Anyone running this set up on their rig ? Can only find one post on this so not sure if that’s telling me something or it’s just not that popular ? Any help would be appreciated. These are the only pics I can find on google.

Here is a better pic of the hole and grommet.

Mounted mine of the bottom of the window Drilled a small hole to run the wires for the BlackVue and used 3M tape for the camera on the moulding. Threw a small grommet in the hole for the finishing touches and I have had this set up for a year at least and the rear window is down quite a bit for...

Bought new in August of 2017 - 24 k miles.

Update Ok thanks for all the tips. I got those diode chips on Amazon so I will try that next. I got the accessory battery for the dash cam and since I’ve had it on 4 days the Volts are sitting at around 12.1 prior to this they would drop a .# every day not driving. So that’s a plus...

Ok just to ask the obvious how much does short trips and super low kms affect battery / alternator health ? I put the dash cam on a stand alone battery and the battery was at 12.3 yesterday it’s at 12.1 this am. I can’t run a battery tender due to where it’s parked. What about a solar trickle...

Hi no it’s 12.2 after 15 min of shutdown. It’s mid 13 driving. I put a stand alone accessory mini battery in for the dash cam so I’ll keep monitoring it.

I’m at 13.4 driving and 15 min later I’m at 12.2 I’m going to throw in a separate power supply for the dash cam and see if that fixes it. I might be able to run the alarm off that too so I will soon find out I’m at the shop now. The alarm and dash cam are critical where I live. Car theft...

I think that’s what I’m thinking as well. And I do think it’s a known problem so I ensured all the offending features that run when the engine is off and not on and it also has a manual shut off at 12.0 I tested the viper before and it was fine but that may have changed so I was thinking the...

Ya I checked the voltage it’s always around 11.9 to 12.1 when starting then the test they did seems to show the voltage jumping around with the acc all on and running. That’s who thought it was the alt

Hi I’m hoping to get some input on the issue I’m having in a 2017 TRD Off Road ( cdn ) so I’ll set the stage as to what’s going on. Had the truck since new. It currently has 37 k on odo Have a Viper SmartStart ( new low draw module ) installed Have a BlackVue front and rear dash cam and...

I’d like to know the dealer as well. I have had a super bad experience with one already In the GTA ( Toronto ) I do my own oil changes and doc everything but I had a stuck pad rotor groove warranty issue that went sideways fast and have not been to a dealer since. I need to find a good Toyota...

Check out the MIM Safe VarioBarrier I had the Raingler net and I really really wanted it to work but my Weimaraner had other ideas. He found the gaps pretty quickly and then the net idea was dead. I ended up getting a Variocage but I was going to try their barrier as it’s crash tested as well...

Vintage Tour de France team car horn This is what I’d get and I’m actually in the same boat and looking to replace the stock horn. I’d run it as a stand alone as my neighbours wouldn’t be happy to have this ties to the alarm system lol FIAMM Tourtoeter High tone - YouTube
