about a year, I think I'm gonna upgrade to something that includes a rear cam. I feel kinda vulnerable not having it.
r/Camry • What brand Dashcam should I buy ->I mean they're cheap, popular, and their naming conventions can be confusing, so I can see this post helping some people figure out what is what. I personally grabbed the 119 v3 but had no idea about improved night vision in other models. I might have considered that version instead.
r/dashcams • Updated list of dashcams from Viofo A119 vs A129 Vs Mini2 vs A229 Pro and more ->When I was recently researching dashcams, I noticed that there were a lot from Viofo to choose from. I made this list to help me narrow down what I needed. Hope this is helpful.

Has been around for multiple year and has a great track record. 1440p resolution with GPS and parking mode.

r/dashcams • Updated list of dashcams from Viofo A119 vs A129 Vs Mini2 vs A229 Pro and more ->My daughter just got a Viofo A119 V3 is happy with it, $89 for the cam, $20 for the 128G SD card. Easy install and setup, pretty solid picture quality. Check out this video before you buy one, they basically all use the same chip no matter how much they charge which is why we went with the cheaper one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4AnyhHl3_tE&pp=ygUXbGludXMgdGVjaCB0aXBzIGRhc2hjYW0%3D
r/VEDC • Might be the wrong sub. Dash cam recommendations? ->I have the A229 Plus and love both day and night pictures. Also, being able to connect my phone via WiFi is a great advantage. I also have the A119 v3 and although it has a great picture, you can’t connect your phone to it. I’m sure the A229 Pro is a great option as well.
r/dashcams • New car dash cam recommendations. ->Viofo A119 V3, had it for over three years, no issues. I run the older V2 in the back. I stay away from those dual ones as they either overheat and die prematurely or the recording can be a hit or a miss.

The 1080p quality is horrible, especially if you're looking to grab a license plate in an emergency. There are plenty of better high-resolution dash cams out there. I second Viofo A119's. I've had my V3 for a few years now with zero issues. It's 2K, but there are plenty of details. I run a separate dash cam for the rear as well.
r/ToyotaHighlander • Install factory dash cam AFTER purchase? ->View some of the actual footage of the Toyota OEM dash cam. The 1080p quality is horrible, especially if you're looking to grab a license plate in an emergency. There are plenty of better high-resolution dash cams out there. I second Viofo A119's. I've had my V3 for a few years now with zero issues. It's 2K, but there are plenty of details. I run a separate dash cam for the rear as well.
r/ToyotaHighlander • Install factory dash cam AFTER purchase? ->Dash cam - ridiculously easy to install and VERY useful if you need to fight insurance. My pick was the Viofo A119 V3 and it sits very nicely behind the mirror. Takes up some noticeable real estate on your windscreen, but it has a parking mode, g-force sensor, speed sensor w/gps, and saves right to an SD card. Car covers are only really useful for museum-level protection. If you're gonna drive the car, park it in a garage or get a nice metal overhang for it. Though, if all you can do is street-park it, any covering is more of a hassle than it's worth.
r/Miata • Miata's getting fully repainted, which to invest in first, a dash cam or car cover? ->Viofo A119 v3 is one of the best bangs for your buck out there
r/rav4club • Best Dash Cam? ->I've had a Viofo A119 V3 for years in my ND. Right behind the mirror, wire pushed into the plastic trim and routed to the door, and plugged into the hidden cigarette lighter power port below the passenger console.
r/Miata • Got an ND and a dash cam? Recommendations? ->Have been using the viofo a119v3 (hardwired for parking mode as well) since 2019 and have had zero issues since then with 100k miles on the original SD card
r/Camry • What brand Dashcam should I buy ->The VIOFO A119 V3 2K on Amazon has worked well for me... As long as the stupid USB doesn't come out of the jack.
r/hondafit • Has anyone had luck finding a good dashcam for the Fit? ->If you just want a good front dashcam, the Viofo A119 v3 will fit the bill. I put the A329 in because I wanted the better image quality and rear camera. Was worth the extra shekels. Buy once, cry once, if you can budget a bit more. Whatever you get, make sure you get a high or max endurance microSD card.
r/Crosstrek • Best crosstrek dash cam? ->I use front only in both my cars. Viofo a119v3 using the dongar specific adapter to power it from the power mirror. Mache install was super simple. Plastic around the mirror pops off and you unplug mirror and replace with the dongar adapter cable and reinstall and done
r/MachE • Dash cam recommendations? ->Best spot is just below the rear view mirror on the glass using 3m double sided tape. Viofo a119v3 that I have came with all needed to mount like this Buy a dongar power mirror adapter to get power from a powered rear view mirror if you have a cx-5 with one
r/CX5 • Best place to put a dash cam? ->Viofo a119 v3 or Viofo a229 You'll have to buy the hardwire kit separately though . They're really good cams
r/F250 • F250 Dash-cam Suggestions ->Viofo A119 V3 been using it for 1 year [this](https://www.amazon.com/VIOFO-2560x1440P-140-Degree-Included-Detection/dp/B07SRQH4R7)
r/askcarguys • Best Dashcam Value? ->Viofo A119 V3. Lasts about 3 years or so. Cheap investment!
r/wrx_vb • What Dash Cam do you have? ->Ando com a Viofo A119 V3 e a 70MAI M500 debaixo do olho. Também andei a pensar numa mais barata mas queria algo com melhores ângulos e clareza. Às vezes poupa-se 30 ou 40€ e sai caro. Edit: Quanto à Viofo e 70MAI, a Viofo tem uma qualidade melhor, as matrículas são muito claras, no entanto a M500 tem um ângulo maior e pode ser mais útil em problemas laterais.
r/AutoTuga • Dash cam ->viofo a119 v3 is a fantastic camera for the price. i think i got mine for like $80.
r/GR86 • Dash cam recommendations ->I've ran several viofos with no problems. Currently run a A119 V3. No problem easy install. Been running them for years. Usually if something is wrong, its the sd card.
r/ram_trucks • Any opinions on a good dash cam? ->I've ran several viofos with no problems. Currently run a A119 V3. No problem easy install. Been running them for years. Usually if something is wrong, its the sd card.
r/ram_trucks • Any opinions on a good dash cam? ->Viofo A119 v3 powered by the Dongar rearview mirror adaptor. Also have a dash cam on the rear simply plugged into the 12v outlet at the rear of the center console. https://preview.redd.it/f9suhlmwdrpd1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a1cb515e1fdafa8149fc5c87155742af28746124
r/F150Lightning • Dash Cam ->Been using Viofo A119V3 for years - great value and very reliable. Highly recommended by many.
r/Lexus • Recommend front dash cam ->I second the suggestion re: Viofo. They have newer, more expensive models, but if working to a budget, the older A119 V3 has proven to be extremely reliable, hence why it remains available for purchase.
r/Lexus • Aftermarket Dash Cam ->viofo a119 v3 or the mini. tapping into the cabin fuse box is your best bet.
r/Lexus • Recommend front dash cam ->Second this. Has been perfect to me
r/GR86 • 2025 GR86 dash cam recommendation ->This is the way. Had mine for about 2 years, not a single issue.
r/4Runner • Who’s got a dash cam and what you using? ->I use Viofo 119 mini for the front camera and the 119 v3 for the rear camera. The whole setting costs less that $200 total when on sale. I prefer the smaller one up front so that it occupies less of my windshield. I bough a long usb C cable and run it from the middle console, under the floor mats, to the rear window. It sucks that the new Highlander doesn't have a 12v or an usb port in the trunk area.
r/ToyotaHighlander • New Highlander, dash cam? ->In descending order of quality: 1. Viofo a119 v3, a119 mini or a129 plus duo. A229 and above are overkill. 2. Sjcam m60 3. Ddpai mini 2x or z40 (if you need duals) If you need 3 channels, wolfbox x5 is the best in its price range. But I dont recommend it if you frequent rough roads
r/CarsPH • what are your recommended dash cams??????????????? ->You need one WITHOUT an internal battery. Batteries in direct heat under glass, can get to140+ ... they don't make it. You want capacitor power. Best you can do, is run power directly from a fusetap or USB, into dashcam that is without an internal battery. https://a.co/d/9tJcm0L This is what I've been using since 2021. It's not even 100bucks. Decent pixeldensity, and I can see license plates clearly day or night. Considering it's older, I'm sure there is newer stuff out there. But that's been tried and true for me. Survives summers in a black interior/exterior car. Haha
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->Really depends on the features you need from it, but the best value for most people is The [Viofo A119 ](https://amzn.to/3EYTxTh) Plenty of standard features, very reliable, and great quality. I have actually made several dash cam video compilations with video off of my personal one. No complaints about it at all.
