Nissan 370Z Forum  

Car Security does anyone use Dashcams?

Ideally off to the side a little? I've got a radar detector mounted under the rearview, so that area is spoken for.

See, that's the info I need to make a decision. Show me some options as far as mounting it.

Many of these cameras ship directly from China, and their instructions are not well reviewed before hitting the market. Here is one of those examples I found:

5.Start the car automatically recording, automatic shutdown while flameout

GrandZ45 is on a distinguished road
Default I will be getting something

Door dings and cracked windshields are part of owning a car. I will be getting something like this though. Hit and run around here has become routine. My household has been victimized by this twice (once with injuries) and I witnessed another. I am getting pretty angry about it. I would like to have a grappling hook to latch on to any car that runs into me. Sort of like a whalers harpoon. The law seems to treat it lightly if there are not major injuries. I would like to see them pinned on a short chain in the middle of the interstate.

But a camera will have to do.

Very cool video. This might be my Xmas present to myself.

Also- put your license plate somewhere else (assuming that's your front plate in the first few seconds of video). It becomes a sharp flying piece of metal in event of an accident. Your passenger will thank you.
