" ... Installation was as expected for a wired camera and except for the glitches that came with trying to configure the camera to stay on full time with the running lights on (instead of reverse) it worked well for the first few months. ... Although I am unable to install it for another week or so I was so impressed by their efforts to make things right that I wanted to change my review and let customers know that if there are problems to contact this company through this process versus the website and they really DO seem interested in good customer service. ... "

" ... The supplied instructions are good and install went very well and it worked good to run the wiring for the back cam along/under the right side headliner. ...

" ... The next cool thing about this mirror is that it has built-in LCD screen that lets me see what it is recording and it all has PIP feature so I can see the rear camera at the same time. ... "
" ... This one is of normal viewing quality. ... "
" ... I have a smaller one that is great, but this one is probably my new favorite because of how big the screen is and the fact that is has a rear view camera as well. ... "
" ... Really increases my viewing area. ... "
" ... All in all I'd recommend the product and like the idea of cam display right in the rear mirror (standby/screen saver - time settable) and not a separate display which are cheaper in price (not factory look) but not worth it in my opinion. ... "
" ... It works pretty good with the car Dvr the screen look clear at nite but in the day time it's hard to see on the mirror screen because it reflected with sun light. ... "

" ... I really like the mirror mount design. ... "
" ... So if you don’t set a time out the mirror will stay on the entire time showing you the forward facing camera and making it difficult to use as a rearview mirror. ...
