  • This week we install a wolfbox g900 Digital rear view mirror, dash cam combination into our 2003 Jeep wrangler TJ. We Will never drive a jeep without one of these ever again. We chose the g900 model because despite the low price tag, it records in 4k. We were both very shocked by the crazy high quality display.

    Thanks for video and great instructions! Do you think that rear camera can be instead installed in the front bumper and used as front cam when wheeling? I already have back up cam on my Wrangler and have been looking for a good front cam to get a view of the ground when going up hills and obstacles

    try putting a little rain-x or wax on the rear camera lense, that should prevent the rain drops from accumulating on the lense.

    This is a great product - but doesn't work at all when the top is off - I can't see the camera view - only the mirror reflection - I have to return mine as I have the roof off 90% of the summer and that's when I needed it most. Keep up the good work on your channel.

    • @Garagecouple
      @Garagecouple  Рік тому

      I see. We haven't tried it with the top off yet but can see how that would happen. I don't think any screen in that position would be visible in the bright sun. Not even our phones. Anyway, thanks for the kind words and support@

    I was interested since it's been 2 months with the Wolfbox camera, you still have a favorable opinion, how is the mirror (not digital camera)?
    A few years ago (5) I had a “different brand” earlier generation camera/mirror and the traditional mirror was wavy and not great.
    Recent thoughts?
    Thanks

    Do a followup during the hot summer days & maybe after a year of it being on your rearview mirror. Let us know if the heat affects the cameras & also if when it's hot does the mirror stay put? Two things I found to be the downfall with this type of camera.

      Everything works great but you can't see the camera view - mirror takes over unless the roof is on. Too much light and the screen can't fight with brightness. Works great with roof on.
