    Hi Everybody! Here is my review for the G900 mirror dash cam shown on the video th-cam.com/video/eNK6ujrWWkA/w-d-xo.html Cheers!

    Great review, I like the wolfbox product, I would like them to just stick with a rectangular screen with 4k / 2.5K and get rid of the top entry cabling as it always looks messy, this can be achieved by either making it a mirror replacement not a silicon clip over type with rear entry cables that can be bundled and run as a single cable, or if clip on is still needed just move the top mounted connections to one side, I really don't like the messy cables coming out the top especially when there are three cables, for us with pickups and rear service bodies, just a 4K / 4K would be really nice because the service body blocks any rear view's from the interior mirror, another good feature would be a light sensor that auto dims the mirror at night as I find they are too bright at night.

    I stumbled across your video, which seems very useful. You seem very knowledgeable and trustworthy, so I was just wondering if you have any videos or advice for somebody like myself who is looking for parking cams (front and back) that don't require a hard installation. People keep hitting my vehicle while it's stationary (four people since November 2023!), so it's becoming extremely annoying to leave my car parked, as you can imagine.

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thank you Dave! Ah park monitoring without hardwire is a very option now. However here are two dash cams that have this ability th-cam.com/video/uYhHgjI1oOE/w-d-xo.html and this one if you only need 1 channel th-cam.com/video/ct4AUXNGvQk/w-d-xo.html Cheers!

    Hi Alex,
    I got the G900 after I watched your videos and I am kind of satisfied with the product overall. But do you think Wolfbox is planning to upgrade its software to include more features on the same model such as Wifi or adjustable reverse guidelines like 840H?

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hi Hetav! Ah I honestly don't know, while I think it does makes sense to sell one product that has every single feature included, based on what I seen in the industry, products are usually done to target specific markets (keeping features separate allowing for multiple price points and models). But I imagine that if there is enough demand for it (and the customer is willing to pay extra to have one dash cam with all the features included) it could happen. However I will tell you, one of the most recurring comments I get is regarding what the best budget dash cam lol But only time will tell, Cheers!

    Ty Alex for another amazing review
    Few questions if I may...
    Does this camera offer the option to replace the current mirror in lieu of using the straps?
    Does this camera offer wifi to be able to access a live view at anytime?
    Can the GPS module be placed in another location? Possibly glove box, trunk, or potentially another out of view spot?
    For the rear view camera, can it be mounted upside down, and the display would flip like it does on a cellphone landscape to portrait? Reason for this question is that my rear window is tinted and not thrilled about having to put 3m tape on it for the cam. However, I do have a 3rd brake light extended housing (2020 vw jetta) on the rear deck that I could either use the 3m or even the bracket to mount, but the camera would be mounting upside down.
    Many thanks in advance for your knowledge and expertise

    Hi Alex, I have a ToGuard digital rear view mirror, it comes with a front camera and I also wire it to my Sony rearview camera at the ruck above the plate.
    I found out that the rearview camera does not work when the temperature is too high. I am not sure which part went wrong.
    1. Sometimes when I move the wire, the rearview image is back on display
    2. The front camera at the mirror works perfectly fine but the rearview camera is not bought with the mirror, so idk if there is a compatibility issue (everything works fine in cooler weather).
    Would you mind sharing some thoughts on this issue with your professional perspective? Thank you.

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  22 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Hi C! Unfortunately I have not tested the ToGuard mirror so I can't comment on how it works. I would recommend having your installer confirm the installation, I would also recommend contacting ToGuard for tech support and please keep us posted on your findings. Cheers!

    How do you rate the G900, vs the others that you have reviewed?

    • @AlexAutoFun
      @AlexAutoFun  28 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi John! It's a very good dash cam, and it's Wolfbox flagship dashcam. That being said I like to say is that there is not such thing as the best dash cam. I think the best mirror dash cam (for you) depends on what you are looking for in a mirror dash cam. I run different ones on my cars so what I usually tell people looking for the right dash cam for them is to start by picking how many cameras does it need to have (2 or 3). Now that you have narrowed your selections, consider how much you want to spend on one, that will narrow your choices even further. Then consider any special features you are looking for such as 360° video, Side Camera, Blind Spot Warning, Backup to SSD, Parking monitor without hardwire, detached cameras, Etc. Finally you would want to compare video quality of your final choices. And I just began working on a video to compare my top picks for different categories, Stay tuned, Cheers!

      @@dominicfrost8627 Hi Dominic! Oh wow, I haven't found anything rated higher that the 158°F the G900 is rated for (most mirror dash cams are only rated to 140°F). If you already gone thru two G900's I would recommend switching over a traditional dash cam (preferably one with a capacitor instead of a battery and also avoid running it at 4K as that generates a lot of heat) Here are several traditional dashcam so you can compare th-cam.com/play/PLMLNRyDJO83kyBOt58vKp166cKD_QuQ-6.html Cheers amigo!
