@ 5:29 I showed you how and where the plug the 12V plug into (front dash) @ 6:11 I showed you where and how to mount it inside the windshield What parts are missing that you need some clarity on? It's incredibly basic. (Keep in mind, this is NOT a hard-wire install and I have a separate video on that, that requires additional hardware to be purchased.)
Question: Can anyone explain the difference between plugging the USB cable into the GPS module vs. the unit itself? At 5:33 the explanation states the GSP will work with either plug-in option.
Will not void warranty but take extra caution and do some research to see how your airbag deploys, which direction, etc. and then decide where to hide the wires after to avoid the airbags ofcourse.
I also have a sun banner on the windshield, and i was wondering if i should mount it over it just to have a higher angle on video or below it like you did. Why did you placed under it ?
I intend to install it in my Freightliner truck. My windshield is very vertical, almost at an 90 degree angle of the dashboard. Now I know that the camera pivots but will it be enough for me to have a great coverage in front of my truck?
It is doubtful that you are going to charge a phone and run the dash cam at the same time on the same port. If the load attempts to draw too much current (i.e. more than 100 mA for a USB port that is rated for only 100 mA), then depending on the power supply, the voltage may sink below 5v, or the supply may stop working altogether due to a over-current shut-down mechanism
The screen turns off after 10, 20, or 30 seconds. You don't really want a bright screen glaring in your eyes while you're driving especially at night. I just peek up behind the mirror to check it's in position and then I never look at it again lol. That's literally the only place you'd want to install a dashcam unless you want 2ft of wire hanging down to the middle point of your windshield???? I mean you can place it wherever you really want haha it's up to you!
Does the 3m sticker hold good? I live in a dry very hot in the summer climate and I've tried the suction cups mounting on dash cams and they aren't good at all.
You can't take it off the power if that's what you mean unfortunately not but you can pull the memory card out etc. the A129 has wifi via phone app capability
Yo you don't really want it to display your speed. Insurance might deny you if you accident while above limit
Um how else is he supposed to show everyone how fast his WSX can go
Agreed, unless you always drive below speed limit.
Loving your Subaru
"This is an in-depth installation guide on wiring" where is that???

@@SpencerHogg in-depth is not the same as basic

depending how you mount it you may not be able to use one of the ports. Both work to keep the camera on
what track is playing at the intro of your video? It's so smooth to hear
do you know if routing wires behind pillars and headliners, does this void the car warranty?

what are the black felt pads for? (square shaped) mine came with 4 in the box, but have no idea what they're for

Why do you installed behind the rearview mirror?
What about the micro sd card? What brand did you pick up and how did you get to record?
Where can I see the hardwire install
Probably you didn't use the felt stick on part to reduce the rattle in the audio, or your CPL filter rattles when you accelerate
Good tip!

The provided 12V adapter is 3.1A which is more than enough to charge two phones even
How have you hid the wires in your WRX?
My car has usb port can i use that or do i got to use the power outlet?
Connect and try. Should be OK. I suggest to hardwire it to your car installation though.
Have you upgraded to a viofo a139?
Can that be connected to a Android in car tablet?
Was there a piece of plastic sheet to stick to the glass making it easier to remove?
Yes it is included, got mine in package.
Yeah!
just wondering how can you see the screen when its behind the mirror and it can't be adjusted because there's no swivel mount?
The screen turns off after 10, 20, or 30 seconds. You don't really want a bright screen glaring in your eyes while you're driving especially at night.

Nice video. Is this easy to remove.from windscreen to install into another vehicle?
Yup! It has a quick way to detatch it off!
Does the 3m sticker hold good? I live in a dry very hot in the summer climate and I've tried the suction cups mounting on dash cams and they aren't good at all.
Holding up very good for me thus far!! Over a few months no problem now!
@@SpencerHogg Thank you for replying and it makes my decision easier.
Can you take it off the gps to view the footage at a closer look or will it cut off if you take it off the gps?
You can't take it off the power if that's what you mean unfortunately not but you can pull the memory card out etc. the A129 has wifi via phone app capability
can the MPH tracking be removed ?
It can be yes and can be changed to KMH too
self incriminating lol
does the prebuffering parking still work when it's plugged in with usb?
I believe so !
Is that a MT09 I see?
Can we use this without the GPS mount?
Yes
5:40 why do you need the HK3 ACC for parking mode?
HK3 ACC is a hard-wire kit, without that kit, you won't have power (unless your 12v outlet provides power when vehicle is turned off?)
How tf it's an "installation" video? Congrad's, you know how to peel n stick.
Does the parking mode drain vehicle battery?
Rick Harrison That’s why you need the parking mode HK3-ACC Hardwire that monitors voltage and cuts the camera recording off when it gets too low.
Spencer Hogg is it a trustworthy bit? It would suck having my battery drained thanks to a malfunction in the wire or something hah
Subaru is SHIT ;)
