So my cheap and cheerful dash cam is beginning to crumble away, literally, the suction pad remained attached to the window and the rest of the bracket and unit dropped down to earth with a thud whilst driving this evening.

 

I've decided I'm going to get a Nextbase rather than replace the bracket. I want one with a rear cam module however haven't decided on the model yet but will do soon.

 

I've got two queries:

1. The power lead NB use, is it a mini USB? I've already got one hardwired in so to save time and £££ if this fits I'll be happy.

 

2. Would somebody be able to take a photo of the connection on the rear view cam wire that goes into the 'front' cam. I've looked online and can't seem to see it in any of the images. Wondering if a generic rear view cam will fit and work with a NB unit.

 

Thanks

I have the Nextbase 522gw camera and it uses a mini usb power lead. I just use the Nextbase rear module plugged into the side for rearward recording.

👍 Thanks for that, saves messing around in the glovebox again.

 

I've seen the plugged in modules, however I prefer the one for the rear screen for coverage and so my mug isn't recorded 24/7 when driving 😂

Good choice with the Nextbase - when my mount started to get a bit loose, I pinged them an email and they sent a new one the next day even though it was a couple of months out of warranty.