r/askcarguys • Best Dashcam Value? ->The quality is 2560x1440, meaning you can still zoom in a fair amount and still have 1080p quality. Overall quality of picture will be determined by lighting, as with any camera, but I have not had any issues with it. Ease of use is great. Its got plenty of straight forward options that you just set up and forget. I have mine setup to turn on when my car turns on, and off when the car is off. There are parking mode settings and battery saver settings, but I just don't personally use them) I just forget its there until I press the button to save the clip. "Ability to easily wipe past data with nothing important to show" : The camera has two recording sections. One is the section thats always recording everything, and it will fill up, and then start replacing the oldest clips with the newest. The other section is clips you have saved. If you press the save button, that clip is put into a separate folder and not at risk to be deleted. If you press the button close to where two clips overlap, it actually saves both, which has been awesome. "Quality of app associated with it when applicable" Honestly I have no idea if there is an app. I just pop the SD card out, put it in my computer, and move the saved files over to my computer. Then I delete them off the SD card and pop it back into the dash cam. Easy as that.
r/askcarguys • Best Dashcam Value? ->Same one I have. Definitely recommend. If you want to keep wires out of view, you can tuck the USB cable underneath your trim, through the glove box, and into the centre console.
r/TorontoDriving • Get a dash cam. There is absolutely no reason to not have a dashcam in your car. ->If you go looking for bad reviews, you’re going to find them. No camera is going to have a 0% failure rate. These reviews you are literally looking for are such a small percentage. I have had my Viofo for probably 4 years now? 2 different vehicles and I bought one for my dad. Not once have I ever had a failure. I’m not sure what you’re hoping to get out of posting this?
r/Dashcam • Why does literally every dash cam have negative reviews which state the camera fails after several weeks or months? ->I mean, even on the link you posted above. 4 and 5 star reviews make up 85% of the responses. 1-3 stars is only 14%, and you gotta figure that not even all of them are actual, true customer reviews. So the actual number is likely less than 6% that truly had an awful experience. I have that exact same camera you linked above. Had it for many years, and two cars, it’s been great.
r/Dashcam • Why does literally every dash cam have negative reviews which state the camera fails after several weeks or months? ->The A119 V3 is one of the most durable dashcams in the world. All those shitty reviews with dashcam failing after a short period are user mistakes. All. A L L.
r/Dashcam • Why does literally every dash cam have negative reviews which state the camera fails after several weeks or months? ->I watched this and got the linked cam after my car got totaled in a hit in run on Saginaw six months ago. I spent like $40 bucks on it and aside from one corrupted memory card (I used the wrong kind) its been perfectly adequate.
r/lansing • Best affordable dash cam for having my face shot off? ->The other cameras are what uninformed people actually buy on Amazon, and his test usefully showed how poor some of them are. So yes, they are true competitors, but not competitive, except in their fake Amazon reviews and fake claims of 4K resolution! Half of them claimed to be "4K", but the 2K Viofo, released last decade, "ran circles around them all"! Maybe for the follow up, he will include a couple more of the better brands, but his style isn't to do a test with only the best, where the differences are tiny; he always includes a wide range from junk to excellent, where his testing shows clear differences, and that is why he has so many subscribers! Note that Viofo is also made in China, but it doesn't go in the junk category, they actually design and build them from scratch in their own factory with better facilities than most western manufacturers. And they don't make false claims of "4K" in their Amazon listings until Amazon delists the brand and they have to invent yet another new brand name to start up with again! In the long run, cheating doesn't work, hard work and great customer support does, and it is good to see Viofo winning this test, and all the positive comments about Viofo product and support in the video comments.
r/Dashcam • Project Farm - Dash Cams comparison (great channel) ->None of these cameras had a Sony Starvis 2 sensor, yet if you pay a little extra, you can step up to the newer version of the Viofo A119, the A119 Mini2 which does, and which would beat the Viofo A119 V3 that won this test in the same way that the V3 beat most of the competition! Having stepped up to current generation Sony Starvis 2, you can then step up to the 4K version, which is another significant step, and then you get a bit stuck on image quality and going for a far more expensive Blackvue or Thinkware is currently a step down in image quality relative to the 4K Viofo A229 Pro, only reason you would take that step is to get cloud access to your parked car, but that is an expensive choice, both in cash and in license plate readability. Best image quality currently is the Viofo A329 series, which not only has Sony Starvis 2 sensors, but has also moved to the next generation of processors, which is bringing quite a few advantages.
r/Dashcam • Project Farm - Dash Cams comparison (great channel) ->This is a common question here so I wanted to make a post on budget dashcams. Here are the ones that will cover you 99% times. Obviously if you want fancy features, you may need to spend more. **[Viofo A119 V3](https://www.amazon.com/VIOFO-2560x1440P-140-Degree-Included-Detection/dp/B07SRQH4R7?crid=1KDBT212A2VIS&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.5nyPp72DnMI_ODE51ynTBjocCh5dIwi3KchnQREBKgXTSsIASGHS6Lg6e8oTLd6WUbOqd6FbGEbQCd6Qulvm7DK8P8vW8MZJCg99qGIFX-C_3JuLs1_OfFrTj3-9zZjsvx0U9tl_6DlJ8q28XFCRkVmL-wn7HhNettXh6Y3a3F8YbGeftEnZKymFuOEZ5tQxqYnhcSRuSJaheelM3cd-_QI1On5HSz8wUC4GYqgQJlw.67T_k-C_UnaNS1uB_JhAJGaSCF7WMNhXX5cr8aVXBVY&dib_tag=se&keywords=Viofo+A119+V3&qid=1718038086&sprefix=viofo+a119+v3%2Caps%2C460&sr=8-3&linkCode=ll1&tag=981--20&linkId=20b68f2e9de4261e768209c8bef377fc&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl)** - Best bang from the buck out of just about any dashcam.

In my opinion, this is the best front only cam to get nowadays. **[Rove 2k-4k](https://www.amazon.com/R2-4K-Dashboard-Camera-Recorder-Vision/dp/B074JT3698?crid=3R2TZXQP40UO8&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.6KFEt9ZLBGEYhPkl7OJyBptqYdPo1N81uTxAZR9DPdxO185njSrvFKbDarrEXJuCN6DupZ77njs17ET_8NtIt0_gaobHuLfy58MAcZdfWglSgVYL41CIO-wHqg8AdnIWurV1C0el3iTU5-IYrQS6_m_nHtuAb5S2pe-jjwR4zZ8b4yubgdzpQgjmpM0yKiDx-xKEnizN6Dijv_1kHOc9jvs_FHH2t-xCV-5u-mOAIkR_xlfLy4smdzToyV5tYy-JRfNQAZ2oCNjahJOtMeedYe7zahqCBksn5-3Z3XwODo0ZV-ZhJGQsXxL6TMcqlvPQMuLom5ZNORdlmk8V1A0bfaeA-hdtxXGNFcgB-AK0YAEU5xRcsnNZCebwHij6MHMSzk-ohytg6p3sFPP4V46GIEUdu797Y0pboG8wfTijsBxjKqqE085qmyHzg1Bq5n6m.hDfkgVVaiKb7VzuocuHrATGyG6QieRzi53vpTeX6tyo&dib_tag=se&keywords=ROVE+R2-4K+Dash&qid=1738044611&sprefix=rove+r2-4k+dash%2Caps%2C181&sr=8-7&linkCode=ll1&tag=0-45-20&linkId=80140bed27ccd11bc441f91e2eae43f4&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tl)** - One of the cheapest budget cams.

