I usually put some rain-x on the lens and clean it regularly. So during rainy days, there's no water on the lens.
 for a great install. It's a great camera with a great price. I know there are other cameras that are better, but they cost atleast 6 times more! 
Thank you for sharing. |
It looks like you had your cam for a decent time now per time stamp of your thread and if it still working today, that gives some peace of mind to me. Bad batch can happen, unfortunately. Bang for the buck, I'm very pleased with mine as well.
Thank you very much for the tip on the lens maintenance and the screw paint! On the paint, I thought about getting those Testor model paints (I think acrylic) and painting the screws black. It's cheap and they last for a long time and resilient since my buddy used the same stuff on his FD's calipers (red paint).

Thank you!!! But those harness were really on there! For me, it seemed easier to remove the external assembly so it could separate from their respective holes when I was doing the headunit install. I was afraid to break them too. But it was useful because after the headunit install, I wanted to test the headunit so I just use that little rubber thing with the metal contacts in the start button housing and turned the car to "accessories," with the battery reconnected, of course. I'll keep this in mind next time I have to take those buttons off. The more I learn about the car, the better.
