Think it may be a good idea to remove the speed shown on the play back...............Just saying !!

Different speed limits in Wales then.

That was the only thing that bothered me when I had a dashcam on my Bird for commuting, it showed my speed.

Now I have a slow Tiger, not so much of an issue (y)

I fitted an Innovv K3 to my bird a couple of days ago. Fitted the cameras by the side of the license plate and on the right hand mirrir bracket.

I'm really impressed with the quality but getting my android to connect was, and still is, a bit of a faff.


I'll do some pictures of how and where I mounted it all at the weekend, im on nights this week.

Edit: the youtube compression is awful, the actual footage is really clear. You can pause it as you pass cars, signs et. and read them clearly!
Why is it in slow mo?:risas3:

Another hour in the garage and have now mounted the front camera on the mirror extender (Danbow gave me a clue - cheers mate!) and I'm now happy with it. I figured that a mirror extender is fairly cheap if I fucked it up. The forward view is now unobstructed as it's fairly close to the front of the extender. I have Jaws extenders and they are made of a fairly dense material so you can drill it and use a self tapping screw to aid the self adhesive pad. I also cut a groove in the back of it to take the cable inside the boot and through the hole for the indicator wires. Don't drop the connector when you take off the mirror or you will have to loosen the cockpit fairing to find the bastard.

By any chance did you drop the connector when you took off the mirror and had to loosen the cockpit fairing to find the bastard?

Well I finally got around to finishing the install of my VIOFO dashcam.
Took a while because everytime I made my mind up about how to do it and had to order something, it would turn out to be coming from China!

Not road tested yet as I need to put it through an MOT.

That is very, very neat(y).

Have to ask why you have your tartan pyjamas hanging in the garage though….
