if u want absolutely nothing showing, u would need a professional, and it would cost money. but i did it myself with very minimal showing. the windshield area and beside the glove compartment, both can be tucked in, the side of 2 seats for the rear camera wire can also be tucked in. whats left showing is between windshield down to glove compartment, and from rear seat to the actual rear camera
I still have some wire showing from the glove compartment to the usb port in the centre console. How'd you get around that? Did you use tape? If so, what kind? Tried electrical tape which didn't work very well.rfdnewbie6910 wrote: ↑ if u want absolutely nothing showing, u would need a professional, and it would cost money. but i did it myself with very minimal showing. the windshield area and beside the glove compartment, both can be tucked in, the side of 2 seats for the rear camera wire can also be tucked in. whats left showing is between windshield down to glove compartment, and from rear seat to the actual rear camera
ya dont use electrical tape, learned first hand, heat will melt that shit and its gonna be nasty, had to use acetone to clean it off. from glove compartment, i tuck it under as much as possible, then run it down, and went under the mat, obv from the mat up to the usb port, it will show, but thats whatever.
Sometimes it does, for around 195, but if you buy this item and add https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B07CT5Q5JY, it actually comes down to 189 which is a better deal. That's what I just did.

It seems that the add-on is only compatible with the newer A129 models.rfdnewbie6910 wrote: ↑ thats just regular duo, pro is 4k
Yeah I'm holding out for the 1440p + 1080p duo to go on sale, Black Friday if not before then!rfdnewbie6910 wrote: ↑ that i wouldnt know...i meant the one that goes on sale for 195 is probably the regular duo, 1080p, or maybe plus at 1440p, theres no way the pro, 4k, goes down to 195 CAD
If you have a powered rear view mirror (for auto dimmer, garage door opener, etc.) there is a chance that you can wire to that. This obviously varies depending on car make/model/trim, but it is by far the cleanest solution, since there's no need to run a wire to the center console.
Don't run to your existing usb ports but run to the car fuse box. Those are normally in the footwell of driver/passenger and you can usually get to them through the door trim pieces with no visible wires till the very bottom (which are usually less obtrusive).
Yeah, I have one. Just waiting until the winter tire change to install the hardwire kit and hide the OBD somewhere else.factor27 wrote: ↑ Don't run to your existing usb ports but run to the car fuse box.

You need a hardwire kit or a 12v to usb adapter for this though.
had the a129 duo in my car for the past 2 winters, always parked outside too, i would assume the a119 would hold up just as well. if anything the adhesive for the front camera didnt hold up in the first summer, pretty much melted, luckily it came with an extra one, and that one has been holding up fine, so maybe i just got unlucky with the first oneDealLurkerAllDay wrote: ↑ What's the longevity of these in -20C weather?
