Discreet Dash Cam for Octavia

Featured Replies

Just out of interest, what discreet dash cam set up would be the best for a mk2 Octavia?

 

I have been running a Nextbase 212 lite for the last 12 months or so. It was fitted behind my rear view mirror on my previous car which had a RLS and was totally hidden.

 

My new car does not have a RLS so there is not enough room behind the rear view mirror to hide it totally.

 

I am just wondering what dash cams preferably with a screen can hide totally behind the rear view mirror without RLS?

 

Any suggestions gratefully received.

I've just fitted a Viofo? A119 V2 dashcam to my FL. Unit is very small and records in 1440p. Very quick, simple and neat installation to get the usb cable run around to power source. I did buy a usb lead with a right angled connector, as the supplied lead would come out at right angles.

Have you any photos of this installed, I'd be interested in something like this.

I use the thinkware f7750 front and rear cameras 

I do have some pics, I'll resize them and upload.

Pics added. I've powered the dashcam via a power only USB connection into the back of my Android infotainment module.

I have one of these fitted too, quality is unequalled.... buy it from Gearbest for best deal http://www.gearbest.com/car-dvr/pp_392248.html

Make sure you get new A119S model, it is MUCH better quality video with Sony sensor and Novatek chipset. Only 99 with GPS and hardwire kit. I got one myself.

A Blackvue hides nicely.