r/dashcams • Budget Dashcams that keep coming up on Reddit ->+1 for viofo, have had the 119 V3 in my Na for about 5 years now and it works great. Lowlight performance is solid as well, never had an issue with it
r/Miata • Got an ND and a dash cam? Recommendations? ->I've recently fitted 2x viofo a119v3 and they're been fine. Cheaper than a front/rear cam and better quality.
r/CarTalkUK • Dashcams are a minefield! ->£20 voucher took them down to £90 so OK not cheaper, but not far off. Not stringing a cable front to back and the better quality is worth the extra £10 imo.
r/CarTalkUK • Dashcams are a minefield! ->The VIOFO A119 v3 has done great in the TX heat for me. I upgraded to the VIOFO A129 Pro Duo camera, but it hasn’t held up as well in the heat and sometimes will need to cool down before it starts recording. The A119 v3 has never had that problem before, but it’s 2K single channel vs 4K dual channel. Still a great camera though!
r/Dashcam • Dashcam recommendations for Texas heat? ->VIOFO A119 v3. Get a good microsd card and the wire kit and your done.
r/dashcams • Looking for The Best Dash Cam – Recommendations? ->Viofo A119v3 is the best single dashcam (not front & rear) you can get under $200. It's well worth the money.
r/VEDC • Might be the wrong sub. Dash cam recommendations? ->Eyesight isn’t a digital photography camera/video recorder. It uses different technology to read traffic around you, and has specific algorithms (speed = distance/time is the most basic one, for collision avoidance). It would be really cool if they did use it as a dashcam. However, [this](https://a.co/d/6nQJfmB) dashcam is pretty discreet and won’t be in your way too much. The thing with our cabins is that there is little trim to hide cables. They actually did do a good job with moving the 12V to the glove box, so you can hide wires cleaner! Dashcams are something I buy before I even took delivery of my car. Insurance scams are no joke and you can lose a lot of money really fast if you’re not careful.
r/GR86 • How important is a dashcam? ->VIOFO A119 V3 is by far my favourite. There’s no glare on license plates at night like most dash cams have so it’s nice and clear. Hardwire kit is $20 from them.
r/Crosstrek • Best crosstrek dash cam? ->Got a viofo a119 v3, been using it for 4 years now. Only issue I ran into is having to replace the memory card.
r/TorontoDriving • Get a dash cam. There is absolutely no reason to not have a dashcam in your car. ->Viofo are recommended, I've had one for over two years and have had no problems with the A119 V3
r/Costco • Anyone have the Atomi dash cam or done any research on it? ->100% can recommend viofo. I was rocking a viofo 119 V3 when I got in my wreck
r/dashcams • affordable dash cam recommendations? ->I have a Viofo A119 V3, attached to the left of the rearview mirror. I ran the cable around the windshield on the passenger side, down the A-pillar, and plugged into the USB port. It turns on and off with the truck. I've had it for almost a year now, and I've been happy with it.
r/f150 • What dashcam are you all using? ->this is what i went with, Viofo A119 V3 Dash Cam. no problems to report. i even witnessed a hit and run and gave the video to the car that got hit and they were able to track them down.
r/wrx_vb • Recommendations for a dash camera ->routing the camera is really easy as well. took me ten mins tops
r/wrx_vb • Recommendations for a dash camera ->exactly that, just pop the piece off and just route it right underneath the airbag. super easy job.
r/wrx_vb • Recommendations for a dash camera ->Check out r/dashcams sticky post for recommendations. I went with an A119 v3 and a power adaptor off the rear-view mirror for my 2017 Outback Ltd. Install was easy-peasy, no problems with the Eyesight, and great videos. https://preview.redd.it/zar970jt3xyd1.png?width=816&format=png&auto=webp&s=8c6c7fb984d4b3f3091da85a6ca70faa280ba706
r/Subaru_Outback • Dash Camera Recommendations ->Best bang for buck - Viofo. I've got their A119 mini v2 ($87), A129 Plus Duo ($130 in 2020), and A119 v3 ($80, 2018/19? ish) in use, and will be picking up an A229 Plus Duo whenever they go on sale again (no tax if buying through their site, btw) Garmin, Blackvue, Thinkware also have very good track records, for both reliability and honesty. 70mai is generally well-regarded and trustworthy as well, but they have a penchant for using batteries in their cams, which (in earlier days of cams, at least) were prone to swelling in heat. You'll want a cam with a (super)capacitor instead of a battery to mitigate this The reason I mention honesty and trustworthiness - almost all other brands I've looked at lie in their marketing and say their cameras are capable of a resolution they aren't. E.g. Rove - their original 4k dashcam isn't true 4k, it's upscaled You'll be better served at /r/Dashcam (or /r/dashcams, I can never remember which is which) and dashcamtalk.com. You will also need to factor in the cost of a microSD card (high endurance highly recommended) and, if you don't want cables hanging around leading to your 12v cig lighter, the cost of a hardwire kit. A good 128GB card is ~$12-23, hardwire kit ~$15-25 https://dashcamtalk.com/best-dash-cams-of-2024/
r/Austin • Dashcam advice? ->I put in 2x Viofo A119 V3. They were on sale and at the time were about the same price as a two camera model. On the front, I put it to the passenger side of the of the rearview mirror. If you have an auto-dimming mirror, which I would think maybe the badlands has, you can get a little adapter that lets you plug into that for power. My 2021 Big Bend does not have that, so I routed the cable over the windshield, down the A pillar, around the side of the dash, under the glovebox, and into the center console where it plugs into the USB A port. I have to use a couple of the included cable clips under the glovebox area on the bottom, but you literally cannot see the cable at all. The seams in the trim allow it to be completely hidden and then pop out right next to the USB. On the back, I stuck the camera to the plastic trim on the roof, rather than the tailgate itself, that was the cable does not have to move and it does not effect the tailgate, or rear glass opening. The cable tucks into the weather stripping that seals the tailgate. The cable than plugs into the 12v power port, with an included USB adapter. (this outlet has a 30-min delay turnoff on 2021, not sure about others) This is not as clean as the front, and you will still see a the cable dangling by the cigarette lighter. I just need to find a way to coil it and use some sticky clips to secure it better. Its just the cargo area so it does not bother me much. With a 2 Ch cam, I imagine you would be able to route the cable around the edge of the headliner and never notice it. These have screens, but can be set to turn off after like 5 seconds. They make a very quiet chime noise when they turn on to let you know they are recording. I'm pretty sure you can turn that off too. The included mounting tape was not sticky enough to use on my very smooth plastic surfaces, so I have to get the stronger tape from the hardware store. The windshield mount worked fine. With my setup the cams do not use "parking mode" since power is off, but I live on a busy street so they would be activated too often anyway. I'll try to get some pics when it's not 14 degrees outside.
r/BroncoSport • Anyone have a dashcam setup they like for their Bronco Sport? ->[this is the one you’ll eventually settle on after researching for hours](https://www.amazon.com/VIOFO-2560x1440P-140-Degree-Included-Detection/dp/B07SRQH4R7/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?crid=1K6GF41Z2NFKF&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.q-6lUeacHNj2GfGYz2edTUuupP2R6YhCXdjS9iSVCckKNuU_721aZA50X5-OHWR0nmzui6UUKvgqJs6TSEVJ_eG2u0wVgEkGVQdpkB3ivgdzAjfFDzbS-LAW0t_UnDSxp3Ife97JWK4P1nzCIZpbDMYV_KtCd5C0SrjU1-v-o_fFLiYSuZcUyW6iPW0Uut4oByR1y3bjWa40OTshSO9hTw.WjCBr6lBnU-Dayun6PFToWLrbk4T7iD7L2h-Zjilji4&dib_tag=se&keywords=viofo+dash+cam&qid=1738373077&sprefix=viofo%2Caps%2C133&sr=8-8)
r/crv • Dashcam recommendations ->I just have it USB powered under the infotainment. I wfh so there's no reason for parking mode.
r/wrx_vb • What Dash Cam do you have? ->+1 on the a129pro (front and back). Can also do viofo a119 v3 but it's front only.
r/GR86 • Dash cam recommendations ->I use a Viofo A119 V3 dash cam. Overall, it does what it needs to, but GoPro is just a better camera all around. I have a Hero 9 Black for reference, and is what I'm comparing it to. Examples https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5YwfUmPF5iw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQh5oP0hsso For dual purpose, its fine. Just make sure you angle the camera properly, like in video 1, and not like in video 2.
r/CarTrackDays • Anyone use a dash cam for track days? ->This one by [Viofo](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SRQH4R7?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share)
r/MazdaCX30 • Dashcam ->Viofo A119 V3 is the best for your money. I'd hardwire it too
r/Volvo • Dash cam that doesn't break the bank ->Just few days ago i put viofo A119 v3 with hardwire kit for parking mode. Can recommend!
r/Volvo • Dash cam that doesn't break the bank ->I love it too but mines starting to crap out where like ten mins after turning on car it says “recording started”. Not sure if it started then or quick reset or what. Every so often it’ll just get stuck in a loop saying that or the chimes when it first turns on until I power it on/off again.
