I was planning in purchasing BlackVue 650 - but decided to purchase an ThinkWare F750 for only £190 for front and rear, speed camera, collision warning - comparable video quality to Blackview. But my issue apart from the E89 Fuse box is the position of were to place my rear view camera.

To start, below are some samples videos: different driving & light conditions




So thats all Kool, now the issue with the rear camera

Below is my positing of rear camera

The only place i can now think of is above the rear view mirror.

Unless some one else can recommend an different location?





I will update when I have the new new cables - with its new position.

So do you have both front and rear camera's mounted on the windscreen?

My only worry is that if leaving the car parked, even on the drive, the camera is a target for thieves. Not that I leave mine anywhere much with the hood down.
I was contemplating a dvd with two bullet cams but can't find anything suitable.

Looks a nice clean install, but I'd feel self conscious having the camera in my face like that!

If peeps want to see it best quality, then open the vid in YouTube and set it to 1080p. By default embedded vids only run at 480p.

Cheers for that heads up Gaz. I'm thinking of upgrading my dash cam and that does look good. Not sure if that's not the one @billz has?

Sorry mate, I'm mistaken. Where did you buy yours, if you don't mind me asking please?

Looks like a good bit of kit. I'd love that

If you mean the Dod then loads on ebay. Or type in Dod ls460w and lots of shops and it has come down in price by about £30
