How did you Mobius guys attach yours to the car? Mine came with a black sleeve thing and some velcro but I'm a little concerned about vibrations.

Got it all wired up today, mounted the camera behind the rear view mirror, went to plus the power cable in and the goddamn mirror is blocking it! I had to use my interior panel pry tools to pry the glued mount from the glass then I used the velcro the camera came with to attach the mount to the glass. I'm happy and done though, except I just need to figure out a way to keep the wires in place along the side and the headliner!

Krakkles posted:Tuck them behind the headliner and side trim. The pry tool you mentioned is perfect for this, and it's easier than it looks. Ok, I'll try harder. It felt like I couldn't jam them in any further but I'll give it a shot using the tools.

spog posted:And I am crazy, or did someone just post that their dashcam had been stolen by a neighbour, then deleted the post? Not crazy. My wife called while driving home from work after midnight saying her dashcam was stolen but nothing else was taken (it's a beater civic but it has an ez-pass and a nice stereo). In the morning I went out and found that the glue on the mount failed and it fell and ended up completely out of sight. She parks her car at a public pay lot in NYC and there's a guy there that's hosed with the car in the past so we both immediately thought he swiped it.

spog posted:I felt really bad for you, so glad it wasn't stolen. I was livid since it has only been in the car for a week! Now I'm torn between keeping it on velcro (need to make it so it won't fall off in the heat again) or make it semi-permanent. My wife wants to be able to take it out of the car when she parks at work and at home, but I can see it being forgotten on the day we actually need to rely on the footage.

Seat Safety Switch posted:Knock out one of the foglights and install it behind the lens in a waterproof enclosure. Interesting idea but I don't care to spend the money to replace the already broken fog enclosures, or really do anything to make the car look nicer. I ordered the suction mount so hopefully that fixes the problem.

bobfather posted:One day, six months ago I stalled out my car. When I restarted it, I looked up and noticed my Mobius wasn’t on. I unplugged it and plugged it back in (it has a supercap) and it has worked ever since <---------------------------- true story of my only problem ever with a Mobius in 18 months of ownership. I wonder why that had any affect on it. I just bought my second mobius for our other car, this one has the new C lens.

bobfather posted:I have my Mobius wired into ignition power, not ACC. I’m betting the quick off then on again just confused it. Interesting, I got the new mobius for our golf tdi and I turn it on first to warm the glow plugs before starting it, which disable all accessory power while cranking. I wonder if I'm going to run into that issue.

Nothing too spectacular, just a Maserati launching from a light. Thankfully I had my windows open a little but it sounded awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHCAfVV30yE

Anybody have any experience with submitting a dashcam video to police to use as evidence in a hit and run? My wife says she was sideswiped today on the highway and caught it all on camera but I won't be able to pull the video from the camera until tomorrow morning.

The Locator posted:If your wife was in a hit & run, did she call the police and get a report? If so, she should have some contact information and be able to find out from the police what to do with it. If not, then she might be SOL. You need to immediately call the PD and wait on the scene for a report in a hit & run, even if it's just so your insurance doesn't decide it's your fault. She didn't call the police because in NYC they won't file a report if nobody was injured, there's a state form to fill out instead.

kastein posted:What's the current recommendation for dashcams? I'm on A118-Cs of the finest 2015-2017 vintage still and they have now hosed me multiple times by either just going out to lunch and not recording, corrupting the SD cards, and/or straight up dying. Looking for something a little more reliable, but not looking to spend a zillion dollars. I have the Viofo A119 V3 in all of our cars and have been very happy with them. e: I also had a problem with corrupted files with previous cameras so I also got the endurance SD cards that are "optimized for dashcams" whatever that means. two_beer_bishes fucked around with this message at 23:37 on Apr 25, 2024 |
