Hi, Just wondered if anyone finally fitted a rear facing dash cam to their slk. Not a rear view/reversing camera, not a dual purpose or hidden camera but a normal dash cam facing out of the rear window. If so could they say which cam was used and how it was mounted?. Thanks

I know that @Col has a dashcam that records front and rear facing views. I don't know which cam it is, so I've tagged Col and I'm sure he'll let you know when he sees this.

Further to Dave's post, here's what I'm using. I mount it on the vertical storage with an additional mount but you can get a similar effect using the provided suction cup to attach it to the wind deflector if you have one.

I have this one, front and back.

The video is out of sync as you have 2 folders front and back and you have to "glue" them.

I used this mount, which allows the camera to be slid off easily - But would only work in horizontal or slopping glass surface:

And this Mini or Micro USB Power is worth looking at:

Hi All

As I have upgraded my front dash cam to a BlackVue 650gw , I was thinking about putting my old Roadhawk 720hd at the back as its a very small size & will not get in the way.

Cheers

Andy