r/4Runner • Who’s got a dash cam and what you using? ->Viofo A119 v3. It's like $100 plus the SD card. Great quality. Easy install. Had it since Jan and love it.
r/4Runner • Who’s got a dash cam and what you using? ->Viofo A119 is very good and uses a high quality Sony sensor. They come on sale all the time through Amazon. https://www.viofo.com/products/a119-v3-with-gps-2k-25601600p-30fps-quad-hd-car-dash-cam When buying a memory card look for a “high endurance” card. They are designed to be written to many times so you’ll get much more life out of them. Sandisk and Samsung make them - stick to those brands (and only their high endurance ones). They too come on sale often.
r/Edmonton • It's dash cam season - looking for recommendations ->I've had a Viofo A119v3 for years now
r/ElantraN • Dashcam recommendations ->I've been running the A119 V3 for 18 months now. Solid choice at good price. I think I got almost all of the cable behind the A pillar trim, with the exception of maybe three inches at the bottom.
r/BoltEV • Dash cam ->Bought the one you mentioned in OP for a '25 CRV. If your car has the auto dim mirror, it's insanely simple to install, however it won't work while parked. They also have hardwire kits but it's a more detailed installation.
r/crv • Anyone recently buy & install a dashcam in a 2024/25 CRV? ->We have Viofo A119 V3 dashcams in our cars, mounted behind the rearview mirror. The only issue we encountered was with the hardwiring kit from Viofo. However, after purchasing an OBD connection wire, both systems now work perfectly. We love our dashcams!
r/FordMaverickTruck • Dashcams? ->I have the A119 v3. Am I supposed to get an SD card adapter to view files on my computer? I can see videos on the actual dash cam but using the USB cable it came with, my computer doesn’t register the camera as a connected device.
r/dashcams • dashcam came in clutch ->Yep that’s how it works. Some cameras have wifi that you can use to get the videos out but A119 v3 doesn’t, so SD card adapter is the way to go. The usb port is only for providing power to the camera.
r/dashcams • dashcam came in clutch ->Would be cool if it used those cameras and then have telemetry all integrated, but alas it just a separate basic wedge shaped camera from Fujitsu Ten for a ridiculous amount of money, $714 in Canada. As others mentioned, you can get a decent 2 camera system from Viofo or others for a less and get the better quality video. I bought a single cam A119 v3 for a little over a $100 CDN on Amazon and it’s been great.
r/rav4club • Dash cam. ->I am adding to my rock solid experience with a 119. No issues. There has only been a few times i needed to check it, and i do not even use the app. Did not even know there was one. I just pop out the card and read it on my PC. BTW, since getting it i also learned no matter what the f-ing idiot does in front of you - like slamming on their brakes on the Golden Gate bridge at 50 MPH, "You were following too closely". Just a PSA as i learned the hard way dash cam footage is not a protection if you hit them.
r/dashcams • Updated list of dashcams from Viofo A119 vs A129 Vs Mini2 vs A229 Pro and more ->I have had like 5 dash cams so far, and used every one for years. I've had Viofo 119 v3 for 3 years now and it's the only cam that has been rock solid for me. The app - yes it's crap. But how often do I use it? I prefer Netflix to watching my road footage every evening. Pros: capacitor - 3 years and still running strong (temp anything between -20 to plus 35C), card format reminder every month - never had corrupted footage, 60 fps - people seem to only pay attention to resolution while it is fps that will allow you to capture blur-free footage while moving, easy to remove from the dock (this is why I never use the app - I can get to the sd card easily). Ask yourself how important is the app for you? For me, after the initial week of trying to download the files for examination of the quality, I just have almost no need to use it anymore and the hardware is just running flawlessly. I have no affiliation with Viofo. This is my actual experience
r/dashcams • Updated list of dashcams from Viofo A119 vs A129 Vs Mini2 vs A229 Pro and more ->And here I am, rockin' my Viofo a119 v3 that I got for $89 haha
r/Dashcam • Worth the extra money for the sensor? ->It wasn't an advertisement, I was simply stating what I paid for it. Sorry for not doing the conversion, I figured you could handle it lol
r/Dashcam • Worth the extra money for the sensor? ->I will forever simp for Viofo A119. I've had their cameras on all my cars over the last 7-8 or so years. Only issues I've had: - Mic failed in 2023, most likely due to 300W subwoofer played entirely too loudly in a small hatchback. - Ratchet mechanism for adjusting camera aim got loose, but was fixed with a couple dabs of super glue. Both of these issues occurred on a V1 purchases in 2017 and neither were worth replacing the camera in my opinion. I have V3's in my other vehicles that have been rock solid. The selling point for them, imo, is that they're simple while still being more or less feature complete, record quality video, and are very affordable. Official support is limited to an adhesive mount, but I'm seeing aftermarket suction mounts on Amazon
r/ToyotaTacoma • Recommended Dash Cam for 2017 Tacoma? ->[Almost EVERYONE is Wasting Money on Dash Cams || LTT](https://youtu.be/4AnyhHl3_tE?si=kgizzScyHzoRphHN) they go through and test them all and determine it’s the VIOFO A119 v3
r/ToyotaHighlander • Just joined the club! Dash cam recs? ->It turns out everything on the market uses the same camera sensor and processor
r/ToyotaHighlander • Just joined the club! Dash cam recs? ->I have this one. Took 10 seconds to setup (just need a USB port to plug into for power) and works well. [https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07SRQH4R7?ref=nb\_sb\_ss\_w\_as-reorder\_k1\_1\_3&=&crid=IYV7H8R99PRF&=&sprefix=vio](https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07SRQH4R7?ref=nb_sb_ss_w_as-reorder_k1_1_3&=&crid=IYV7H8R99PRF&=&sprefix=vio)
r/TorontoDriving • Get a dash cam. There is absolutely no reason to not have a dashcam in your car. ->Yep works great.
r/TorontoDriving • Get a dash cam. There is absolutely no reason to not have a dashcam in your car. ->How much are you wanting to spend? I just got a GX460 and went with a Viofo A119v3. The reason I picked it is that I felt it was the best performance per dollar. I got it just around boxing week so I paid less than $90. I also got a FitDVR to make the install easy and clean. The FitDVR takes power from your rearview and gives you a usb port and a 12v barrel jack. Planning on getting a radar detector now just to make use of the 12v jack.
r/Lexus • Aftermarket Dash Cam ->Totally unnecessary. These are the old players in the dash cam game. Companies like Viofo offer better cameras for much less money. A basic viofo 119 v3 is only 110 dollars and does a reasonably good job.
r/britishcolumbia • Use dash cams folks ->The A810 Plus definitely has a supercap, and looks to be solid as anything. I do use the A329 in two channel mode but it has intermittent issues with my Kingston external SSD, Viofo has had to backtrack on its claims of compatibility with SSD enclosures - it's been a mess. A119 V3 I've still got one in the drawer that was my daily for a couple of years, it can't be beaten in the Australian heat here and for it's video quality. Vantrue has caught up a lot in terms of their app and image quality, I would go for E1 Pro which seems to be the pick for a cheap 4k single unit solution. The e360 is a bit out of an outlier as they're trying something new - they have had their doozies like the s1 pro which was quickly replaced by the N2X which was way way better. To be honest, it's a three way battle between Viofo 70mai and Vantrue now. Totally understand the convenience of the Wolfbox and the form factor , it definitely has it's use cases and I can't fault that in the slightest. Wolfbox seem to be getting their game together now which is good. I agree with you on the x800, it seems like that's what the issue is. Shame really but what can you do. To be honest the a810 plus seems to be the safer buy even if the cabin is a crappy 1080p only. YouTube reviewers don't mention these issues not a single one mentioned it for the x800 even though they would have the Dec and January batch units that had the issues.
r/Dashcam • Wolfbox G900 Pro vs...? ->+1 for this dashcam, have it hardwired and its been great
r/WRX • Dashcams? ->I bought the Viofo A129 plus, directly from viofo.com when it was on sale. I used to have a Viofo A119 on my 2017 Tucson, hardwired, but i didn't really use the parking function. The night time recording is what makes the difference between dadhcams and I would suggest you get one with a Sony StarVis **2** sensor. Regarding wiring, I did not bother with hardwire in my 2025 Tucson for two reasons. One, the fuse box is reeealy tiny and tight and the fuse taps would stick out. And two, since the car gives me **4** USB-C charging ports, I just used a right angle adapter to connect the camera's OEM USB cable to one of the ports in the front. It's really unnoticeable. Two things I would steer clear from, is suction cup mounts and cameras with white or IR LEDs... all they do is light up the windshield at night and render the footage basically useless.
