Nice video, it explained few things about wolfbox that I needed to know. One thing about rear camera. It's not really possible that 2 megapixel and 4 megapixel cameras are both 2.5k. Well theoretically it is, but I dont think thats the case here.
You know, I included the Wolfbox supplied info but feel that they play a little fast and loose with their specs. They first made a comparison difficult, but then provided a matrix of differences, however I'm not rushing out to update mine. If I ever see that they offer a 4K camera in the back, I'll get it as that is where the camera matters most for the Grenadier. Thanks for your comments.
Thanks for the tip, I noticed that. However, that front camera box on the Grenadier and position of the mirror on the mount only allows me to point the camera a little bit over, but still doesn't allow an unobstructed view. I think it would have to sit lower in order to have a better chance at catching everything. Thank you for commenting.
Im a self installer and I used the small fuse box in front for power. Not hard but running the wires to there was time consuming. I could have used an OBD plug power adapter and not had to worry about finding the right fuses to jump off of and had plug and play. Honestly the hardest part was trying to get the cable through the rubber hose thing in the backdoor. Watching the video of how that other installer powered the mirror from the upper panel was painful to watch and amateurish if he was truly a pro. If that was my Rig i would have been upset with that install. Check the Ineos forum for very detailed information on the installs.
Thanks for your comment. I believe that my installer used this location as well for power. He said his most difficult work was in the back connecting up power to the reverse light power and a little chore to run the camera wire through that already busy tube of wires leading from the door back to the body of the car. I appreciated him being thorough, and also knowing the appropriate location for the GPS!
I understand your point and thanks for commenting. I - for a minute - thought about getting a G900 Pro and changing my G900 out, but feel they need to do a little more work on improving the rear camera, so I'll be waiting for a G950 or whatever comes next before I consider a swap and hope that overall improvements in the software have also taken place.
100% did it for the rear view. I actually didn't realize that it had a dash cam view until I researched to buy the Wolfbox. The front view is very obstructed, but being able to fill up your Grenadier with people and things in the back - and still see behind you - is really worthwhile. Thanks for your question.
It's interesting to see all the videos of how people buying the Grenadier at such high prices nevertheless have to pay dearly to find and add components/"upgrades" to make it drive straight on highways, turn easily, and even see out the back safely. Crazy.
You make a very accurate point about all of us who make an irrational purchase decision. Why would anybody buy a Grenadier knowing that it wasn't "perfect" - answer is a lot of us. We waited for a few years to get our hands on it and happily did so because it's still great in many other ways. I cannot argue your point as it's the more "intelligent" one, but even those of us who already have one look to INEOS to make some meaningful upgrades to upcoming versions of the Grenadier - and that rear view mirror is certainly one of them. Thanks for commenting!

Nicely installed...thank you for sharing
Thanks for your comment.
On my Wolfbox you can adjust the front camera by physically moving the lens

I purchased a G900 Pro after seeing your first video. I too am having the format card issue with mine. It's an "OK" unit, but I wouldn't buy it again.

So from a fellow Grenadier owner....Did you purchase the mirror for the rear visibility or for the other options?
