I have had a Viofo A119S in our 2017 Santa Fe since shortly after we got it It is front only. It is powered from an adapter connected to the mirror. Sorry, the company that made the adapter is no longer selling them on Amazon, but there may be others now. There is no GPS or Parking mode. I have always used 128GB SD cards, some designed / warranted for continuous recording devices.
I'm looking at a Viofo A329S dual (front & rear) for our 2026 Santa Fe Hybrid. I picked it because of image quality (license plates), history with Viofo, and the possibility to store video on an external SSD. The high resolution video really consumes storage. Viofo says a 512GB SD card will store 6 days worth of video when recording 3 hours a day (18 hours). I don't think that is a lot and am looking for longer recording times - trips rather than commuting.
The camera hasn't been purchased yet as I'm also looking for cargo tray, jack and tool kit. The spare arrived yesterday, hoist before the holidays. I am capable of installing it myself, and have watched installation videos, but am looking for someone in our area to install it. Someone that sees them frequently, not once every 9 years.
Rear camera - for the Viofo, a wire needs to be rum from the front camera to the rear camera as they both record on the SD card (or SSD). If you decide to go with the Fitcamx, you may want to consider a single camera for the rear.
SD cards - Don't go cheap. Look for SD cards that are warranted for continuous recording devices. Check r/dashcams for recommendations too.
I picked up a Viofo A329S dual camera setup - front and rear cameras. I did not opt for the third camera for the interior. This is my second Viofo. Our 2017 Santa Fe has a Viofo A119S, front only. It is powered by something similar to this - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BFRWC3X/
Powering a camera, any camera, depends on what options / features you want. Minimum configuration is a plug into the 'lighter' port with a wire running up to the camera. You can get fancier with a wire kit that runs from the camera to the fuse panel. You need to pick the right fuse - camera on only when the car is on? or do you have parking mode in the camera where the camera will record should the vehicle get bumped. I have an additional wire for the A329S that needs to be run from the camera to the glove box to connect a 2TB SSD for recording video.
Saw this was on sale but read some negative reviews so went with the tried and true Viofo A119M Pro for 139.99 instead on Amazon. Replaces my A119S from 2019 which did not fail but I felt the need to upgrade for the better night time quality and being able to get the videos instantly on my phone via the app instead of needing a computer to view the videos from the microsd card.
I second this! I have owned 3 viofo dashcam (different versions of the A119). Only one of them fell into a constant reboot loop. The oldest one is from 2022. I always recommend this brand to any friend who is looking for a dashcam.