r/HyundaiTucson • Any dash cam recommendations for 2025 Tuscon? ->I have a VIOFO A119 and it has been great. I recently bought a new truck and will likely put in the newer [VIOFO A229 Plus dual cameras](https://amzn.to/3Z9Ijmj). There is also an A229 Pro which is 4K. Also, checkout the reviews on [/r/dashcam](https://www.reddit.com/r/Dashcam).
r/f150 • Dash Camera ->They should be able to do it. It's easy if you go slow and tuck the cable out of the way. I run the cable where the roof meets the top of the windshield, then down the passenger A pillar { the side of the windshield }, then straight down, to get to the underside of the glove box { make sure the glove box can open and close without the cable being affected, and that it isn't in the path of the vent down there }. I use Gorilla tape and never had a problem in 10ish years. Format the SD card in the dashcam every couple of months, to stop bugs from popping up. { No dashcam is "very" reliable, but there are good ones out there. } I use Viofo A119C. I replace it every 2-3 years because of all of the heat in the summer, and all of the cold in the winter.
r/rav4club • Best buy install dash cam? ->I've been using the Viofo dashcams for over 10 years. They're as reliable as any other brand, affordable, and I have no reason to switch to another company. I put tens of hours into finding the right kind of dashcam. Viofo A119, or the A229. Since the market crash of 2009, auto insurance scams went up 1200 % within 2 years and with the increased cost of everything now, I can only assume that number has gone up. Even organized crime is involved, staging multi-vehicle crashes. EVERYONE needs a dashcam. If someone calls the police on you and it's their word against yours, you might lose in court. And not just traffic court. You can be charged criminally ( depending on that person's "story" ). If that happens, it will be months of stress, thousands on a lawyer and you still might lose. No license to get to and from work, thousands in fines, sued civilly, and angry for 10 years with much higher insurance premiums. This is a worst case scenario, but it happens everyday, all over the world. ## Whenever there's an incident, save the recording on your PC incase someone tries to blame you etc. Dashcams re-record once the SD card is full, so buy the largest SD card that the dashcam can handle., and format the SD card in the camera when you first put it in and reformat the SD card every couple of months to stop any bugs from popping up. No dashcam is "very" reliable, which is why I run 2. 2 out the front and 2 out the back. I recommend fishing the cord through the headliner at the top of the windshield, then down the side inside of the rubber seal by the hinge, then under the dash and back towards the engine, all the way left, then have it come forward. That way it's not too susceptible of getting snagged on somebody's bag etc. There are tons of YouTube videos showing this method. This is all I've ever used.
r/HondaOdyssey • Dash cam noob. ->Viofo A119. I've been using them for several years. They're very good. Just get an SD card that they recommend. Some SD cards don't work well in dash cams, even though they're fast cards. Also, format the card inside of the dash cam, that's very important. Also, every month or two reformat the card again. There are a lot of hot and cold cycles inside of a car, resetting everything in the dash cam, keeps bugs from cropping up. You can get one that has a small camera that you mount on the back window. They're quite affordable, and very reliable. I did a boatload of research several years ago, and even now, there are none that are more reliable in that price range. Even ones two and three times more expensive, aren't really any clearer in the video, and not necessarily more reliable either.
r/rav4club • Best DashCam for 2024 XSE? ->I have not. But FYI: You can buy good quality dashcams for less than $200 with front and rear capabilities that last years. A119 Viofo.
r/rav4club • Dash cam. ->Make sure you buy an SD card that Viafo recommend { some SD cards don't work well in dashcams, even if they are high quality }. And make sure you format the SD card in the dashcam. It matters.
r/rav4club • Dash cam. ->In the "settings" in the dashcam there is { in the Viofo A119 series dashcams }, a setting for "format". It's where you can choose options like resolution, date & time etc.
r/rav4club • Dash cam. ->I've been using the Viofo A119 dash cam for nearly 10 years. It's very reliable ( as far as dash cams go, they don't last forever because of the extreme heat inside of the vehicles in summer, and the extreme cold in winter, mixed with humidity ). I switched mine out every 3 years or so, just so it doesn't fail unexpectedly. Get a quality SD card, and format it inside of the dash cam. Also, reformat it every couple of months or so, just to keep any bugs from cropping up.
r/rav4club • Hi, it’s me again. Reasonably priced dash cam? ->**Make sure** whatever dashcam you buy has a **capacitor and NOT a battery.** In the summer the interior of cars can get well above 120° and **cook the battery**. A capacitor will survive, no problem. The same for the winter, the **batteries fail in the constant, deep cold,** capacitors don't. **Viofo A129 Plus Duo, or A229, or A119 are all very inexpensive but quite reliable { as far as dashcams go }** \- I've done a lot of research into dashcams. **EVERYONE should have them. They can save hundreds of thousands of dollars, years of stress and keep you out of prison.** Insurance fraud has sky rocketed since the 2009 economy crash. Elaborate schemes can cause injury and death, but it can also net the fraudsters a ton of money. I have been using Viofo for about 10 years. I replace the camera's every 3 years or so, just so they can be as stable as possible. I replace the SD cards every 2 cameras { 6 years }. **Make sure you get the biggest SD card the camera can hold { so you can record many hours, in case a complaint is made against you the following day etc. }. AND get a SD card manufacturer that Viofo recommends**, or you can have problems with recordings. { I never have }. Also, if an "incident" happens, even if it's minor, copy the few mins before, in case a police officer shows up a week later { your footage would have overwritten that footage by then } **Make sure you reformat the SD card INSIDE of the camera once in awhile.** Sometimes dashcams jam up and fail to record or shut off during recording and reformatting the SD card can keep this from happening.
r/rav4club • Dash Cam Option ->I used to like Voifo but my A119 kept overheating in the Texas heat. I have since switched to a Thinkware (F200?) that attaches to a bracket rather than adhering directly on the windshield. Plus not having a screen feels much better.
r/dashcams • I analyzed the 25 most recommended dashcams on Reddit ->I second the Viofo A119 front and rear facing. It comes with long cords and plenty of sticky pads for mounting. Connection to my phone was easy, and the video quality is great.
r/Austin • Dashcam advice? ->Been using the VIOFO A119 for 2ish years now and it's still going. If it's the summertime with my car parked in the sun, I'll unclip it and stash it away though.
r/phoenix • Dashcams that can handle the heat? ->You need to see if it's pointed correctly.
r/phoenix • Dashcams that can handle the heat? ->Viofo A119 Is what I used to use, but when I got my 2022XLE I decided to f it, went with the factory installed dashcam. Works great, no visible wiring, enclosure looks like it’s just an extension of the rear mirror and I don’t notice it’s there…granted, it was much more expensive (one-time expense for the life of the car). But, I didn’t have to hook it up to the internal wiring myself and it activates when I hit a big bump, or someone walks near my vehicle when I’m gone, or any time it thinks there might be ‘an event’ regardless if the car is on or not…and I can pull footage wirelessly or with the card.
r/Camry • What's everyone's go to dashcam? ->Used to have this, but the adhesive doesn’t hold up to high heats in the summer and constantly falls off. Any alternatives out there?
r/dashcams • dashcam came in clutch ->I currently have the Viofo A119 just in the front of my Tucson. Direct hard wired installation was very easy. Very happy with the build quality and video resolution, also good in low light. Has done well for a few years now. My next purchase will be the Viofo A229 front and rear package. If new to installing by yourself, check out ChrisFix on YouTube, guy knows what he's talking about and is completely honest. https://youtu.be/lQtZF0g51Ak?si=CpOOT-ayirqEJyFj
r/Hyundai • 2024 Sonata Hybrid Front and Rear Dash cam recommendations ->I have the Viofo A119 and the A229 Pro, both going strong no issues at all. Both hardwired to the vehicles and sat out in the extreme cold/heat no issues. And honestly the best quality video compared to Thinkware/Blackvue by miles and the price points are very competitive!
r/Dashcam • Is Viofo a worthy brand? ->That seems to be the consensus about ROVE. I ended up just going with the VIOFO A119. Thanks for the response!
r/Dashcam • I was about to buy the ROVE R3 when my fiancée told me to check you all out first. Any thoughts on ROVE as I didn’t see much about it on here? ->No complaints so far.
r/Dashcam • I was about to buy the ROVE R3 when my fiancée told me to check you all out first. Any thoughts on ROVE as I didn’t see much about it on here? ->I have two a119’s. One for front, one for back. Been running them for about 80k miles / 10 years now. Same SD cards too. *cue my a119 failures.
r/Dashcam • Why does literally every dash cam have negative reviews which state the camera fails after several weeks or months? ->I have a Viofo front and rea rone. Check out the LinusTechTips video on dashcams - they all use the same sensors
r/GR86 • What dash cams does everybody use? ->Did the Viofo a119 hooked into the rear view mirror with a Dongar adapter. Nice and clean look with just the one short wire
r/BroncoSport • Anyone have a dashcam setup they like for their Bronco Sport? ->Viofo is my go-to. I've installed a119, a229, and a129. App is a little wonky sometimes but great picture and audio.
r/FordBronco • Dash cams? ->I've owned several Viofos and I don't trust them anymore with their built in capacitors that died. I now have 70mai brand. Have the model A800S
r/Ioniq5 • Recommendations for a dash cam? ->Did you find a better option? In PHX and used to have the old A119 but it also died from the heat in less than a year was hoping they had improved since then.
r/Dashcam • [deleted by user] ->I had the same thing happen except my camera actually melted a little - something clearly went wrong inside. Luckily, it was under warranty and Viofo sent me a new one. That was four years ago and no problems with the replacement so far.
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->Viofo a119 does great in the heat. It also uses a capacitor instead of a battery for saving the video when the power cuts. Supposed to do better in high temps than batteries.
r/florida • Florida friends, how does a dash cam here not become a hot mess? Literally. ->Viofo A119,A129, or A229 depending on what you’re looking for are all good. The cable thing you tuck it in behind your trim so it isn’t dangling. Going to be a thing for any dash cam.
r/orlando • Dash Cameras ->Viofo A119 or A129 for the win.
r/florida • Florida friends, how does a dash cam here not become a hot mess? Literally. ->We have the Viofo A119 and like it a lot. Got it after watching a YouTube review on various dash cams.
r/AskReddit • What is expensive but absolutely worth the money? ->I got the A119 cam with the 10pin Type B adapter. Other Voifo cams might fit your needs better. Mine's pretty basic.
r/Subaru_Outback • Recommendation on Dash cams 2025 outback ->The A119 is good also. The main difference being the two cameras in the A229. All cars should have dashcams.
r/fordranger • What dashcams are y’all running? ->I own a Viofo A229 plus front+rear on my Civic. If you only want a front cam then the A119 is a great option. I put one on my girlfriend's car and on my parents' car
r/civic • Recommendation for a dash cam for a 2025 Civic? ->Viofo a119, a129 and the like have served us well in 4 cars for the last decade. Don’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone and I’m running one in our 2019 R
r/Golf_R • Best dash cam? ->My Garmin only lasted a few years also. I replaced it with a VIOFO A119
r/dashcams • How long do dashcams actually last? ->Viofo a119 and linked it up to the power from the power rear view mirror via a splitter
r/rav4prime • Dashcam for Primes ->I'm not a c43 owner but I use an A119 I believe. It's super solid. A229 is an even better option.
r/AMG • C43 Coupe dashcam? ->I got a Viofo A119 and an adapter so that it piggybacks off of the power to the rear view mirror. Nice and clean. The adapter is a Dongar 10-pin type-A that I got off Amazon.
r/nissanfrontier • Dash cams ->VIOFO Dash Cam A119, I got this on sale for 85 last year. Ifs easy to install and powered from cig lighter via usb plug. I just tucked the wire around the headliner trim down the pillar under dash etc. If you can install a ez pass scanner on your windshield you can do this lol. My only con is this is only forward facing. You might want to do both front and rear cameras.
r/SouthJersey • Any recommendations for dashcam installation? ->I installed a Rexing dashcam on my '23. Not happy with it. Crappy app is mostly useless, doesn't work as intended and hardware loses settings every few weeks and resets itself to factory settings even though it is hardwired to the fuse box. On my other old suv I've got a Viofo A119 installed in 2016, 8 years ago. No problems with it. Glad you got a Viofo unit, you should have no problems with it.
r/crv • Anyone recently buy & install a dashcam in a 2024/25 CRV? ->I’ve also had really good luck with the A119 and A129 in the Arizona heat for the last few years. Although most capacitor dashcams should be able to handle heat. Here are all the [operating temps for different cameras. ](https://www.reddit.com/r/dashcams/s/8bg7mGCAsL) Hope that’s helpful
r/Dashcam • First time buying a dashcam and seriously overwhelmed. Which one fits my requirements the best? ->I’ve also had really good luck with the A119 and A129 in the Arizona heat for the last few years.

r/Dashcam • Dash cam recommendations for Texas driving ->I'm successfully using Viofo A119 and this cable on my two Toyotas https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D2D78KMJ?ref=emc_b_5_mob_t Other Redditors reported success with this one as well https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZ7QJVHC?ref=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apin_dp_H76099TX42XDAEK2XCE3&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apin_dp_H76099TX42XDAEK2XCE3&social_share=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apin_dp_H76099TX42XDAEK2XCE3&starsLeft=1&skipTwisterOG=1 You just buy this cable (12P type C), open the lane assist cover, connect this Y cable in between the lane assist connection, and with that, you have a powered USB port right in the middle of your windshield. Then just install the Viofo cam or anything else needed and connect it there. Done. Simple as that. No hard routing in the A-pillars etc. It's the same method FitcamX uses, except Fitcamx is pretty bad quality compared to Viofo. Viofo always alerts when the recording is not working for whatever reason, FitcamX stays silent so you can easily miss recording on accident.
r/rav4club • For those who have Dash Cams in your RAV4 Hybrid ->Exactly, no splicing needed for 2019+. I can confirm the first one works on my 2024 RAV4 and 2022 Yaris. Plug and play. Clean install.
r/rav4club • For those who have Dash Cams in your RAV4 Hybrid ->I’m successfully using Viofo A119 and this cable on my two Toyotas https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D2D78KMJ?ref=emc_b_5_mob_t Other Redditors reported success with this one as well https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CZ7QJVHC?ref=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apin_dp_H76099TX42XDAEK2XCE3&ref_=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apin_dp_H76099TX42XDAEK2XCE3&social_share=cm_sw_r_cso_cp_apin_dp_H76099TX42XDAEK2XCE3&starsLeft=1&skipTwisterOG=1 You just buy this cable (12P type C), open the lane assist cover, connect this Y cable in between the lane assist connection, and with that, you have a powered USB port right in the middle of your windshield.

r/rav4club • Dash cam recommendations? ->Mine works with just plugging it into my computer. Make sure you plug it unit the camera itself not the GPS module. If that doesn’t work maybe the cable is bad?
r/dashcams • dashcam came in clutch ->Viofo A119 and most (if not all) of their other models use capacitors. The 119 is the best quality for the price IMHO. You can get a hardwire kit if you want it to record while you're parked.
r/dashcams • dashcam came in clutch ->We have a viofo A119 in the car I passed down to my youngest, and when I bought a truck I installed a viofo A129 plus duo front and back. I bought an extra GPS mount with the A119 for our minivan, I swap the camera into this car for long road trips. Very happy with both.
r/Dashcam • Drop your Amazon tried dash cams ->Second this one, make sure you get the hard wiring kit and a solid SD card and you’ll be set
r/rav4club • Dash cam. ->How do I format it in the dashcam? I’ve never heard of this!
r/rav4club • Dash cam. ->Not sure, I don’t have a warranty from Toyota.
r/rav4club • Dash cam. ->Viofo. I have the A119 i bought 4 years ago. I want to upgrade but it's still going strong. I'm in the west Texas area.
r/Dashcam • Dash cam recommendations for Texas driving ->I've used Viofo for more than 10 years with no issues. I recently upgraded to a A229 duo channel which is $300 but my A119 still works great if you want to go less expensive
r/Dashcam • What kind of dashcam should I get? ->Yes! I was gonna recommend the A119 specifically for its use of a capacitor. I have it in both my vehicles. It’s an amazing dash cam.
r/florida • Florida friends, how does a dash cam here not become a hot mess? Literally. ->Viofo A119. Get the one with the GPS because it has a slightly different mount. The gps mount allows you to unhook the cam easily without having to unplug it if you want to hide it in a glove box. This camera uses a capacitor to hold a charge to finish recording video when you turn your car off. Lots of cameras use batteries for this which as you know are horrendous when left in the sun. The Viofo is also amazing at night time. $89 on Amazon. I have them in both my cars and have for years. A few friends have it, my in laws, and my parents. Not a single issue with any of them. I do use a sunscreen on my windshield so I remove the cam when I park though. But it’s been in the sun for years without problems. It comes with a long USB cable or you can buy a hardwire kit which is super easy to hardwire if you’re not afraid of some DYI.
r/Broward • Anyone have a dash-cam recommendation that could withstand the South FL heat in the car? ->I use this same exact one and we have 6 of them in all my families cars and non have failed. Just make sure to buy a Samsung endurance SD.
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->This. Have had mine for 2+ years and 0 issues so far
r/florida • Florida friends, how does a dash cam here not become a hot mess? Literally. ->I have a Viofo 119 (cant remember which), which I have had for a few years now. It has been very reliable. If I was going to replace it, it would be with another Viofo, but a later 2 channel model. Whatever you decide on, get a capacitor model rather than battery. The MiVue I had kept overheating (hot car, hot environment) and although it was really good, I gave up in favour of capacitor.
r/CarsAustralia • What dash cam would you recommend? ->I also have the viofo A119. Someone just ran a red light and totaled my car on Thursday. The only complaint I have about the Viofo is it doesn’t have an internal battery so I couldn’t plug it in at the scene to show the cops, and since it doesn’t have WiFi I couldn’t get it on my phone. So the unlicensed, uninsured driver who lied that the light was green, only got two citations instead of 3. The cops told me it was now a “civil matter” and didn’t want the footage emailed to them. So I will be upgrading for the front view and moving this cam to my rear view, since it’s easier to determine fault in a rear collision. The footage is helpful for my insurance, I have uninsured driver coverage, but ultimately I am fucked in having to replace my car and put money I don’t have towards a new car because of someone else’s stupidity, so I am still in the bitter “ruin their life” stage of things and would have loved for them to get another citation for running the red light. The fines for not having a license (max $200) and not having insurance (max $400) are not enough.
r/Austin • Dashcam advice? ->I also recommend Viofo. I've been using the Viofo A119 for years without a single issue. Between friends and family, I know over a dozen people with the Viofo cameras and no one has had an issue. I even handed my original one down to my parents and it's still working after 7-8 years. I upgraded from the A119 model to the Viofo A129 Duo Plus when I got my Bronco to get a rear camera and wifi. I really like it, but the rear cord just barely had enough length the way I routed it. The A129 Duo Pro has a longer rear cord. I have the camera to the right of my mirror along with my EZPass. I tucked the wires into the head liner, down the A-pilar (be sure not to bring it across the air bag), under the glove box, and plugged it into the 12v in the center console. There was extra wire for the front camera, so I used a small zip tie under the glove box to keep it out of site. For the rear camera, it was more involved. I didn't want to run it down the top since it would cross the airbag, so I ran it down the A-pilar, tucked it in the trim under the front and rear doors, then up the C-pilar and to the rear glass. When mounting the rear camera, make sure you open both the rear hatch and the glass to make sure you have enough slack.
r/BroncoSport • Anyone have a dashcam setup they like for their Bronco Sport? ->'21 model, I've had mine plugged into the USB-A port in the center console without issue. Assuming the same power output from the newer type-C port, you should be good. Viofo A119 camera btw
r/MazdaCX30 • Dashcam ->For mine it was, yeah. I know some cameras need a higher power output than the .5A typically provided by in-vehicle USB ports, but at least in my CX-30 with my Viofo camera, everything works fine off the OEM ports. The camera is just powered over USB-C, so it'll take pretty much whatever input so long as it's enough juice to run. In fact, I actually couldn't even use the cigarette adapter since in my 2021 model it's always powered even with the car off and will drain the battery overnight if left connected, while the USB ports shut off automatically after about 5 minutes.
r/MazdaCX30 • Dashcam ->There is a neat community and [recommendations thread on /r/dashcams](https://www.reddit.com/r/dashcams/comments/1iube1b/dashcam_recommendations_on_reddit/). Helped me get my A119 which was around $90 when I got it on sale.
r/askcarguys • Dashcam recommendations? ->Texan here with the A119. I’ve had it for over 5 years, no issues
r/Costco • Anyone have the Atomi dash cam or done any research on it? ->I've got a viofo a119 and the dual cam version in 2 cars in similar conditions to what Texas would be like
r/Dashcam • Worth the extra money for the sensor? ->I’ve had a Viofo A119 for 5 years now still going strong and takes good video.
r/phoenix • Dash cam recommendations that hold up to the heat? ->Best way is to do it yourself. Not very technical. You’ll learn a bit about your car. Sorry I don’t know mechanics in Mumbai yet I used viofo a119 with great results and no problems. A129 is their two channel product
r/mumbai • Looking for a Reliable Dash Cam Installation in Mumbai mg hector ->I used a119 viofo too. Shoot me your questions
r/mumbai • Looking for a Reliable Dash Cam Installation in Mumbai mg hector ->Can second the Viofo A119. Get the polarizing lens and add a fuse kit. Install takes less than an hour. Resolution/Quality is awesome.
r/ToyotaTacoma • Recommended Dash Cam for 2017 Tacoma? ->I had Viofo A119 for a couple of years and no issues. Recorded some crazy sh*t, was even on a TV :) Overall I have 3 of those in 2 cars.
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->Same here, been working perfectly in my black truck
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->I keep seeing people complain of poor quality video and quality control of the FitcamX (powering down frequently and rebooting). I just went with Viofo A119 and it’s not bad for the price. Reasonably discreet and pretty good features. (GPS ,adjustable levels of 4K @30fps , but will do good 1080@60fps)
r/Camry • What brand Dashcam should I buy ->Screw it looking oe. What you really want is a good camera. Viofo makes some of the better ones WITH a rear camera as well. After doing lots of research, lots of them use garbage cameras but the better ones use Sony. Specifically the Song Starvis. The Starvis 2 just recently came out and viofo made a new one with the 2. Good cam, doesn't look ugly. Supports parking recording and collision detection. [viofo Amazon ](https://a.co/d/izrOa1d)
r/mazda3 • Dash cam for current 3 models ->Viofo front and rear. With all dashcams, hardwire them for 24 hour recording.
r/FordBronco • What’s the best dash cam for a 2023 Ford Bronco ->Get a VIOFO and hardwire kit. It can do a type of sentry mode if it has constant power. I use the 119 and 129 front and rears on my vehicles, no problems in a few years so far.
r/dashcams • I need help finding a dash cam that will record while my cars off. Someone keeps denting and scratching my car. At this point it obviously intentional. ->Same, but I upgraded to the Mini 2. Better night images. But the A119 is now my back view camera.
r/AskReddit • What is expensive but absolutely worth the money? ->https://preview.redd.it/1rif3p3oz2cd1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30b84081760984a2974d7643ad00a20b69f6a0d3 That's the VIOFO 119. I routed the wires through the headliner and behind the A pillar. It also has a rear facing companion camera I route through the trim to the back.
r/FordMaverickTruck • Dash cam ->Yes, although I would go for any Viofo with the Sony Starvis sensor.
r/hondafit • Dash cam recommendations? ->I've had good luck with the viofo a229 4k. Their cheaper model, which I think the a119, seems to be pretty decent as well though not quite as good video quality. In either case, I'd keep the microphone turned on, and if you witness an accident instinctively shout out loud the license plate number. Odds are it's going to be difficult to read on the video, especially at night Ditto and not cheaping out on the SD card. In fact, I probably just buy the viofo card. The heat and constant rewriting tends to kill the cheaper cards
r/hondafit • Dash cam recommendations? ->I have an Viofo A119 that's been going strong for 8 or 9 years in 2 different cars. I keep my car indoors so that might help explain the longevity.
r/Dashcam • What do you consider to be a good lifespan for a dashcam? I’m retiring this NextBase 222x after almost 4 years ->https://preview.redd.it/2t8jarrgauvd1.jpeg?width=960&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8cbf669ad86d659eb00721fcf8d0abd999bbab00 Viofo A119 drawing power directly from the rear view mirror with this [adapter](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B088P4VFQ7/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_i_Q980HKFVBAW548F5DRT8?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1). Easy and clean install! (2022 Badlands)
r/bronco • Best dash cam? ->The best cameras are the Viofos but the Fitcam is the easiest to install cleanly and looks OEM so it really depends on what you're after.
r/Polestar • Dash cam Recommendations ->Viofo. Class leading image quality. Class leading longevity. Only middling price. The 119 is an excellent camera. I’ve had several of them, and a couple of 129. There’s a 329 series now, which looks good, but I doubt its image quality scales with its price. That’s the downfall of almost all dash cams.
r/CarsAustralia • What dash cam would you recommend? ->VIOFO A119. I've had mine for over 3 years and it's great.
r/frisco • Dash cam recommendations? Road rage is out of control around here. ->Running a Viofo A119. I do believe they offer a model with rear camera capability.
r/nissanfrontier • Dash cam recommendations ->Lots of good brands out there, i personally recommend the Viofo A119. I’ve been using mine for nearly 4 years now and it’s been great. Disclaimer: I am not sponsored by them or any other brand
r/TorontoDriving • Get a dash cam. There is absolutely no reason to not have a dashcam in your car. ->Viofo A119 Less than 2 years so far, crystal clear videos and easily legible license plates
r/f150 • What dashcam are you all using? ->Go to dashcamtalk.com and they have comprehensive list of the best. I use the Viofo A119 and its the best. i also used the Dongar review mirror tap and it made the install the easiest.
r/hondaridgeline • Updated list of the best dash cams ->This is the one I use, as well. It's been doing the job, but there have been occasions where the unit doesn't begin to record when the vehicle is started. Thankfully, you can see this happening because the red REC led light blinks rapidly. Turning it off/on again seems to rectify it. It hasn't happened for sometime, but it was a concern.
r/hondaridgeline • Updated list of the best dash cams ->In Florida mine were getting fried. Just due to the heat I guess. Someone somewhere recommended Viofo a119 and it has held up well.
r/hondaridgeline • Updated list of the best dash cams ->I had the same idea, but ended up not doing it for mostly the same concern. I ended up putting in a Viofo 119, and used an 11ft right angle usb cable tucked under the edge of all the trim, down and around to the outlet in the center console. I wanted the "practically invisible" installation of the fitcam, but other than the little loop of cable coming up into the outlet, it's very neat and tidy. And from what I gather, the cam I went with is a much better camera anyway, for less money.
r/Volvo • Dash cam = void warranty? ->My viofo a119 is just over 2 years old. Phoenix AZ. Never had a problem, never had to replace the memory card either.
r/Dashcam • Why does literally every dash cam have negative reviews which state the camera fails after several weeks or months? ->Viofo A119 has been in my car for 2 years now and still going strong. It sits in full sun all day.
r/phoenix • Dashcams that can handle the heat? ->Same, I’ve had mine almost 2 years. I never take it out of the car except to dump the videos and it’s frequently in full sun all summer. No problems.
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->I run dash cams in all my cars. I have a viofo a119 hardwired using their kit to give it power while parked in my C55. Nice peace of mind.
r/AMG • Do any of you all use dash cams to help protect your car while parked? ->I have a Viofo 119 with an pigtail adapter that powered it from the rearview mirror. Very happy but wishing that I went with a dual cam setup.
r/ToyotaTacoma • for those of you who have dashcams, what’s the best one that you’d recommend? ->Viofo A119 (although wishing I got the 129 or 229) paired with a Dongar adapter to power it through the rearview mirror kit
r/CX50 • Dashcams ->Viofo A119 or A129, or really anything from their line. I've used the same unit since 2019 and it has worked perfectly ever since, holds up to below zero temps as well as 100+ F days. Power is done via a Dongar adapter.
r/F150Lightning • Dash Cam ->I used a viofo a119 for a long time. It was a good camera, but I don’t think I ever got parking mode to work properly. It was nice because it had a screen and a really low profile. I’m now using a BlackVue DR770X. It’s more pricey, but I think the quality in every way is a little bit better. The parking mode works really well and my mini can run the camera for several days maximum before the low voltage cuts off. Although I don’t like doing that anymore because it does seem hard on the battery.
r/MINI • Good dash cam recommendations? ->I have this one too, it's great for the price. I bought it after watching this Linus Tech Tips video where he compared a load of different ones. https://youtu.be/4AnyhHl3_tE?si=eBIBPlDdfNipuffn
r/irelandsshitedrivers • Can anyone recommend a decent dash cam that won’t cost an arm and a leg. ->Yes, you're out of touch. VIOFO A119 are very good and about €120 online and that's as cheap as I'd go. You get what you pay for, anything cheaper won't capture the detail at night or won't survive the harsh life just inside a windscreen. You've seen the shite people are doing on the roads, it wouldn't take a scratch for your insurance to jump twice that much every year.
r/irelandsshitedrivers • Can anyone recommend a decent dash cam that won’t cost an arm and a leg. ->VIOFO A119 is good and has Wifi functionality
r/mazda3 • What dashcam do you guys use or recommend? ->In 2015, I bought some shitty thing that I just looked up in my Amazon history. KDLinks it was called. It was a piece of crap and it fell off its mount and I ran it over in my driveway. After that, I spent like $500 on a Waylens via kickstarter. It was one of the first with OBDII connectivity. It was pretty slick and had awesome overlays on the video, but the mount was absolutely rubbish so the videos were all jittery and shitty. Then I bought a cheap VIOFO A119 and it just worked. So I bought an A129 Duo for my wife’s car. And another A129 Duo for my commuting car. And recently an A139 Pro 2ch for my new car. After 6 years on the oldest one, they are all still working flawlessly.
r/Dashcam • Dashcam you use ->Viofo A119, you won’t need anything else. Any better Viofo model will do well too I’m sure!
r/Dashcam • Dashcam you use ->https://www.blackboxmycar.com/collections/2-channel-dash-cams My budget pick is the VIOFO A129 Plus Duo. I've got one installed in an F-150 and an older A119 in a Ram 1500. I have a BlackVue DR590X-2CH in my Golf but spending the extra money on that one might not be worth it.
r/Volvo • Dash cam that doesn't break the bank ->If you're picking up a new model, I believe there's a dealer installed Toyota dashcam option. Otherwise the VIOFO A119 is pretty cheap and highly rated as a dashcam. It's pretty simple to tuck the wire into the headliner so it doesn't hang down to the power.
r/prius • Dash cam recommendations ->Same here. Just getting delivered a viofo a119 today for something basic.
r/Edmonton • It's dash cam season - looking for recommendations ->Viofo a119. Just front dash cam. Must include polarizing filter to obtain the best results.
r/Tacomaworld • What dash cam yall running? ->Had same. It died within a year. I think some solder inside melted.
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->I see. Thanks. I’m reluctant to buy another one if the same model because of it. I see people are downvoting. Weird. I’m not badmouthing it. I’m just telling what happened to me.
r/phoenix • Can anyone recommend a dash cam that will function in Phoenix heat? ->Is it a newer model? Caz my viofo from 2020 failed me the only time I needed it's footage to find the driver who side rubbed my car on the road. He sped away. Number plate was not legible. And the darn wifi transfers were dead slow.
r/Camry • Toyota installed dash cam ->I have had 4 different dash cams in four different vehicles and only one fail. And it started failimg because of the way it plugged in to USB. i'm guessing over the years it just kind of jiggled loose. tape was holding it together .I got rid of was because the software stopped working on android 13 because it was never updated. That was a vantrue but it was still working. I have a Rexing now and when I lost the rear camera somehow (when moving car to car) they actually sent me a new rear camera free of charge. That was some really impressive customer service. The A119 in my wifes car and Kenwood in my truck are the original ones I stuck in there years ago and I still working fine.
r/Dashcam • Why does literally every dash cam have negative reviews which state the camera fails after several weeks or months? ->Whatever you end up getting, I highly recommend the wedge style like the viofo a119. It's less dangling in front of your view and it's more hidden so it's not obvious you have it.
r/hondafit • Has anyone had luck finding a good dashcam for the Fit? ->We're getting a voifo a119 (a129 if you want dual cameras) The one thing I highly recommend if you have an autodim rear mirror (maybe check the pins) is this piggyback connector, makes it easy to install it and not snake the cable around. https://dongar.tech/en-ca/products/mazdaframeless?srsltid=AfmBOoo91Wqepo1GsJES_8YjuT7brF93ImzwslxuM2LXciQjvcJeIamz
r/MazdaCX30 • Dash Cams ->
